Dwellings are portable habitats including caravans, campervans, motorhomes, RVs and tents. Dwelling Type is a Lookup Table that can be used to determine compatible Areas for a type of dwelling. Areas in a Category with the Classification of 'Site' can have Dwelling Type assigned to simplify Area Allocation when creating a reservation with a particular dwelling.

Please Note! RMS is highly configurable. Some Terminology, User Access & Permissions, Images, Labels, and Functions used in these articles may differ from your setup. CLICK HERE to find out more.

Import Information

• Areas must exist in RMS before attempting this import.
• The file must be imported in a comma delimited .csv format.
• Microsoft Excel can save using a .csv format that should match these requirements.
• The fields within this file must not contain commas.
• RMS can determine whether the first record is a header record.

Important! A new row must be created for each additional RV Type per Area. 
Example:
Area 215 can accommodate a Class A Motorhome, Pop-Up, Toy Hauler, and Travel Trailer. In this case, there will be four separate line items for Area 215, each representing one of the allowed RV types.
