New Yearly Comparison Report

April 11, 2012

For users who have been on ReservationKey for several years, there is now a report that makes it easy to compare one year to another.  At the bottom of the reports list, select Booking Date Comparison.  The report shows you how many bookings you have for the future, as of a certain month, based on the date on which the reservation was made.

The report will show you bookings by month for the period of one year, comparing the two years you select. You can find out something like “As of May 2012, I already have 643 room nights booked for February 2013.  As of May 2011, I had only 569 room nights booked for February 2012, so it looks like my sales are running much stronger this year for February 2013 than they were last year.”

If you’ve been using ReservationKey for a while, you now have powerful insights at your fingertips: the ability to compare bookings year over year, fast and easy. Just select “Booking Date Comparison” at the bottom of the Reports list.

How it works:

  • View monthly bookings for two selected years, side‑by‑side.
  • Example: As of May 2022, you may already have 643 room-nights booked for February 2023, compared to only 569 at the same point last year — a sign your sales are trending ahead!

Why it matters:

  • Track booking momentum early in the year.
  • Identify seasonal shifts faster.
  • Make data-driven decisions about promotions and inventory.

For example, you can look up statistics such as “As of April this year, how many reservations do I have coming up, compared to how many I had coming up as of April last year?”  With this you can easily see if how your bookings for this year compare to last year at the same time, for example.  You can also compare years that are both in the past, such as “How many bookings did I have as of January 2011 compared to January 2010?”  

  • Compare any two annual periods—and past years, too.
  • Side-by-side monthly summary makes trends clear.
  • Helps forecast and plan with confidence.
