Analytics
Purpose and who uses it
Hotel ManagerAccountantRestaurant MgrReports answer what happened in one area; Analytics reads across areas and says what it means.
Analytics is the manager's view. Where Reports lists the figures of one area, Analytics puts occupancy next to rate, rooms next to the restaurant, this period next to the last, and writes a few sentences at the top about what stands out: a rise bought with discounts, a weak weekday, one booking channel doing most of the work, a month heading into the red.
Hotel Managers have full access and can export any tab. The Accountant and the Restaurant Manager read it. Nothing here changes data: it is a window on the same bookings, folios, tickets, tasks and expenses the other screens write.
Screen anatomy
Six tabs sharing one period bar; insights, figures and blocks on each.
- 1TabsOverview · Rooms · Restaurant · Guests · Operations · Forecast. Switching tabs keeps the period.
- 2Period barPresets or two dates, up to a year, plus Compare with previous period. The Forecast always starts today whatever is chosen.
- 3What the figures sayUp to six sentences the system derives from the figures. They only appear when the numbers justify them; an empty period says nothing.
- 4Figures and blocksThe KPI strip with the change against the previous period, then charts and tables. Tables sort by any column.
- 6ExportsExcel and PDF of the open tab for Analytics full access. Insights are printed as notes.
The six tabs
What each tab measures and how.
| Field | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Overview | Occupancy, ADR, RevPAR, TRevPAR (rooms plus restaurant per available night), total revenue, nights sold, average stay, restaurant spend per occupied night, cancelled or no-show share, booking lead time, returning guests, the next 30 nights booked. Revenue mix per week, occupancy per night, rate per week, rooms on the books, occupancy by weekday, bookings by source. | |
| Rooms | Occupancy per night, ADR and RevPAR per week, room type performance (nights, occupancy, revenue, ADR, RevPAR), occupancy by room type and weekday, length of stay and lead time distributions, lost stays per week. | |
| Restaurant | Sales per day, the weekday and hour heatmap, sales by outlet and by menu category, top items, average ticket per week, covers per day, takings by tender, sales by server, the voided-line rate. | |
| Guests | New against returning per month, tiers, countries, top guests by spend, lead time by source, group against individual, receipts per stay. | |
| Operations | Housekeeping tasks and turnaround per week, rooms readied per attendant, work orders per week and by priority, the open orders, attendance per week, stock in and out, low stock now. | |
| Forecast | Rooms and room revenue on the books for each of the next 30 nights, arrivals and departures per day, pickup over the last 14 days, the same 30 nights last year, and the month projected: income to date plus room revenue on the books, against expenses to date plus the 30-day run-rate. |
Reading the insights
Each sentence names a figure, its direction and what usually causes it.
- 1TrendsA figure that moved five percent or more against the previous period is named, with whether that is good or bad for the hotel (a rise in refunds is not).
- 2PatternsOccupancy up while the rate fell points at discounting; the strongest and weakest weekday suggest where an offer helps; one source above half of bookings is a dependency worth knowing.
- 3ThresholdsCancellations above fifteen percent, voided lines above five percent, cleans over an hour, ten or more open work orders, stays under one and a half nights: each has a sentence with the usual remedy.
- 4ForecastHow much of the next 30 nights is sold, when the first full night is, whether the month projects into the red, and how many expenses are still awaiting approval.
