Defining Property Day Parts


After the property record is defined, an administrator sets up the property's day parts, segmenting the operational day into periods of time.

This task is a step in Process of Setting Up Properties.

To set up day parts

  1. Navigate to the Property Administration screen > Properties list view.
  2. In the Properties list, query for and select the required property.
  3. Click the link in the Property Name field, and then click the Day Parts view tab.
  4. In the Day Parts list, create new records, complete the fields for each record, and save the records.

    The following table describes some of the fields.

    Field
    Comments

    Day Part Name

    The name of the day part. For example, Morning.

    Start Time

    The start time of the day part. For example, 6 A.M.

    End Time

    The time that the day part ends. For example, 12 P.M.

    Include in Full Day Threshold

    This check box is used for Full Day discounts. Select it if the day part is to be a part of the Full Day Threshold.

    • If this check box is selected, then any functions may not qualify for a full day discount unless the function touches this day part.
    • If this check box is not selected, then functions may qualify for a full day discount without touching this day part.

    Comments

    Add any relevant comments about the day part.

    NOTE:  Day parts can span over two different days. For example, a day part might run from 10 P.M. until 3 A.M. However, day parts must only span one 24-hour time period.

To validate day parts

  1. Navigate to the Property Administration screen > Properties list view.
  2. In the properties list, select the required property, and click the link in the Property Name field.
  3. Click the Day Parts view tab.
  4. Select the first day part in the list, and click Validate.
    • If there are any gaps or overlaps between the day parts, a dialog box appears prompting you to recheck the day-part definitions.
    • If the day parts are validated, then the last day part in the list is selected after the validation.
