Formula

How this calculator works

This formula converts source operating values into pickup for quick review.

Pickup = Rooms On Books Today − Rooms On Books on Prior Snapshot
Context

Why this metric matters

Track as room-nights, revenue, or ADR. Net pickup includes cancels and modifications; gross pickup counts only new adds.

Hotel insight

Industry context

  • Track as room-nights, revenue, or ADR. Net pickup includes cancels and modifications; gross pickup counts only new adds.
  • Small changes in denominator rules can move the result, so keep the same reporting basis when comparing periods.
Operational notes

Before you act on the number

  • 850 OTB today − 790 OTB 7 days ago = +60 room-nights
  • Confirm whether internal-use, complimentary, adjustment, or excluded activity should be included before comparing periods.
  • Use this result as an operating guide and review it with the supporting business context.
