Overview - Working With Reservations

Top  Previous  Next

 

Keeping track of reservations are naturally the main purpose Campground Master.  Most functions of the program revolve around the various tasks involved in recording reservation information, locating that information when needed, making changes, and keeping historical data for reporting purposes.

 

One important thing to remember that "Reservations" are not the same as "Customers" in Campground Master.  "Reservations" are records that contain the information about a single stay for a particular customer.  Most of the actual customer information is stored separately in a "Customer" record, and the reservation only references that customer by an internal number.  There are many reasons for this, but the main reasons are efficiency and continuity -- the customer information only needs to be stored once, no matter how many reservations that customer makes over time.  Likewise, if you change the customer information, it's automatically changed for all of that customer's reservations.
