Activate Yield Management in Agent Channels
After a 'Yield Profile' has been built, activate Yield Management for your selected allocation in a specific agent. See Activate Yield Management Yield Management allows you to choose which rates you want to apply to individual Agent Channels. You can add as many or as few rate plans as you like to each of your Yield Profiles. Easily view how Yielded rates are affecting your Agent Channels with a ‘Yield Grid’ that allows you to see how rates are being set, per Agent Channel, based on a calendar view. This tool, visually shows how rates are being affected to each Agent Channel. Then, to get even more 'refined', you can allocate to which Agent Channels you want the Yield feature enabled. Thus, you could effect your TWIN rates to Booking.com and Expedia, but not effect the TWIN rate allocated to your front desk.
Yield Grid
Finally, in order to easily view how Yielded rates are affecting your Agent Channels, we have a 'Yield Grid' that allows you to see how rates are being set, per Agent Channel, based on a calendar view. This tool, when set next to the 'normal' Rate Grid', visually shows how rates are being affected to each Agent Channel. Note that the example below assumes that the Agent Channel has a 'Rate Loading' set in addition to the Yield, making the Rate first 'loaded' by 11% and then 'yielded' by the amount set in the Yield Profile.. Thus there are two modifying calculations being applied to the rate via this Agent Channel.
