How to create and modify add-ons?

Click on the ‘New Add-On’ button to open a Add-On Item Details popup window, where you can set and edit the details of the add-on items.

Add-on details

The following settings can be configured in the details window:

  • Item Name: Add-on item name that will show up in the web search result.
  • Category: Currently, we have 3 categories: Normal (default), Early Check-in, and Late Check-out. Early Check-in and Late Check-out are two special categories only available for hotels that want to charge additional fee for early check-in and late check-out.
    For normal operations, leave the selection blank (default).
  • Manual Only: Manual only add-on items are not accessible (visible) from guests booking from the hotel’s website. They are only available for the hotel to sell from the OnRes backend system.
  • Rate Type: Set how you want to charge the add-on item. Options are:
    Fixed oneoff charge – the rate is charged once per reservation
    Based on adults – the rate is charged on per adult basis (cost x # of adults)
    Based on children – the rate is charged on per child basis (cost x # of children)
    Based on length of stay – the rate is charged on per night basis (cost x # of nights stayed)
    Adults per night – the rate is charged on per adult per night basis (cost x # of nights stayed x # of children)
    Children per night – the rate is charged on per child per night basis (cost x # of nights stayed x # of children)
  • Number of Units: Set maximum number of units that the guest can choose when they book an add-on item during the booking process.
  • Rate & Taxes: Sets the amount and taxes for the item. Taxes are optional.
  • Description: Description of the add-on items that are visible on the add-on booking page during the booking process.
  • Images: Allows you to set the images of the add-on items that are visible on the add-on booking page during the booking process..
  • Seasonal Settings: Sets the start and end dates to restrict the availability of the add-on item to be sold online (optional)
  • Associated Products: Allows you to restrict the add-on availability to specific room types. Set to ALL if it’s available for all room types. If none is set, it’s not available online.

After the add-on item is created, you can view your item list in the Add-on List as shown below:

Copy an add-on item: You can create an add-on item more quickly by clicking on the “Copy” action link to create a duplicate add-on item, with a new name “Original_AddOn_Name_copy”. The newly created item will have the same settings as the original one.
