Campland - Preferences Feature


Overview

This feature is specifically designed for Campland on the Bay, serial #2299. For information, please contact RDP Sales.

The IRM.Net supports new operators in the Condition drop down for the Guest Request Fields. These conditions help narrow down the room selection on the IRM.Net once a guest selects a preference value. Rooms are assigned a value for each defined preference. The operators are:

  • > (greater than)
  • >= (greater than or equal to)
  • < (less than)
  • <= (less than or equal to)
  • in (the selected value is anywhere in the preference)

With the "in" operator, the guest can enter a value such as '3' and all units with a '3' like '235,' '23,' or '35' in that preference field will display. A new checkbox has been added to each preference that can require a preference value be selected before continuing with the reservation. It is recommended that the IRM.Net be configured so rooms do not display immediately, in order for the IRM.Net to retrieve the appropriate rooms based on the preference values selected. This switch is accessed on the Reservations Tab in the IRM.Net Configuration.
