Property managers can block and unblock rooms using the OYO OS. Blocking refers to a room not being available to be sold due to its physical condition; pertaining to repair and maintenance or a fault in the infrastructure of the room.
Things to Note:
Blocking cannot be done when a room is checked in.
A block cannot be overlapped, i.e. a room cannot be blocked twice for the same date.
As default, AGM/ captain/ OPS Manager approval will be mandatory for blocking the rooms through HMS.
A room can be blocked by following the steps below:
Step 1: From the Home screen of the OYO OS, click on the Rooms tab.
Step 2: In the rooms section, click on the Block Room Details button.
Step 3: On the Block Rooms Detail page, click on Block rooms.
Step 4: After completing Step 3, follow the below steps:
i. Select the rooms that need to be blocked.
ii. Select the dates for which the blocking is required.
iii. Select a reason for the blocking request.
iv. Click on Block Now, an approval request will be sent to Captain/ AGM/ Ops Manager
The rooms will be blocked from check-in for all dates including the start and end date as updated by the PM in the Step ii.
Step 5: Once the Captain/AGM/Ops Manager has approved or rejected the blocking request, a notification will pop up on the OYO OS.
Please contact your property AGM in case any other clarifications are required.
