In the admin settings, it is possible to create additional fields which must be filled in by the user before confirming a room booking or catering order. The most common additional fields are project number and cost center for invoicing. This additional information is attached to the order and it can also transmitted to external systems via integration. Additional information can also be used to define, for example, an NDA for the visitor management device, which the guest must accept when registering.
In the example below, the additional information to be filled in for a catering order is Cost Center and Project Number. The user must add both details for invoicing before confirming the order.
