Switch 423-01: Go Directly to Room 
Prompt During Check-out

Added 04/15/03 - Article ID#: K000162

When beginning the check-out process by using option 131 at the Front Desk Menu, the default is to bring the user to the "Guest Name/Res. Number" field for data entry, as shown here:

The resort may decide to have the 131 option bring the user directly to the "Room" field in order to save keystrokes each time a room checks out.  This can also be helpful if the user is posting charges where the room number is easier to read than the name or is the only information on the charge slip.

To Enable 

  1. Update to the latest version of RDP.

  2. Go to Menu 98, option 423 and set switch #423-01 to YES. "Go directly to Room Prompt during Checkout = Yes"

To Disable

Changing the switch back to YES will make the first data entry point the "Guest Name/Res. Number" field and the user will need to tab to enter data in to the "Room" field.
