The usage of packages is optional but often very convenient. A package consists of a description, the ability to adjust the rental rate by a percentage, up to five amenities and up to five equipment items. Packages are booked when a reservation is made. There are many things a package can be used for, for example a cleaning charge can be set up as an amenity and assigned to a package. When booking the reservation use the cleaning package and the reservation will automatically be charged the fee set up in the cleaning amenity.
For example, you could set up a 4 nights for the price of 3 package. To do this, set up the package with the rental rate set to .75 and book a 4 night reservation. The gross rental rate will be multiplied by the .75 effectively giving one night free. You could also have included several amenities and/or equipment, such as a cleaning charge or a bicycle, that could potentially add to the reservation balance due. See Also Package File Menu
