Revenue Forecast Report

The revenue forecast report now shows historic figures as well if the date range that is set includes past dates. Forecast revenue is shown under Guaranteed or Non-guaranteed.
Please note that reservations staying for more than one night will show actual revenue even for nights that have not been charged yet so actual revenue on future dates on this report 
relate to in-house bookings and nights that are still due to be posted on them.
