Defining Full Day Discounts


The following procedure details how to define full day discounts for function spaces after the property day parts have been set up.

To define full day discounts

  1. Navigate to the Property Pricing Admin screen > Properties list.
  2. In the Properties list, select the required property and click the link in the Property Name field.
  3. Click the FS Full Day Discount view tab.
  4. In the FS Full Day Discount list, create a new record, complete the fields and save the record.

    The following table describes some of the fields.

    Field
    Comments

    Function Space

    The function space to which the full day discount will apply.

    Start Date

    The date from which the full day discount will become effective.

    Start Day

    This field is automatically populated after the Start Date field is completed.

    End Date

    The date after which the full day discount is no longer effective.

    End Day

    This field is automatically populated after the End Date field is completed.

    Rule Type

    Select Full Day Discount.

    Cascade

    Click this check box if you want this discount to be applied to all components (or specific spaces) of category or suite functions spaces. Clicking this check box means that you will not need to create a separate discount for each specific space associated with the category or suite.

    Monday - Sunday

    These fields represent the percentage discount on each day of the week. Enter the appropriate percentage discount for each field.

    Comments

    Enter relevant comments on the discount.

Example of How Full Day Discount Works

The day has been broken up into five different day parts as follows, with the day parts for full day threshold flagged:

  • Morning. 7 A.M. until 12 P.M.
  • Afternoon. 12 P.M. until 5 P.M. Include in Full Day Threshold flag.
  • Evening. 5 P.M. until 10 P.M. Include in Full Day Threshold flag.
  • Midnight. 10 P.M. until 3 A.M. Include in Full Day Threshold flag.
  • Night. 3 A.M. until 7 A.M.

Case 1. A wedding party decides to hold an event between the hours of 12 P.M. and 12 A.M. In this case, the event touches three day parts—Afternoon, Evening, and Midnight. As the data above shows, these three day parts are the only day parts with the Include in Full Day Threshold flag selected. Therefore, the event touches all the day parts required for it to qualify for a full day discount.

Case 2. A company decides to hold a conference between the hours of 9 A.M. until 8 P.M. In this case, the event also touches three day parts—Morning, Afternoon, and Evening. However, as the data above shows, the event does not touch the Midnight day part, which has the Include in Full Day Threshold flag selected. Therefore, the event will not qualify for the full day discount as it does not touch all the required day parts.
