LRV ensures that you accept only the most valuable demand. For example, an LRV of $150 means that guests can book a Flexible Rate product at $160, but not a discounted PrePay&Save product at $140.

Because G3 RMS optimizes all decisions together, this report can be a useful first look at why decisions changed, before a more detailed analysis in the Investigator. For example, you might notice a pricing and LRV change since your last review and want to know when G3 RMS changed the decisions. In the report, look for forecast and competitor pricing changes that might have caused the change in decisions.
