Account Room Types

Account Room Types define the room types for the account. Room Types 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. Room types added here are available in any event.

The room types currently set up in the account are listed in a table. The table has columns: Room Code, Description, Occupancy, and Action.

The Action column includes icons for editing and deleting the room type. The Edit icon allows editing the room type. The Delete icon allows deleting the room type.

To show room types that have been deleted, click Show Inactive. The Actions column then includes Restore Room Type instead of Delete. The Show Inactive button becomes Hide Inactive.

To add a new room type, type values in the three fields below the list of room types, and click Save room type.

Room Code – (Required) The unique code identifying this room type, used in the planner's reports and select lists. Example: "DBL".

Description – (Required) The description or "name" of this room type, used in registration forms and email messages. Example: "Double Room".

Occupancy – (Required) Select the maximum number of occupants from the drop-down list (1 - 10).

Notes re Editing or 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.
