Configuring Room Classes

Prerequisites for Room Classes

Use room classes to group a collection of room types with similar characteristics together; such as all room types on club floors or all apartment accommodation. You can create room classes to group similar room types for easier and more highly controlled room inventory management and statistical reporting. Dashboard tiles, application search panels and reports can be filtered by room class.

Note:

Activating the Room Class OPERA Control after inventory and pseudo room types are configured will result in all existing room types being assigned the default ALL room class. Ensure you update room type configuration and select the required room class.

When the Multi Property OPERA Control is active, new room classes are created by selecting the Template tab. After creating the template, you can copy room classes to specific properties using the Copy action. For more information, see Copying Configuration Codes to Multiple Properties
