Copy transmission rules

If your hotel is part of a MPE, you can now copy transmission rules from one hotel to the other.

To do so, select one or more transmission rules (in order to select more than one transmission rule, keep the CTRL key depressed while clicking).

protel Cloud Center > Messenger > Transmission rules

Then, click on [Copy rules] whereby a new window opens in which you can select to which of your MPE hotels the rule(s) is/are to be copied.

protel Cloud Center > Messenger > Transmission rules

This window will display the number of transmission rules you have selected for the copy procedure. Select the checkbox next to the desired hotels; when finished, click [Save].

This will simplify the setup of protel Messenger for MPE hotels.

New replacement code: Nationality

In the messages which you send to your guests using protel Messenger, you will now also be able to insert the guest’s nationality by means of a replacement code.

protel Cloud Center > Messenger > Messenger > Transmission rules > Add rule > Replacement codes

Do not display title

In order to optimally design protel Voyager, you can hide the title of the individual contents.

protel Cloud Center > Voyager > Content

To do so, simply select the respective checkbox in the “Display settings” area.

This is recommended when you have selected a background image for a tile; especially when it also contains some text. Here is an example:

With title	Without title

In this example the title on the laundry service tile is more disturbing than helpful. For each content, you can individually decide whether or not to hide or show the title.
