I think the information needed for this already exists in OR

Would be really helpful to have a ribbon like report with color shading to indicate the amount of time ahead of an arrival that a guest booked their stay. Maybe different shades to indicate the stay was booked <7 days, <30 days, <60 days, <90 days, <120days, <150days, etc

Would be great if this were paired with a report that showed the last N rate changes as well, which should allow a percentage discount/increase calculation.

I'd use this in a future year to figure out which weekends/holidays get booked way early and which book last.

I'd say this is a "nice to have" feature, not "essential" because it's hard to know whether having all that data will be paralyzing. But since July when I set my rates I keep getting bookings for next winter ski season and every time I wonder whether I set my rates too low... So next season I'll want to look carefully at the first dates to book and make sure I'm not underpricing. And same thing with late to book dates, maybe I priced too high.

I think there is a report for that?
