Stay Informed with Real-Time Rate Change Alerts

Never miss an important rate adjustment! Our new User Warning on Rate Change feature ensures you’re always in the loop when reservation quotes change.

Why It Matters:

Dynamic Pricing in RMS automatically adjusts rates based on occupancy and time rules. However, when making a reservation, rate changes can sometimes occur between the initial quote and saving the booking—potentially leading to unexpected pricing.

How It Works:

Now, when creating a reservation, if the saved quote differs from the originally displayed rate, a pop-up alert will appear, notifying you of the updated amount. This real-time warning helps you stay informed, maintain pricing accuracy, and avoid surprises.
