Order Import Service

A user guide to implement the RTP functionality which allows resorts to upload group sales orders into the system instead of entering them manually.

What It Is

Are you a resort that needs to enter in large group bookings into RTP but find it very time consuming to add in all the details to Customer Manager, create an order, sell the correct product to each person, etc? RTP has a tool to help with this exact scenario that isn't widely known. Called 'Order Import Service', it's a tool that allows users to import an Excel spreadsheet to create an order in RTP.

Steps the tool can do:

  • Create customers - first name, last name, & DOB

  • Create an order

  • Sell products

  • Create/update someone's Rental Profile

Installation

  • Install the RTP One Order Import Service on to the RTP One application server.

  • To do this, either follow RTP documentation or reach out to flaik's Managed Services team.

  • Contact flaik for a copy of the sample template spreadsheet.

Import File

  • Open the sample template spreadsheet.

  • Save the spreadsheet as a copy (eg give it a unique name so as to not overwrite the original template)

  • Update the fields in row 2 with the order details.

  • Update rows 4+ with customer & product details, creating a row per customer.

Required Fields

Although the grids above indicates some fields as being not required, that can change depending on what has been entered in other fields. Examples:

  • The Customer IP and Reseller IP are both listed an not required, but one field must be included.

    • If the Order Type is 2-4 (Reseller orders), then the reseller's IP must be included. The Customer IP can be left blank though, and the customers will be created in rows 4+.

    • If the Order Type is 1 (Consumer Order), then the customer attached to the order must be included.

      • eg - creating an order for a group such as a school. Create the School as a customer (if needed) and then enter in their IP# into the Customer field. Create the customers in rows 4+.

  • In the Customer Details section, either the IP or the First Name/Last Name/DOB must be filled in.

  • Rental DIN details - not required for non-rental items, but required if Rental Tools will be utilized to calculate DIN.

Rental Details

For the Rental fields, the following system defaults must be used. Customer weights or heights will need to be converted accordingly.
