Move Allocations Between Allocations and Sub-Allocations

Again, there are 2 methods to do this.

  1. If only one allocation is set up on the system for a supplier with different Allocation Splits and a few individual days need to be moved around between sub allocations, then it is easier to reduce the amount on the sub allocation and then increase the one being moved to. This is done by changing the Max column value. This is the same procedure as covered in Example 1 – Edit Individual Cells.
  2. To move more than one date at a time use the ‘Move’ button .

The exact number to be moved needs to be known – from which Allocation Split and to which Allocation Split. In the example above, for the period 10 – 12 Jul, there are 4 rooms loaded against STANDARD Split (of which 2 have been used) and 0 Rooms available for T1 Split. 1 Room is going to be moved from STANDARD to T1 for 10 – 12 Jul.

The system will not move rooms that it does not have. If one of the days in the date range specified if fully booked, no availability, then none will be transferred.

Likewise selecting the ‘All’ checkbox will move all the available rooms for the dates selected.

Once the required entries have been made on this screen, click the OK button to save.

The method above is also used if more than one allocation has been entered for the supplier. Allocation can be moved between the different allocations, as all allocations and sub allocations for the supplier will be listed.
