Room Type Overbooking
Functionality to allow Room Type Overbooking while maintaining total capacity of the hotel.
When noticing high volumes of demand for standard rooms and upgrades won't sell, you can allocate an amount of rooms you want to overbook on the standard room while still maintaining the total capacity of the hotel.

Hi, I am a mews hotel user. What you ask is possible, but manual.
Go to Availability & Occupancy report, choose Old Occupany Report because it is easier to see, choose availability mode, click on the room category you want to augment and insert the "additional rooms" you want to sell in the field "Count"; then if needed go to the room category you need less rooms and insert a negative number in the field "Count". I use this feature during low season to "sell" extra single or standard rooms, while spending willingness to higher priced rooms is low.
Watch out !! this is all manual !! you have to check when situation changes.
