  • Room Night Forecast: Forecasted occupied rooms corresponding to the RMS price.
  • Room ADR Forecast: Simulated forecast in number of rooms; the figure corresponding to the price in the input field.

  • KPIs: On the right side of the graphical representation of the simulation, a legend with this information is displayed:
      • The Room Nights OTB and Room RevPAR KPIs also show the variation to the optimal level. This shows the simulated impact on the KPI between your selected pricing decision and the RMS recommended pricing decision.
      • A small arrow is displayed next to the variations of each KPI. A green upward arrow (↑) if the variance is positive, or a red downward arrow (↓) if negative. If the variation is null, no arrow is displayed.
      • If the current price falls outside the optimized price range for any of the room categories, no simulation information is displayed. The simulation donuts and legend will show the OTB and optimal information only.

You can use the filters on this screen to select a date range and apply day of week filters. See, Applying filters.

After modifying the price, the KPIs are updated to display the new values and variations. You can publish the prices after selecting and validating the pricing strategy for each day.
