🔐 User Type & Roles

To perform this action in ALICE, the user must have at least Hotel Admin User Type access.

(lightbulb) Things to Consider

  • Locations should be added during the account launch. When adding new Virtual Suite Locations, ensure that the name matches exactly to the Virtual Suite names in the PMS. If the names are not an exact match, the integration can produce errors. 

  • The Connecting Rooms/Virtual Suite Locations must be a guest room (Guest Room checkbox must be enabled).

  • Each of the individual component rooms will display connecting room information in the Connecting Rooms field within Location details.

  • Once a set of rooms have been created as a Virtual Suite (the Virtual Suite checkbox is enabled), the connecting rooms can only be edited within the Virtual Suite Location. Connecting Rooms cannot be edited within the individual component room locations when the Virtual Suite Checkbox is enabled. 

  • Virtual suites, once configured, will be automatically connected based on the information provided by the PMS Integration. Connecting Rooms must be manually connected/disconnected.

  • An Interlocking Rings icon will signify Connecting Rooms/Virtual Suites. When grey, rooms are not connected and are unoccupied. When black/bold, the rooms are connected.
    View the Iconography section of Rooms Tab - Web or Rooms Tab - Mobile to learn more.

  • Virtual Suites will be organized into a sub-section of the appropriate floor in the unassigned rooms list.
