Generate Rooms Forecast

The Generate Room Forecast task lets you generate a forecast for Transient rooms. When you perform this task, LMS analyzes the configuration of relevant KBIs, calculates the total number of rooms available, subtracts rooms forecasted for the group and contract market segments, then uses historical data (actuals) and environments to project future occupancy.
