Membership Information

The Member Information screen is a read-only screen that contains information related to the highlighted guest's (from the Profile Screen) membership and transactions. Access this screen from the Membership Transaction screen (Profile Screen>Member indicator lamp>Points>Member Info.).

Note: Through a web service, member stay information is automatically refreshed each time the Member Information screen is accessed. The web service also enables member stay data to be transferred from the central reservation system to the property. To configure the web service for member stay information, see the "Web Service Setup and Configuration" procedure below.

Note: A property can define the number of years that membership stay data is summarized within the property through the Membership>Settings>Member Info Download Range (Years) application setting.
