The Booking Production Report creates a detailed report of all bookings made by ALL Users and Sources. It is primarily used to analyze the volume of booking activity and the room revenue generated by user and source.
This report is often used to track the "Pace of Bookings" (sometimes called a 'pace report') to see how productive booking generation is for a property during specific times.
This is a perfect report for analyzing the booking productivity of of your staff, agents, online channels, etc. There is an optional setting to "Subtotal by User" to sort the report information by user.
Many properties have deposit policies that can be automatically enforced when a Guest books direct (ie with the property or via a Booking Engine), but that staff has to manually do when a booking arrives via an OTA or GDS channel. This report provide a Folio Balance column that easily shows which bookings made 'this week', for example, have a deposit applied and which don't (folio balance = $0) in order to easily focus on obtaining that deposit.
If you want to see a summary of the total bookings by each Source or User, use the Bookings Report .
To use the Booking Production Report to compare productivity to previous time frames, save the reports to Excel or .csv to graph the comparisons. See Saving Reports to Excel
