About Core and Noncore Field Behaviors in Quotes


Some fields associated with meeting packages and their components have different characteristics depending on whether they are in core or noncore records. These differences in field behaviors are described in Table 47.

This field is editable and has no default value. If the Package field has a value, then this field is required. If the Package field is null, then this field is not required.

Core

Read only. If this item was added as part of a meeting package associated with the quote (that is, if this is a core item), then this check box is selected.

Date

For items with a Posting Rhythm of Per Stay, then by default, this field displays the Arrival Date of the quote and is editable.

Day #

The value of this field is calculated from the Date field of the item and the Arrival Date field of the quote, and is not editable.

For example, if the Arrival Date is

1/2/2012 will have 2 in the Day # field, and so on.
