Frontdesk Anywhere allows you to take some rooms off all channels or to increase the availability value. You will have both the ability to select how many rooms you wish to protect and decide by how many reservations you wish to overbook.
In the Admin Settings, click on the blue link Published Rooms under section Rooms:
You will see a list of all your room types, and four columns: the Real column shows the real availability for each type, meaning the number of rooms actually created and listed under a type; it is un-editable. The OBA column stands for Overbooking Allowance: you can edit this field and add the number of reservations by which you want to overbook. In the Protect column you will need to place the number of rooms you want to hide or protect from all channels.
