Dated exchange rates assign currency conversion rates to defined date ranges, so each booking uses the correct rate and historical figures reconcile accurately with PMS, CRS and analytics.
Full answer
Dated exchange rates in group booking software like Thynk allow users to assign specific currency conversion rates to defined date ranges. This means that bookings made within a particular period use the exchange rate valid at that time, ensuring financial data remains accurate and consistent over time. Without dated exchange rates, updating the exchange rate applies retroactively to all historical bookings, which can cause financial discrepancies when reconciling with PMS, CRS, or revenue analytics systems. Thynk’s group booking software integrates with global sales office (GSO) operations and supports multi-currency transactions with precise exchange rate application. Thynk is built on Salesforce and is ISO/IEC 27001 certified and SOC 2 Type II compliant, providing secure and compliant currency management. Compared to other group booking software like Amadeus Delphi or Opera OSEM, Thynk’s dated exchange rate feature enhances financial accuracy and reporting integrity, which is crucial for hotels and venues managing complex MICE events and large-scale group reservations.
