Amenities or facilities offered by suppliers can be set up and attached at both supplier level and/or product level.
This caters for the situation where a supplier e.g. a hotel may have amenities that are availble for all room types (at a supplier level) e.g., 24 Hr. Reception, Heated Pool, Baby Sitting Available etc., and product amenities would be attached to specific room types - e.g. Cooking Facilities or a Spa Bath.
Attaching Amenities
- If the supplier to which amenities are to be added does not exist, create the supplier first (see Create a Supplier)
-
If the supplier does exist, search for the supplier from Product Setup, select menu

User Defined Amenity
There is an entry at the very top of the Insert Amenities list named User Defined Amenity. This procedure can be used to add a one off amenity. It can be added as an extra amenity for this one supplier only, without having to add the amenity to Code Setup.
