Occupancy Rate

This section displays yesterday's (1) and the current month's (2) occupancy data.

  • Availability: Total number of rooms minus occupied and blocked rooms.
  • Occupancy: Percentage of rooms sold divided by total rooms available. Blocked rooms and out-of-service rooms are included in the Total Rooms Available. It complies with USALI standards.
  • Blocks and Holds: Total number of rooms blocked.

Occupancy Example

Total room inventory = 30

  • Availability formula: Total number of rooms on property minus occupied rooms minus blocked rooms (30 - 9 - 4 = 17 or 100% - 30% - 13.33% = 56.67%).
  • Occupancy formula: Total number of rooms occupied divided by total number of rooms (9 rooms occupied / 30 rooms total = 30%).
  • Blocks and Holds formula: Total number of rooms blocked divided by total number of rooms (4 rooms blocked / 30 rooms total = 13.33%).

FAQ

Why does this report use Service Date instead of Transaction Date?

The report uses Service Date as an editable date to associate revenue and expenses with the correct stay or service period. The Transaction Date/Time remains immutable to ensure accurate accounting.

How is transaction data handled in the Daily Financial Report?

Transaction data is pulled from the Accounting Service, which provides detailed transaction-level records aligned with USALI standards. Transactions are not editable, and changes are recorded through equal and opposite reversal entries.

What revenue is used in the Average Daily Rate (ADR) calculation?

The ADR calculation uses Total Room Revenue, which includes room rate, no-shows, and manual room revenue adjustments. Inclusive and exclusive taxes and fees are excluded.

How are items and services revenue calculated?

Items and Services Revenue includes revenue from items and services added to reservations, including any associated adjustments.

How does split inventory affect rooms counted in this report?

When Split Inventory is used, room counts apply only to physical rooms, using their relationship to virtual room types.

Can I email the Daily Financial Report automatically?

Automatic emailing is not available for this report. The Daily Financial Report can be downloaded using the Export To option and shared as needed.

What are Accounting Codes in the Daily Financial Report?

Accounting Codes categorize transactions following USALI standards and are used to group revenue and payments consistently for reporting.

In this report, the codes are bucketed as follows:
