Deposits

Administration area / Passive extensions / Deposits

The deposits extension is very similar to down payments but for better management and control, they are separated. This extension can be very useful when your clients book for your products or services because it is like a promise that their intentions are serious. If your clients agree to pay a deposit you have a guarantee they will show up and also pay for the difference.

The software is in BETA and some feature aren't available at the moment or may be subject to change.

Main Settings

Once you have created a deposits extension, you can customize it in the configuration section. Main settings incorporate three tabs: ‘applied to’ that can be used to link the deposit component to one or more calendars, ‘actions’ which can be used to delete or duplicate it and ‘main data’ which contains the following:

1NameEdit this field to change the name of the deposit. Only you can see this name.2LabelEdit this field to create a label for your deposit.

Advance Settings

The component is very straightforward, all you need to do is to create a deposit, set a value and link it to the calendar or the extension where you want it to apply (you may also apply it to products or services). In the advanced settings you can set custom values, availability, schedule and conditions. To learn more about the advanced settings of the plugin, check out the links below.
