Overview
The Advanced Dynamic Pricing Calendar allows for further customization of the calendar by resorts to enable color-coding that correlates with either POS inventory or dynamic pricing level inventory to denote “Sold Out,” “Limited” and “Plenty” for each calendar date. Different colors will display on each calendar day depending on POS inventory or dynamic pricing level numbers and how they relate to the globally predetermined thresholds. The enhanced calendar also features language strings that allow for further customization of the legend and the calendar boxes.
