How to exclude Areas from statistical reporting in RMS.
 

Overview

An Area is the physical space available for a Reservation within a Category.

All physical Areas setup in RMS, excluding Interconnecting Master Areas, should be set to include in Statistics unless there is an operational requirement to exclude the Area eg. permanent staff accommodation.

Excluding an Area from statistics will ignore any Reservation in that Area when calculating statistics on reports unless the option 'Ignore Statistics' is selected on the report.

Including an Area in statistics will include any Reservation in that Area for statistics calculated on reports, such as the Night Audit Report, Occupancy Report and Marketing Report.
