Process of Managing Meeting Packages in a Quote

You can book a meeting package for a specific event by associating it with a quote. Within the context of that quote, you can manage the various components of the meeting package. For more information about meeting packages, see About Meeting Packages.

When a meeting package is booked, components associated with a meeting package administration record are automatically created as associated objects for that booking. These items are known as core components. Items that are not associated with any meeting package administration record are known as noncore components. A noncore item can be manually associated with a meeting package within the quote.

Many of the same fields in core items and noncore items have different default values, editing characteristics, and interactions with other fields. Some of these differences are described in About Core and Noncore Field Behaviors in Quotes.

Siebel Hospitality calculates pricing details in special ways for quotes that include meeting packages. Examples and formulas for these calculations are shown in About Quote Pricing for Meeting Packages.
