Market Segment is the highest hierarchy. Revenues are segregated by sources of income to be able to build appropriate statistics. The most important segregation is based on market segment. A market segment is e.g
- Corporate
- Direct Reservation
- Walk In
- House Use
- Government
- Travel Agent
It is free for the user to define its own market segments.
There are however 2 system-defined segments: These default segments are not editable.
- Internet
- OTA Channel
Remarks: If the status of a market segment is "House Use Yes". Rooms booked under any market segment with a status house use "yes" will lower the actual inventory of the property.
Adding a new market segment program is "All Property", meaning if you add a new one in property A and you have multiple properties within one group of installations it will also appear in property B. Editing a market segment is "Per Property".
