Early Booking Discount not applied only for the dates selected

[bledi]

Hello!
We are using a lot the option of early booking DISCOUNT, but i noticed that this discount it is not applied only for the dates selected or seasons in the window of the prices.
So lets suppose i have selected 10% discount from 10-15 July on a Room. if the clients chooses in the calendar check in date 11 July and check out date 18 July, then the discount is applied also for the dates of 16, 17, 18 july, which it should not do it.
Also in the contrary if the client choose Check in date before the season with Discount example 7 July and check out date 15 July then in this case the Discount IT IS NOT APPLIED AT ALL.

Please advice if this is my misconfiguration or any BUG of the system.

The important date for early booking discount is the check-in date, check-out date has no affect on it because of the nature of this discount.
So, if check-in is inside a season with early booking enabled the early booking discount will apply for all the dates of the booking (as this discount applies on the reservation in whole, not in particular dates).

I see, but is so difficult to control this tool it in this way because the discounts of hotels nowadays are becoming so Dynamic...Is there any way to adopt this discount for Particular Dates?

It is already for particular dates as the check-in date must be during a season with this discount enabled.
As I said before it is the nature of this discount to be applied based on criteria having to do only with the check-in date and not the check-out date.

What is an "early discount"?
It is a discount to make to the guest if he makes a booking early enough, e.g. 1 month before the check-in date. This discount is used primary to make sure your hotel will be full for the seasons you are interested by providing an economical motive to the guest. The same applies for tickets. If you pay for airplane/ship tickets early enough the companies provide you a discount. When ever you get back from your trip has no affect on this discount.

See the attached image and consider the following scenarios.

1. Check-in before (4) of the month -> no discount applies
2. Check-in from (4) to (10) of the month -> discount applies.
   2a. Check-out: (9) of the month. You say: discount applies, IOSR says: discount applies
   2b. Check-out: (12) of the month. You say: no discount applies, IOSR says: discount applies. Why to "punish" a guest staying longer than the one in case 2a by not applying him the early booking discount he deserves?
3. Check-in after (10) of the month -> no discount applies

OK, now I understand the logic, but to my opinion, in the next version of IOSR you should consider the possibility of a DISCOUNT applied to particular dates only, applied only to these dates.
Thanks for the explanations.
