Status Types

When you select the Status Types option on the main Inventory page, InnDesk will display the current list of room status values in a table on the right side of the page, as shown in the figure below.

This table includes the item's status ID and a description.  The list is sorted by the Status field.

You can search for any item by typing an ID number or partial description in the search box and then clicking the Search button.  InnDesk will display only those items whose ID number or description contains the text you entered in the search box.

Add a Status Type

To add a new status type, click the Add button, located on the right side of the Items table (there are actually two Add buttons, one at the top of the table and one at the bottom; both buttons have the same behavior).  This will display an empty Item Edit form, as shown below.

Enter the data according to the instructions provided on-screen, then select OK or Insert to add the item.

Note: If either the remote server and/or the DV2000/DV4 is integrated with a property management system (PMS), then it is recommended that you configure the room status types in the RSI application to match those expected by the PMS.

The following buttons are provided on the form:

Edit or Delete a Status Type

To edit a status type, click on either its ID number or its description (both are clickable links).  This will open the Item Edit form with the selected item's data already filled in, as shown below.

Once assigned, a status ID cannot be changed; hence, the Status ID field is not editable.  If you need to change the ID of a status type, you must delete the  type and then re-add it with the new ID number.

Change the description as desired, then click OK to save it.

The following buttons are provided on this version of the form:
