How to setup package
Package setup involves defining package elements, or codes, and collecting these elements into groups, or packages. A package element is defined as an additional product or service that is sold as part of the rate or in addition to the rate. A package group is a collection of package elements. Package groups allow commonly associated elements to be defined as a single unit that can be attached to a rate code or to a reservation. An example might be a Bed and Breakfast package which encompasses a room and breakfast service for a set rate. Or, a Romance package might include champagne, chocolates, and roses as its package elements.
Each package code, or element, is set up separately and a package group would then be configured with all of the selected package elements. The package group can then be added to the specific rate code or to reservations, rather than having to select multiple package elements every time. This approach has been designed to provide you with a powerful system which can handle simple or complex package combinations.
