1 and WINDOWS Management Tools Introducing the “Management/Statistics”, “Reservation Management”, “Graphical Room Status”, and Reservation Calendar” Programs The installation guides for all programs are located at the end of this presentation

2 Introduction This power point presentation is built to provide you with an overview of these Windows Management Tools, as well as installation assistance. This power point initially presents an overview of the capabilities of both programs. The big deal is the flexibility in accessing and displaying data. The last part of this presentation will assist you with the installation of the programs. Both programs need to know where your program is located and specifically be pointed to the data files.

3 With the Management/Statistics Report program you are provided daily, month to date, and year to date, calculations and displays for room revenue, rooms sold (Rack and Discounted), rooms out of service, rooms provided at comp, rooms in service, and even your ADR and revenue per guest. You are provided with two different presentations … one for STATISTICS and another for REVENUE & RECEIPTS. The STATISTICS is the only presentation that provides year to date tracking. Track and View your property’s activities …. The program works very much like the Management Summary built into the regular system, but with much more display and printing flexibility. We have also added Year to Date capabilities in 6 month windows. You can display the current year and last year. It links to fiscal year criteria established in your “setupinn” ini file.

The “DISPLAY” options are provided on the right side of the display. Clicking on “VIEW” will provide the option to switch to the REVENUE & RECEIPTS view. Activating daily presentations is easy. Just click on the calendar for the month and day to view. The “Report Date” will reflect your Fiscal Year” start month that is setup…. Default will be standard 12 month calendar. COMP reflects room nights accumulated by guests who had “COMP” as the room rate. A zero (0) rate will not reflect a COMP, but just a discounted room.

5 The Statistics Reporter Select the quarter to View, and Print out any displayed quarter. This presentation mode provides quarterly statistics with the totals for each month,and the calculations for the associated YTD. The system enables you to select the quarters for the current year and for the previous year. “GTD No Shows” reflects the number of guests who had guaranteed reservations but were not checked in using the CHECK IN RESERVATION mode, cancelled, or changed to another date.

6 The Statistics Reporter Select the week to View, and Print out any displayed 7 day span. This presentation mode provides day by day, and printing, in any selected 7 day window span. The system enables you to select whether you want to view the current or previous year, then the desired month and finally the week span. “GTD No Shows” reflects the number of guests who had guaranteed reservations but were not checked in using the CHECK IN RESERVATION mode, cancelled, or changed to another date. COMP reflects room nights accumulated by guests who had “COMP” as the room rate. A zero (0) rate will not reflect a COMP, but just a discounted room.
