Price Rules 

We have implemented 3 kinds of price rules: Staff Price RulesSpecial Date Price Rules and Reservation Price Rules. These rules will add some versatility to the effort of the better-evaluating price of the reservation. With Staff Price Rules, go to Staff Price Rules tab in Reservation menu. 

 

 

 

Then we have Special Date Rule, which will add or subtract a certain amount of money when a certain date is selected. 

Rule Amount is defined so that if a staff of one type is selected on frontend by the customer, a corresponding amount will be added to the total. 

 

 

 

Another price rules - Reservation Price Rules allows admins to create reservation price rules for Time Activity such as every day, every week, every month, every year.  Admins can view or delete Reservation Price Rules

 

 

Especially, admins can set pre-order for Reservation Price Rule.
