''This page explains how to set up dorms or other shared rooms''
== '''Setup == === Step 1''' - Setup your Rooms ===
Go to '''SETTINGS''' -> '''PROPERTIES''' -> '''ROOMS''' and add a room for each dorm you have.
To set them up go to '''SETTINGS''' -> '''PROPERTIES''' -> '''ROOMS''' -> '''SETUP'''
*set ''Quantity of This Type'' to the number of beds in this dorm. If you do not offer a special children price set ''Maximum Adults'' to "Use Guests" and ''Maximum Children'' to ''Dont Ask''

*Set the "Accommodation Type" = Dorm
=== Step 2- Set your Prices ===
'''Using Daily Prices:'''
Go to SETTINGS-> PROPERTIES-> ROOMS> DAILY PRICES enter a price for each number of guest which can book.
Example:
If a dorm can accommodate three guests you will need three daily prices:
*Daily price 1: "Maximum Guests" = 1.
*Daily price 2: "Maximum Guests" = 2.
*Daily price 3: "Maximum Guests" = 3.
Then go to the CALENDAR and enter your price.
'''Using Rates:'''
Go to '''RATES''' click on ADD RATE to open the rate popup.
*Offer the whole dorm at a discounted price. Enter the price for the whole dorm in ''Room Price'' and set ''Room Price For'' to ''Max Room Capacity'' or the minimum number of people this rate applies to.

*if you offer a discounted price for children enter this into ''Extra Child''. If you use this go go '''SETTINGS''' -> '''PROPERTIES''' -> '''ROOMS''' and set ''Maximum Adults'' and ''Maximum Children'' to the max number you allow in this dorm.
== '''Step 3''' - Adjust your Booking PageManage bookings ==Go to '''SETTINGS''' -> '''BOOKING PAGE''' -> '''ROOMS''' "Descriptions" For online bookings containing multiple beds the system will create a group booking with one master booking showing the invoice for all beds and and change ''Unit Type'' individual linked bookings for each bed.
