Information
Secondary deposit rules can be setup on a Rate Type to apply any time that Rate Type is used.
Second Deposits are an optional additional Deposit rule that can be enabled.
Deposits can be setup on a Rate Type, Derived Rate Type, Rate Type Property Rules, and Rate Tables in addition to the Online Deposit rules used by the RMS Internet Booking Engine.
The Rate Hierachy determines which deposit rules will apply to a Reservation.
Reservations made using the RMS Internet Booking Engine will only use the Rate Type Deposit if the Online Deposit option is set to 'Rate Deposit'.
The Second Deposit Processing utility is available to process bulk payments for a second deposit from multiple reservations using an existing CC Token or Direct Debit information.
Category, Area, Reservation, Guest and Rate are default System Labels that can be customised.
System Administrators will require Security Profile access to setup this feature.
