Understanding restrictions
Inventory restrictions help you maximise revenue across your connected channels. You can apply these from either:
Inventory grid (go to Distribution > Inventory)
Rate plans (go to Rooms and rates > Rate plans)
Available restrictions
Stop sell: Closes availability for specific dates
Closed to arrivals (CTA): Prevents check-ins on specific dates
Closed to departures (CTD): Prevents check-outs on specific dates
Min. length of stay (MinLOS): Sets the minimum number of nights required for a booking
Max. length of stay (MaxLOS): Sets the maximum number of nights for a booking
Managing restrictions in the inventory grid
Navigate to Distribution > Inventory
Use the dropdown menu to select your restriction type (Stop sell, CTA, CTD, Min stay, Max stay)
Make changes by:
Updating individual cells for specific dates
