in the status bar. The layout User specific configuration handles a number of settings, mainly to be used at the Front Desk. These settings will apply only to the current user and during the current SIHOT-session.
The layout is called up by clicking Configuration
in the status bar.
If registry key [902450] is enabled, the configuration will pop-up every time a user starts SIHOT.
The layout contains the following settings:
•Online credit card terminal:
Depending on the interface, the user can select the process and/or card terminal that is to be used during this session. The EMV-terminal ID is shown only if EMV-terminals are defined under registry key [701219].
•Key card system:
Depending on the hotel’s key card system, the user can select an encoder to be used during this session.
•Duplicate screen:
In order to project a SIHOT layout to another device such as a tablet for a guest to see, a login is required on this device. Select a user that has been assigned an inventory for exactly this purpose. For further information on this function, see Front Office – Check-In.
•Document reader
In hotels using different document scanners, the user can select the device used at his/her work station.
