Account Room Types are the room types set up for the account. They can be used as part of the definition of Accommodation Blocks at the event. Room types must exist before you can add any Accommodation Blocks to an event. These room types are recorded at the account level and are available in any event.

The room types currently set up in the account are listed in a table with the following columns: Room Code, Description, Occupancy, and Action.
| Room Code | Description | Occupancy | Action | |---|---|---|---|
To show room types that have been deleted, click Show Inactive. The Actions column then includes Restore Room Type instead of Delete, and the Show Inactive button becomes Hide Inactive.

Fields
- Room Code is the unique code identifying this room type. It is used in the planner's reports and select lists. Example: "DBL".
- Description is the description or "name" of this room type. It is used in registration forms and email messages. Example: "Double Room".
- Occupancy is the maximum number of occupants from the drop-down list. The allowed range is 1 - 10.
Editing and Deleting Room Types
- If you change the name of a room type, the new name is reflected in all events in which the room type is used.
- You cannot change the Occupancy of a room type, or delete a room type, if it is already in use. You would need to delete all associated accommodation blocks first.
