Custom Add-Ons
You can create custom add-ons by selecting a POST TYPE of Nightly and then selecting/deselecting which days of the week the add-on can post on. To do so, the Add-Ons Custom Posting toggle must be enabled from Stayntouch Admin. When this toggle is turned ON, the PMS will allow advance add-on setup; however, if turned OFF, only the standard add-on setup will be available.
If you then navigate to Settings > Rates > Add-Ons > + ADD NEW, and select a POST TYPE of Nightly, you will see the days of the week for which this add-on is applicable. By default, all of the days of the week will be selected (meaning each selected day will be posted). Only the selected days of the week will be customizable from the reservations custom add-ons screen. See the example below.
As part of the custom posting schedule for advanced add-ons, you can configure a Last Night post type for add-ons. The Last Night post type will be posted the day before the departure date for add-ons, and will be posted on the departure date for allowances.

- When creating a reservation, the PMS will only display available add-ons based on the post type and occupancy type and active dates.
