Siebel Hospitality Guide > Managing Hospitality Inventory > Changing Inventory-Critical Reservation Attributes > About Inventory-Critical Fields at the Function LevelModifications to several fields in the function record can affect inventory. If multiple updates are made to a reserved function, Siebel Hospitality alerts the user that additional actions must be performed. Overview of Date and Time Changes for FunctionsWhenever the user changes the values for Start Time, Duration, Date, and Day #, and attempts to save the function record, a message provides a suggested course of action. Users can configure the application to eliminate the reminder dialog box, or they can set up a process that automatically checks availability. See To configure availability status checking for more information. When the user sees the following message, the user can proceed with the reservation by clicking OK. Function parameters have changed. Would you like to check availability with new parameters? Two results are possible after the availability check:
If the user clicks OK, the updated parameter remains, and the Inventory Status becomes Unreserved. If the user selects Cancel, the original parameters are restored and the Inventory Status remains as Reserved. To configure availability status checking
About Combining a Function Space and a Setup StyleThe user can see the setup styles associated with the specific space on a particular property from the Property Administration screen, Specific Space view, which includes a Setup Style list. Setup Styles are created by the administrator during property administration. For more information, see Associating Setup Styles and Packages with Properties. The user can update either the function space or setup style fields using the Quote Function view. When the user updates either of these fields, Siebel Hospitality attempts to validate the Setup Style-Function Space combination. If the combination is invalid, the following message appears: Invalid combination of function space and setup style. If the Setup Style is changed and the Setup Style-Function Space combination is valid, the value selected in the Setup Style field is saved. If the function space is changed for a reserved function and the Setup Style-Function Space combination is valid, the selected values are saved. About Function Status and Released InventoryWhen the user changes the Function Status field value to a value that releases inventory, the Inventory Status field is updated to Unreserved. The function status values that result in released inventory are: NOTE: If the user changes the Function Status value to Lost/Turndown, inventory is released for all function spaces. |
