The system supports some extra features which are not enabled in the FrontDesk unless you activate them. You need to select the ones which are needed by you. This can even be done from the Feature Settings.
You can add up the rooms from the ASI FrontDesk Configuration. The Add Room form looks like the one shown above. The 'Short Name' is a compulsory parameter for adding up a room. While the 'Name' & 'Description' are the optional parameters.
You can even change the default captions associated with each country . For example, unlike in United States the State is represented as Province in Canada, the Zip Code is represented as per Code in Canada. By default you have United States as localization option.
Room Status color are used to distinguish the status of each room in the FrontDesk from the Main Screen itself. Even though the status colors are reflected only in the FrontDesk instead of Configuration, you have to change the status color in the Configuration only.
You can change the folio notice at any time. Therefore make sure of the statements before changing the folio notice.
