Understand the Today page

Use the main areas on Today to get an initial view of property performance, pricing opportunities, and other demand context:

  • Performance: Review key property performance metrics for the selected period.
  • Urgent opportunities: Review pricing opportunities that Cloudbeds RMS has identified for attention.
  • This week's events: Review upcoming event context that may be relevant to demand around nearby stay dates.
  • Active campaigns: Review Guest Marketing (CRM) campaign activity available for the property.

You do not need to act on every area. Use Today to identify what deserves a closer look, then continue in the RMS area that matches the decision you need to make.

Review property performance

The Performance section gives you a quick view of how the property is performing for the selected period. Review these metrics to understand current results before looking more closely at pricing opportunities.

Metric What it tells you
Room Revenue Revenue generated from room sales for the selected period.
Occupancy The percentage of available rooms that are occupied.
ADR Average Daily Rate, or the average room rate for occupied rooms.
RevPAR Revenue per Available Room, which relates room revenue to the rooms available to sell.

The comparison indicators shown below the metrics help you compare the selected period with previous performance. Use the direction and amount of the change as context when reviewing current results.

The performance chart shows how performance changes across the selected period. Select View analytics to continue to the Analytics tab for a deeper performance review.

The animation below shows how the Performance section changes as you review the available period and metric information.

Review urgent pricing opportunities

Urgent opportunities highlight stay dates where Cloudbeds RMS has identified a pricing action worth reviewing. An opportunity can show the stay date, current rate, recommended rate, and expected revenue impact.

An expanded opportunity can also provide additional context, such as the factors contributing to the recommended rate and the forecast impact of the proposed change.

In the expanded example below, the Price breakdown shows the factors contributing to the recommended rate, while Forecast impact shows the projected effect on Revenue, Occupancy, ADR, and RevPAR.

Review the information shown on the opportunity before deciding whether to take action:

  1. Check the stay date to confirm when the recommendation applies.
  2. Compare the current rate with the recommended rate.
  3. Review the expected revenue impact as additional decision context.
  4. If the opportunity is expanded, review the available pricing and forecast context before making your decision.
  5. Use the available opportunity controls to review or accept the proposed pricing action when appropriate.

 The expected revenue impact is an estimate intended to support your decision. Review it together with the stay date, current rate, recommended rate, and other available pricing context before taking action.

To review more detail for a specific opportunity, select More info on the expanded date. This opens a detailed pricing window where you can review room-type recommendations, competitor pricing, forecast impact, and available pricing controls for that stay date.

The animation below shows the path from an expanded Today opportunity into the detailed pricing window for that stay date.

To review all pricing opportunities together, select View all at the top of the Urgent opportunities section. This opens Calendar for a broader stay-date pricing review.

Review events and active campaigns

Events and campaign activity provide additional context alongside property performance and pricing opportunities. The information available can vary by property.

 Events availability: Events are generally available for properties with 40 or more units. In some supported locations, Events may also be enabled for smaller properties.

The following sections explain how Events and campaign activity can support your Today review.

This week's events

This week's events provides upcoming event context that may help you understand demand around nearby stay dates. When Events is available, the panel may show upcoming events or indicate that there are no events during the displayed period.

If an event is labeled High Impact, use it as an additional signal when reviewing demand and pricing for the surrounding dates.

When upcoming events are available, the panel shows the event name, date, category, and location. Select View all events to continue to the Events tab.
