Heat Map
Use the Heat Map tab to set up customized occupancy ranges and colors, if the default settings don't reflect your typical occupancy levels. The settings apply to all G3 RMS heat maps, for example, in the At a Glance Dashboard. If needed, you can also set seasonal exceptions.
For example, some properties achieve occupancies above 80% for most of the year. They might want to set the occupancy ranges above 80 percent in increments of 5 instead of the default 10 and set larger increments for the lowest occupancy ranges. That makes it easier to see the most frequently viewed occupancy levels.
Note: The Business Analysis dashboard displays the heat map only after you enable it in the filter .

Best Practices
Consider Setup Guidelines for Multi-Property Use
If you manage multiple properties, note that this setup is property specific. If each property decides on its own colors and ranges, it might be confusing for multi-property users. Consider guidelines or standardization before rolling out to your team.
