Area Dwelling Options

Dwelling fields are used for managing portable accommodations booked onto areas with the category classification of 'Site' including caravans, campervans, RVs and tents. Area dwelling options determine the dwelling length, dwelling type and dwelling slide that can be accommodated in the rental area. 

When a dwelling length and dwelling type is applied to a guest profile, a warning will display if the rental category selected does not match the allocated dwelling options. Users can be granted access to override the warning in security profiles.

Dwelling length and dwelling type are user defineable lists whilst the dwelling slide options are system generated. The dwelling slide will include the option of 'None' if the field is set as mandatory for the guest details in field maintenance. The dwelling slide can be added as a search option on the RMS Internet Booking Engine (IBE) with the dwelling length and dwelling type displaying automatically if allocated to a category that is available online. The dwelling length and dwelling type can be set as a mandatory search options for the RMS Internet Booking Engine.
