Room allocation

To allocate a room on the rooming list, the following options are available in the column Room:

Ø To search for a suitable room and to select a room according to the guest’s preferences, click Vacant rooms .

Ø To let SIHOT find and choose a room, click Automatic room allocation .

Figure 57: Allocating a room via rooming list

You can remove an allocation again as long as the guest hasn’t checked in (thereafter, you need to conduct a room move).

Ø To delete the room allocation click Release next to the room number.

NOTE:
If the allocated room was of a different category than the one reserved, SIHOT will display a query as to wether the guest should remain in the allocated category or revert back to the reservation category.

Figure 58: Query when releasing an allocation of a different category

Use registry key [811225] to configure that the category on the rooming list must always be the same as the reserved category. I.e. you cannot allocate a room of a different category in the rooming list.
