Internal Charge Number Setup

1. To enable internal charge numbers in OPERA Controls, from the Administration menu, select Enterprise, and then select OPERA Controls.

2. Select Reservations from the Groups menu.

3. Ensure the Create Internal Charge Number setting is enabled.

4. Modify Charge Number Pattern settings:

   1. Add a Charge Number Pattern Prefix if the internal charge numbers should begin with a specific alpha or numeric code. For example, enter DL in this field if you want all internal charge numbers to begin with the letters DL.

   2. Add a Charge Number Pattern to define the pattern to be used to generate internal charge numbers. For example, press Ctrl and click to select PROPERTY and NAME ID from the multi-selection pane, and then click Save. This defines the number creation pattern to use and the guest’s name ID when creating new internal charge numbers. Leave this field blank to use the Oracle Sequence Number.

   3. Add a Charge Number Pattern Suffix if the internal charge numbers should end with a specific alpha or numeric code. For example, enter ORL in this field if you want all internal charge numbers to end with the letters ORL.

   4. Enter a value in the Charge Number Maximum Size field to specify a maximum number of characters to be used in internal charge numbers. The minimum value is five and maximum is 60 characters.
