Restrictions

As the name suggests, restrictions limit a bay or course player's options. They can also be configured to apply only during a specific time period, during which the restricted bay will be available.

We have different types of restrictions, and you can find a complete list with explanations further down.

How to Set Up a Restriction

Firstly, you can find the restrictions in Admin Panel > Settings > Restrictions.

There are three steps to setting up a restriction:

1. Create a flag, preferably with a name that reflects the restriction (this can be done directly within the restriction setup).
2. Define the restriction, specifying the desired effect and rules.
3. Apply the restriction to the bay or course you want to limit.

When we create restrictions we will come across a new window

• Name: How you want to refer to your restriction. Make it concise and representative.
• Apply To Staff: Whether you want to restrict staff and customers, or just customers.
• Affected Object: What kind of object will this restriction be targeting? e.g. Bay options, Course option, Product, Player options, Topup or Extra.
• Message: This message will be displayed if the rule is triggered. Only relevant for disable/inform effects. Only appears 
• Effect:  This might be a bit tricky so let's understand the effect
  • exclude: exclude the option and only show when we the set criteria meets
  • disable: disable the option and will show but has a red line across saying Only available "The name of the restriction" and you wont be able to chose it
  • Inform: IT will have a blue little informing line under the option what you setting in the restriction message but the customer still able to book them
• Flags : are the labels that you will use to link Options and Restrictions together
