Due to the history tied to guest reservations & reports in the PMS, Client Types cannot be deleted. Client Types can only be made inactive. A Client Type should never be renamed or changed to a different Client Type, as any past reservations that were made using that Client Type will be affected and changed with it.
Deactivating a Client Type
To deactivate a Client Type, proceed to System Configuration > Client Types. Select the desired Client Type from the list (ensure the black arrow is pointing toward the name in the list).
There are two options when deactivating a Client Type:
- Click Modify and remove the check in the box next to Active
OR
- Click the On/Off button on the right
When a Client Type has been deactivated, it is indicated in the Active column.
To switch to a view that only shows active Client Types, check the box next to Active Only.
