Getting Started with Siebel eHospitality
To set up Siebel eHospitality, you must perform the following tasks:
- Activate workflow processes
Workflow processes must be activated for invoice creation.
- Set up catalogs
A catalog is a collection of products arranged in a logical hierarchy of categories.
- Create product categories and subcategories
Categories and subcategories allow you to group similar products together and assign them appropriate service charges and taxes.
- Create simple and complex products
Complex products are made up of simple products. For example, a complex product might be an A/V Projector that includes simple products such as an extension cord, a lens cap, and so on.
- Set up properties (locations for events)
Each event can be associated with one property, but multiple rooms, teams, and taxes can be associated with a property.
- Create assets for each product
An asset represents a specific instance of a product. For example, a user can create a product such as a piano. This product can have multiple assets such as a Yamaha piano at one property and a Baldwin piano at another property.
- Create price lists
Each price list can specify more than one kind of pricing, for example, list price, promotional pricing, and so on. Price lists are associated with both the property and specific orders.
- Define and associate charge codes, taxes, and service charges
Charge codes link taxes, properties, and service charges to products.
