How does 'Hotel Rules' impact the Unit Occupancy Report?

The Unit Occupancy Report reflects Room Assignment and Unassignment dates. Your community's Hotel Rules setting determines how the move-out date is calculated, which changes how move-outs appear on this report. 

For additional information about this setting and its impact on other reports, see this Hotel Rules guide.

Core Reporting Differences

• With Hotel Rules enabled, the report data always matches the Financial Move Out Date because Hotel Rules ties the Financial Move Out Date to the Room Unassignment Date (advancing it one day past the date you selected in the Move Out pane).
• With Hotel Rules disabled, the Financial Move Out Date and Room Unassignment Date can be separate, and the report reflects the Room Unassignment Date.

What the Report Shows

Move Out column (labeled "-") shows a move-out ("-1") on the resident's Financial Move Out Date — the date displayed in the Move Out Information section at the top of their Moved Out profile.

Res Days at the top of each table count occupancy through the day of the Financial Move Out Date.

Move Outs table at the bottom of the report displays the Financial Move Out Date from the Moved Out profile, which is the day after the date selected in the Move Out pane.

Move Out Example:

Resident Michael Smith is moving out and is financially responsible for rent until 3/28.

In ALIS, you completed the Move Out pane on his profile and set the Financial Move Out Date to 3/28.

• Without Hotel Rules, Unit Occupancy tables display the date of the room unassignment, which matches the Financial Move Out Date selected when you moved out the resident (unless it is later edited). Michael Smith's move out is represented by "-1" on 3/28 on Unit Occupancy.
• With Hotel Rules enabled, the Financial Move Out Date is automatically switched to the date after the date you selected in the Move Out pane.  Michael Smith's move out is represented by "-1" on 3/29 on Unit Occupancy.
