Adding Packages to a Property

To add package records to a property, follow this procedure.

This task is a step in Process of Creating Property-Specific Packages.

To add a package to a property

1. Navigate to the Property Administration screen, then the Properties view.
2. Identify the property to which to add a package and drill down on the Name field of the property.
3. Click the Packages view tab.
4. In the Packages list, add a new record and complete the necessary fields.

   Some fields are described in the table that follows.

   Field	Comments
   Type	The type of package. The selection determines the pricing method. Selection options are as follows: Package Each. Fixed price for a quantity of 1 of the package, regardless of the number of people. Package Item Price. Variable price for each person where individual item prices are broken out. Package Per Person. Fixed price for each person where individual item prices are not broken out.
   Grouping	Identifies related groups of packages. Allows users to perform searches for packages classified by these related groups. For example, Audio Visual Package might be a grouping, and this can help users to find all the audio-visual packages at a property.
   UoM	The default value changes dynamically according to the selection in the Type field, as follows: Default value is Per Person if Type is equal to Package Per Person. Default value is Each if Type is equal to Package Each. Default value is Each if Type is equal to Package Item Price.
   Fixed	Select to prevent users from adding, deleting, or changing the quantities of package items in the Quote, Order, and Event Check views. Administrators, however, can still add, delete, and change the quantities of package items in the Administration views.
   Start Date	The first day when the package is available. Default value is the current date.
   End Date	The last day when the package is available.
   Use System Allocation	If selected, Siebel Hospitality calculates a per person allocation for the child items of this package, while associating a package into function line items. This field is read-only under the following conditions: The package is, or contains a child package that is, of Type equal to Package Item Price. The package contains a Split Menu.
