· Help: Creating Daily Ticket with Borrow Check Engine or add Borrow Check Engine to existing Ticket (Example) |
Borrow is used to enable functionality of borrowing items such as towels, bathrobes, swimming suites, etc. and charging penalties if these items are not returned.
Tickets with a Borrow Check Engine (borrowed items) are denied exit from the system on access control devices. Several items can be borrowed on the same ticket. Items to be borrowed can be added to any ticket to be automatically sold with the ticket, or they can be borrowed afterwards (when the ticket has already been issued with access control parameters) as an additional purchase.
Exit is
denied to tickets with borrowed items, so a procedure must be performed in the
Metra POS SW that grants exit if items are returned.
If items are lost or the guest does not wish to return them, penalty items are
charged for and again exit is granted. Penalty items such as Lost towel, Lost
bathrobe, etc. are usually more expensive (somewhere in the range of purchase
price of the item) than the original borrow price.
This Example shows how to create standalone towel borrow which can be sold with or added to any ticket and also how to create Daily ticket with Borrow check engine.
