Interpreting Your Dashboard Metrics

  • Dashboard aggregates reservations based on your individual Advisor ID and no other Advisor
  • Dashboard does not display reservations detail
  • All metrics and Achievements are displayed in USD
  • Dashboard metrics include year-to-date data only
  • Dashboard is refreshed daily with any new or updated reservations data
    - Allow for one to five days following guest check-out date for the reservation production to show on your dashboard
  • Select dashboard metrics display your year-to-date, year-over-year growth. Growth metrics are based on your year-to-date consumed reservations compared to your consumed reservations during the same time period last year.
    - For example, on April 1, 2024, your growth metrics will be based on your consumed reservations from January 1, 2024 to March 31, 2024 compared to your consumed reservations from January 1, 2023 to March 31, 2023

 

Annual Updates

Every February, your dashboard will update to show your year-to-date reservations data for the new year and archive your reservations data for the year prior. Your reservations data for the year prior will show on your dashboard through the end of January, ensuring all your reservations are posted to ILLUME so you can review your full-year results before the annual update.

Data is refreshed daily with any new or updated travelled (paid and stayed) reservations data posting to ILLUME following the guest check-out (allow one to five days). For reservations that check in one year and check out in the following year, each night of the reservation production will be posted to the year in which it occurred.

  • Example: For a four-night guest stay that checks in on December 30 and checks out on January 3, you will see the room revenue from December 30 and 31 in the first year, and the revenue for January 1 and 2 in the subsequent year’s production after the guest checks out and the dashboard is updated to reflect the new year.

During every annual update, select performance metrics and Achievements will be reset, and other metrics and Achievements will be cumulative and reflect your production from January 1, 2023, our first year of ILLUME.

Below is a summary of the changes to your dashboard following the annual update in February:

  • All performance metrics except My Highest Rate, My Highest Room Revenue and Total Achievements reset to reflect your year-to-date reservations from January 1 of the current year.
  • My Highest Rate, My Highest Room Revenue and Total Achievements are cumulative and reflect your reservations data since January 1, 2023.
  • All Performance Achievements, the Properties Discovered Achievement, and the Trailblazer Achievement reset to reflect your year-to-date reservations from January 1 of the current year.
  • All Engagement Achievements, Globetrotter Achievements, Expert Achievements, and Dedicated Property Achievements are cumulative and reflect your reservations data since January 1, 2023. If you have already unlocked one of these Achievements, they continue to show as achieved on your dashboard.
