Once again a lot learnt about syntax and Variables (Remembering tomorrow the hard part). Finally went the route of setting a different variable for each Custom Data Field then copying that to the new room selected, Update the Room field in the booking Entity, Clear all the Old Room Field and finally Null set all the Variables ready for the next Transfer. Now need to tidy up the numerous unused Rules I have written and discarded and all the test messages.
And it works!
Finally think I am in a position to implement the POS as it now fits the business model.
Just set up the Printers, terminals, inventory etc etc. Spent far too long on the Hotel side but will be worth it.
Many thanks (probably not for the last time) @JTRTech.
HI sir i am glad for you kind contribution in sambapos. For sometime now i have tried to implement a booking system with samba just as you have done but i have terribly failed. I know you have a lot of experience in that regards.Kindly share how you managed yo achieve this especially on adding the "GENERIC Questions
kindly let me if this is the right procedure.
I have gone to the Actions and added the same action several times and also added the same action type several times .so i now have 1 action replicated severally on the same rule ,is it the right procedure though
Because you should not make an action with a [:carried field] of a parameter/rule value, like the message says, just read it.
You have a field in your action which is the same as automation command name value for ACE rule.
Simple solution, make sure your [:xxxxx] carried field labels all have spaces rather than space less, look at you automation command action⊠Add spaces between each word and youâll be golden.
please excuse my naivety, JTR .I am trying to understand the whole set up slowly. I hope i will catch up with you guys,its my sincere wish.i will keep you posted with my progress and i am really grateful of your immense support
Hi JTRTech sorry for reviving an year old topic,but i really want to set up Room entity grid like you have illustrated in this tutorial. I am having issues with getting past the Ask question Action.
My ask question action is not passing the constraints to the rule.
Kindly see what am achieving hereby attached and let me know where my problem is?
In your âGeneric Ask Questionâ action.
In order to type a value inside the Rule you have to first parameterize it.
For example.
In Question box type [:TheQuestion]
In Buttons box type [:Button]
Do this for all the boxes you want to pass into the rule so you can type its value there.
Then in your Rule
Click Select Action and on the right hand side highlight Generic Ask Question and press â<ââ to remove it.
Save it
Press Select Actions again and Select Generic Ask Question again and save it. You should now see the value boxes on the screen to use.
