# Room Availability Setup

## Configure room availability rules and thresholds to control upgrade offers, prevent overselling and optimize inventory management.

**Setup \> Room Types \> Availability Setup**

 

This feature is only available if your PMS delivers room type availability to our system. 

 

### 1. Room Availability:

You can setup if the system should check for your room type availability and close-out rooms that are not available. 

 

To consider: will you usually reject an offer for a room that is not available, or will you find ways to allocate the guest or wait for possible cancelations? 

 

### 2. Availability Threshold

Enable room availability check for this option to work. 

  By default the threshold is 0, where rooms are closed-out once the availability of 0 is reached.

You can overwrite with a positive number (e.g. close out at an availability of 2) or negative number (e.g. room type can be overbooked up until -2).

**Use cases:**

1\. You just have 2 Suites and want to offer them just if both are available in order to not overbook. In this case you would set a threshold of "1".  

 

2\. You want to overbook your Superior rooms by 5 rooms as these rooms are easy to upsell and you can allocate guests into other categories if need be.  In this case you would set a threshold of "-5".
