Orphan Date Dynamic Restrictions
Add the ability to set an MLOS rule that will reduce the MLOS applied where a short gap between two bookings is not long enough to satisfy the restriction applied to that respective Space Category. This is particularly needed for Short Term Rental operators where a Space Category has an inventory of 1. This functionality offered by Pricelabs.

After implementing this entire system on our property, I am surprised by the amount of work involved in what used to be a straightforward, simple adjustment in the software. I am shocked that this has not become more of an issue with other resorts. Please take action on this matter, as it is integral to how we structure our prices and availability. Thank you.

Agreed. There should be a simple override for minimum-night booking restrictions, not only for one-night gaps as OP mentions, but across the board.
To get around this, you have to do the following:
1. Go to the Main Menu > Settings > Services
2. Click on Restriction
3. Click on the icon on the top right corner
4. Select the interval that you want to remove the restrictions for
5. Select the Rate group
6. Select All Spaces
7. Under Exceptions, select "Only restrictions with exceptions"
8. Click on Continue and delete the restriction
9. The system will then re-create the restriction, removing the interval of the weekend you want the offer the one night for.My FOH team does not have the bandwidth to go through the rigamarole every time we need to book a one-nighter on nights with a MLOS restriction. Our previous PMS, ThinkReservations, allows users to do this with a simple override.
Please take action on this.
Thank you!
