There are a few options available regarding Apex packages or inclusive amounts and how to create these so that it may be handled correctly between the two systems.

Please see the options below:

Apex Inclusive Amounts
  1. The first option is not to charge any meals or drinks that are already included in the Apex Rates.
  1. Another option is to charge the inclusive food or beverage items on the Point of Sale and room charge the invoice to a House Account on Apex. This will duplicate the revenue between the two systems, so you will need to adjust the duplicate revenue on Apex either on a daily, weekly or a monthly basis.
  1. The next option is to charge the inclusive food or beverage items and then load a 100% discount on the Point of Sale. Items will be reduced from PlusCentral stock but the revenue will not be duplicated.
  1. Lastly you can create Standard Remarks on PlusCentral, this adds the 'Inclusive items' to the guests invoice without any revenue. Please note in order for the Standard remarks to display on the guests invoice the 'Print Remarks' feature needs to be activated on the print options.
