Time Shifting a Quote Meeting Package

You can time-shift an event quote with one or more associated meeting packages.

This topic is a step in Process of Managing Meeting Packages in a Quote.

To time shift a meeting package quote

1. Navigate to the Quotes screen, then the List view.
2. In the Quotes list, query for a quote that has one or more associated meeting packages.
3. Click Time Shift.
4. In the Time Shift Events dialog box, perform one of the following steps:
   • Select the Shift by Day check box, and enter a number of days.

     A negative day value shifts the event back, and a positive day value shifts the event forward.

   • Select the Shift by Date check box, and select a new date.
5. Click Shift Event.

   If Shift by Day is selected, then Siebel Hospitality uses the entered number of days. If Shift by Date is selected, then Siebel Hospitality calculates the number of days between the former Arrival Date and the new Arrival Date. Siebel Hospitality then applies this number to equally shift the start dates of all the following associated items:

   • Meeting packages
   • Functions and function line items
   • Nonfunction line items
   • Room blocks and room block line items

     Siebel Hospitality checks that the new Start Date and End Date fall within the valid effective dates of the meeting package administration record. If the Start Date or the End Date falls outside of the valid date range, Siebel Hospitality does not allow the time shift to occur. If the dates are valid and the event shift is successful, then Siebel Hospitality displays the Time Shift view.

6. In the Time Shift view, click the Menu button near the start of the view and choose one of the following menu options:
   • Choose Accept Shifted to accept the event shift.
   • Choose Reject Shifted to discard the event shift.
