The Core Hotel Reports
Every hotel runs on a handful of standard reports - knowing what each is for, and what to hunt inside it, is reporting literacy.
menu_bookThe Standard Set
Six documents form the standard set. The daily revenue report shows yesterday's actuals versus forecast and budget. The pickup report tracks new bookings, cancellations and net change by date. The pace report compares on the books against last year for future dates.
Together with the forecast summary, the month-to-date flash and the group bookings report, they describe the health and direction of the house - what happened, what is moving, what is committed and what is expected.
Knowing what each report is for - and what to hunt inside it - is reporting literacy: the difference between someone who forwards numbers and someone who runs a property on them.

The same report can be read or merely scanned - and the difference is not speed but consequence. Scanning is what happens when a report arrives every day and expectation has gone numb: the eyes pass over the totals and nothing is flagged.
Reading is an active check of variance against expectation. The trained reader asks one question of every section - did this number do what we expected? - and hunts the anomaly when the answer is no.

Eyes pass over the totals and nothing is flagged - routine blindness. The report arrives, is glanced at, and changes nothing.

Variance against expectation is checked, anomalies are hunted, and one question is asked of every section - the report informs decisions.
dashboardSix Core Reports in Detail
Each core report earns its place by answering one question well. Learn the question, and the numbers inside each document start to organize themselves:
1. Daily Revenue Report
Actuals, budget and forecast side by side - the morning truth of where the house stands.
2. Pickup Report
Bookings added and lost by date - the pulse of demand momentum.
3. Pace Report
On the books versus last year for future dates - the direction of demand.
4. Forecast Summary
Expected occupancy and rate looking forward - the plan the team steers against.
5. MTD Flash
Month running totals versus budget - the scoreboard of the month so far.
6. Group Report
Definite and tentative blocks - the commitments and the maybes that shape the calendar.
The Two-Minute Rule: a trained revenue manager should extract the three exceptions from any core report in two minutes. If the report's design does not allow that, redesign the report - not the schedule.

Core reports adalah enam dokumen standar yang menjadi tulang punggung reporting hotel: daily revenue report, pickup report, pace report, forecast summary, MTD flash, dan group report. Bersama-sama mereka menggambarkan kesehatan dan arah properti, yaitu apa yang terjadi, apa yang bergerak, apa yang terikat, dan apa yang diharapkan.
- check_circleDaily revenue report: aktual hari sebelumnya berdampingan dengan budget dan forecast.
- check_circlePickup report: booking baru, pembatalan, dan perubahan neto per tanggal, yaitu denyut momentum demand.
- check_circlePace report: on the books dibanding tahun lalu untuk tanggal mendatang, arah demand.
- check_circleForecast summary adalah rencana yang dijadikan acuan tim; MTD flash adalah skor berjalan bulan.
- check_circleMembaca aktif berarti memeriksa variance terhadap harapan dan memburu anomali, bukan sekadar memindai.
- check_circleAturan dua menit: revenue manager terlatih mengekstrak tiga exception dari laporan inti dalam dua menit.
helpPertanyaan Umum (FAQ)
Apa saja core reports di hotel?
Enam laporan inti: daily revenue report (aktual vs forecast dan budget), pickup report (perubahan booking per tanggal), pace report (on the books vs tahun lalu), forecast summary, month-to-date flash, dan group bookings report. Masing-masing menjawab satu pertanyaan: apa yang terjadi, apa yang bergerak, apa yang terikat, dan apa yang diharapkan.
Apa perbedaan pickup report dan pace report?
Pickup report melacak booking yang masuk dan hilang per tanggal sehingga menunjukkan momentum demand saat ini. Pace report membandingkan posisi on the books dengan tahun lalu untuk tanggal mendatang sehingga menunjukkan arah demand ke depan.
Apa aturan dua menit dalam membaca laporan hotel?
Revenue manager terlatih harus mampu mengekstrak tiga exception terpenting dari laporan inti mana pun dalam dua menit. Jika desain laporan tidak memungkinkan hal itu, yang didesain ulang adalah laporannya, bukan jadwalnya.
Apa perbedaan membaca dan memindai laporan?
Memindai membuat mata melewati total tanpa menandai apa pun karena kejenuhan harian. Membaca adalah pemeriksaan aktif variance terhadap harapan: setiap bagian ditanya apakah angkanya sesuai ekspektasi, lalu anomali diburu.
