Defining Status Color Schemes for the Function Space Diary

You can define Function Space Diary color schemes for function inventory statuses, asset inventory statuses, quote statuses, and function statuses. Each status can be mapped to a different color. When a user selects either the Inventory Status, Quote Status, or Function Status color scheme in the diary, Siebel Hospitality applies the color scheme you entered to control which colors are used to display bookings in the diary.

This task is a step in Defining Function Space and Asset Inventory Status Indicators.

To define status color schemes for the Function Space Diary

1. Navigate to the Function Space Administration screen, then the Function Space Diary Administration view.
2. To define a color scheme for function inventory statuses, perform the following steps.
   1. Scroll down to the Function Color Schema list, and then click New.
   2. In the new record, select an inventory status and assign a color to that status.
   3. Repeat Step a and Step b for each function inventory status that must appear in the diary.

      NOTE:  It is recommended that you not map the Unreserved status to a color, because this can cause the diary to become cluttered.

3. To define a color scheme for quote statuses, perform the following steps.
   1. Scroll across to the Quote Status Color Schema list, and then click New.
   2. In the new record, select a quote status and assign a color to that status.
   3. Repeat Step a and Step b for each quote status that must appear in the diary.
4. To define a color scheme for asset inventory statuses, perform the following steps.
   1. Scroll down to the Inventory Status Color Schema list, and then click New.
   2. In the new record, select an inventory status and assign a color to that status.
   3. Repeat Step a and Step b for each asset inventory status that must appear in the diary.

      NOTE:  It is recommended that you map only the Booked and Double Booked asset inventory statuses, because the other statuses might unnecessarily fill up the asset inventory Scheduler control chart.

5. To define a color scheme for function statuses, perform the following steps.
   1. Scroll across to the Function Status Color Schema list, and then click New.
   2. In the new record, select a function status and assign a color to that status.
   3. Repeat Step a and Step b for each function status that must appear in the diary.
6. In the FSD Administration form, Color Display By field, select the basis for how diary colors are displayed.

   The color scheme options are as follows:

   • Inventory Status. Displays events using the colors for inventory status values as defined in the Inventory Status Color Schema list.
   • Function Status. Displays events using the colors for function status values as defined in the Function Status Color Schema list.
   • Quote Status. Displays events using the colors for quote status values as defined in the Quote Status Color Schema list.
