What you need to know

Out Of Service (OOS): the room is fully functional and has only minor cosmetic defects. It is still included in your availability and can be used by guests. In the room rack, it is visually indicated with a crossed out water drop icon.
Out Of Order (OOO): the room is not functional and cannot be used by guests. It is deducted from availability. In the room rack, it is visually indicated with a crossed out shopping cart icon.
Out Of Inventory(OOI): the room if not functional and needs long term maintenance work. It is not only deducted from your availability, but also from your total house count. This means occupancy will not be calculated based on your total physical unit count, but rather on the reduced one, which influences key metrics as well as price recommendations of revenue management solutions. In the room rack, it is visually indicated with a stop symbol icon.

In the room rack, click on +Add and New maintenance slot.
Specify the unit(s), the type of maintenance slot, and dates.
To edit or delete a maintenance slot, click on the slot and make the desired changes in the pop up window.
