Standard Occupancy and Price Calculation in Inventory

What does Standard Occupancy mean?💡​

The Standard Occupancy is the standard number of adult paxes of the room.

How can I calculate prices according to the Standard Occupancy?💡​

  • Case 1:

    For a Standard Occupancy=2 and the following product loaded:

    <BaseByGuestAmts>
    	<BaseByGuestAmt NumberOfGuests = "2" AmountAfterTax="100.00"/>
    </BaseByGuestAmts>

    The price of two paxes will be 100 (2*(100⁄2) ), and the price for one pax won't be returned.

    Important:

    Note that prices per pax under the Standard Occupancy must be specified and prices for babies under the Standard Occupancy will be 0.

  • Case 2:

    The Standard Occupancy is used for calculating prices above it:

    For a Standard Occupancy=2 and the following product loaded:

    <BaseByGuestAmts>
    	<BaseByGuestAmt NumberOfGuests = "2" AmountAfterTax="100.00"/>
    </BaseByGuestAmts>
    <AdditionalGuestAmounts>
    	<AdditionalGuestAmount MaxAdditionalGuests = "1" Amount = "40.00" AgeQualifyingCode = "10"/>
    </AdditionalGuestAmounts>

    The price of one pax won't be returned, the price of two paxes will be 100 (2*(100⁄2)), and the price for three paxes will be 190 ((100⁄2) + (100⁄2) + ((100⁄2) + 40))
