Expanded Data Processing
Working Practices Ramifications


According to the following example:
To-Do:
  1. New guest arriving at Gatwick airport on DD/MM/YYYY at 10.00am, room to be allocated/booked and the calendar appropriately annotated. Related finances to be recorded
  2. Fresh linen to be delivered to Gatwick airport guest’s booked room on DD/MM/YYYY. Bed to be re-made and room inspected for cleanliness – which may be completed as a matter of routine, but will still need to be checked
  3. Hotel driver(identified by name) to pick-up a new guest arriving at Gatwick airport on DD/MM/YYYY at 10.00am, using one of the hotel’s cars(identified by ID), to arrive at the airport on a specific date/time
The proper completion of this sort of To-Do record requires the pre-existence of specific records appertaining to the:
  • Guest: names and address lines, visa card No, contact details etc, along with a possible list of previous contact events
  • Driver: which incorporates names, address lines, Nat-Ins No, qualifications/dates, Next of Kin, payroll No and a list of significant events relating to this person
  • Hotel Car: ID, service due date, warranty expiry date, MOT due date(over 3 years old), along with a possible list of previous repair events
  • Task: easily created by means of direct typing within a sub-form list. This becomes very important with the completion of subsequent information dissemination processes. Consistent descriptions are easily filtered
 With the completion of the above To-Do event, the driver and the hotel car are specifically allocated, thus reducing the possibility of duplicated involvement, most certainly if the To-Do details are incorporated into employee and vehicle schedules. During busy periods, all works for efficiency and customer satisfaction. With the dual use of INTREPs ‘Prospects-V2-LAN’ and ‘Hotel-FT130’, To-Do events of the type above(and most other situations) are catered for admirably and room scheduling is invoked automatically. With the dual use of ‘Hotel-FT130’ and ‘Remote Booker Out – Hotel’, all accommodation finances – and miscellaneous extras – are recorded in detail – transaction by transaction – the results of which are automatically transmitted(securely) to the group head office for incremental processing and centralised auditing/analysis, cost centre by cost centre within INTREPs ‘Remote Booker – In’. With the origination of data in ‘Prospects-V2-LAN’, automatic data transfer is invoked to ‘Hotel-FT130’, ‘Remote Booker Out – Hotel’ and ‘Remote Booker – In’. There is never any need for the duplication of data origination processes. Additionally, the ‘GET DATA INPUT’ feature within ‘Prospects-V2-LAN’ provides for the origination of multiple records within a single sequence of semi-automatic operations, all of which can be ‘Priority’ flagged, en-masse.
