How do I set options?

It is possible to offer the customer extra options such as coffee and tea, lunch or use of a laptop. The options can be created per product, and can therefore also differ per product. The option will be visible when the customer is completing the booking dialog, and also when the administrator makes a new booking in the admin panel.

Adding an option

Adding and/or amending an option for a product takes only a few simple steps:

• In the admin panel, go to the configuration of the environment.
• Click in the menu on Objects and then on Manage products.
• Select a product by clicking on the Product ID (number) .
• Click, at the top right of the page, on Views and then on Object - Extra.
• Various blocks will be dusplayed. Go to the 'Option details' block.
• Click in this block on the button to add a new option.
• The options contain multiple buttons to edit the option. There are also buttons available to copy or delete the option.
• If multiple options are offered, the order can be adjusted. Click on an option, hold down the mouse button, and drag it up or down. This will also update the order for the customer within the booking dialogue.

Example

We will add the 'Lunch' option as an example. This takes only a few simple steps:

Click in the option block on the button to add a new option.
There is a choice of three types:

• Type A: 0 of 1 per product (check box) - a field appears in which the customer can tick a box.
• Type B: 0,1 or more per product (text box) - a field appears in which the customer can enter the amount.
• Type C: group of options - when creating multiple options with this type, a dropdown menu will appear, in which the customer can choose from the options.

In this example, we choose Type B. Fill in 'Lunch' for Name and Description.
Using the Next button, it is possible to set up more matters, such as maximum amount, price and whether or not the option is required.

Copying options

When the options for certain products are the same, they can be copied through the Action Block. Click on Copy parts of product. The Copy product screen will open. After Target products, select the products to which the options should be copied and save these. Then, after Copy options, select the way you want to copy the options. You can now copy the options.
