This page is about the menu PRICES >YIELD OPTIMISER and explains how to create rules to automatically adjust prices.

__TOC__

The yield ~~optimiser~~ automatically ~~adjusts~~ prices based on ~~availability and time~~ before check-in.

=Summary=

~~Prices~~ can ~~be adjusted~~ up or down. Multiple rules can be created and will work together.

Each rule can be assigned to one or more rooms. A rule will only adjust the price when ~~it's~~ trigger condition is met and if the room multiplier is not manually over-ridden.

The idea of the yield optimizer is to automatically adjust prices based on demand shortly before check-in.

You can set up rules to adjust your prices up or down. Multiple rules can be created and will work together.

Each rule can be assigned to one or more rooms. A rule will only adjust the price when its trigger condition is met and if the room multiplier is not manually over-ridden.

The multiplier will apply to all prices. If you use Fixed Prices you can deactivate the multiplier by setting "Allow Multiplier" = No in the Summary tab of the Fixed Price.

Examples: The regular price per night is €100. 40% will lower the price to €40. 150% will raise the price to €150. 100% will leave the price unchanged.

The percentage to which a price is changed by the yield optimizer will show in the CALENDAR with a blue background. These automatic values can be manually over-ridden. Manual overrides will have a white background~~. In the CALENDAR you can also set individual dates or days of the week to "manual" to override the rules~~.

The maximum value is 250%.

~~Note:~~ The yield optimizer will ~~not~~ override manual ~~multipliers~~.

You can choose the rule not to apply for channel management.

<span style="color:#fe746c;“ >{{#fas:exclamation-triangle}} </span> The yield optimizer will NOT override manually entered multipliers. To remove a manual rule go to the Calendar, click in the Price multiplier row, select 'Auto' from the drop-down list and enter a date range This will allow any Yield Optimiser rule to be applied.

== Trigger ==

Set the condition when the prices should be changed. Rules will trigger on a per date basis so they will only trigger on dates which meet the trigger condition.

A rule can be applied to bookings with arrival up to 30 days in advance. It can be restricted to a shorter period.

A rule can be applied to bookings with arrival up to 30 days in advance. It can be restricted to a shorter period or a time window.

A rule can be set to apply when a certain number of rooms is available on the night.

Line 50:

The rule will be applied to the ticked rooms.

Multiple rules can apply at the same time and the ~~percentage~~ changes will ~~be multiplied together~~. i.e. ~~two rules,~~ 120% ~~and~~ 150% ~~triggering will adjust~~ the ~~price by 180~~%.

Multiple rules can apply at the same time and the changes will accumulate.

Example: Original price = 100€, Rule 1 = 120%, Rule 2 = 150%. After the application of both rules the price will come to 180€.

Explanation:

*120% of 100€ = '''120'''€.

*150% of '''120'''€ = 180€.

Note: The order of the rules does NOT matter, because:

*150% of 100€ = '''150'''€.

*120% of '''150'''€ = 180€.

~~Note~~: We recommend you check carefully that your rules work as expected.
