Preparing exports before an analytics visit

The fastest discovery visits happen when the property already knows which files tell the truth about rooms, rates, and channels.

Before a BrookHub visit, export three complete months of daily occupancy and revenue by room type. Add a channel summary for the same window and one sample of rate-code definitions. Incomplete weeks create false spikes that waste discovery time.

Name a single owner for channel manager access and a single owner for PMS exports. Split ownership is fine operationally; during discovery, one conversation thread keeps definitions consistent.

If you run multiple properties under one owner, bring a short note on which properties share a rate plan logic. Shared logic lets us sequence commissions without rebuilding the metric dictionary each time.
