How do I create a restriction OR policy where by the MEWS system automatically closes my discounted rates once occupancy reaches a certain threshold. For instance, if I want my winter special rate to be automatically turned off when my occupancy reaches 60%. How do I that? The key is that it has to be automated within MEWS. I don’t want to have to go through the rates and mark them private.

Hey Jigish,
thank you for the post! 🙂
At the moment it is not possible to create a restriction based on occupancy, as the other commentors already mentioned. The parameters you can currently use to create restrictions are:
- Minimum advance: Minimum number of days in advance to make a booking.
- Maximum advance: Maximum number of days in advance to make a booking.
- Minimum length: Minimum number of nights to stay.
- Maximum length: Maximum number of nights to stay.
- Minimum price: Minimum price of the booking.
- Maximum price: Maximum price of the booking.
- Currency: Currency used for all restrictions with minimum or maximum prices set.

if you wnat to close the rate i would rather set an restriction manually than put them into private.
+1The only way to do this is with an external Revenue Management System integration - Mews cannot control rates or restrictions via occupancy at present.
