How to setup Franchise groups in RMS.

Overview

The Franchise feature provides advanced property grouping, management and reporting options for property segmentation within an Enterprise RMS database.

A franchise can be used to manage an Enterprise database where all or some of the properties belong to a Franchise Group.

Franchise Group can be granted access to a Company, Guest or Travel Agent to simplify managing Franchise contracts, memberships or negotiated rates.

Users can be associated with a particular Franchise Group and can only be assigned access to properties within their associated group.

Franchise Groups only have access to the data that relates to their Franchise Group.
