E-Certificate Generation Rules
To open the E-Certificate Generation Rule screen, select the Rules button from the E-Certificate Type -New or Edit screen. Use the E-Certificate Generation Rule screen to configure generation rules for an e-certificate. These generation rules can be based on either a membership upgrade or a first stay for the guest membership.
The guest's current membership level will be considered to determine if the generation rule needs to be applied. For example, if a member is upgraded to a RED level and the generation rule does not include a RED membership level, the e-certificate will not be generated for the guest. In the event of a membership level upgrade, the level upgraded to must match the rule's current membership level at the time of evaluation.
Note: Through the Opera Scheduler utility, a scheduled Opera job (Generate E-certificates procedure) will run in the background and check at regular intervals for profiles that meet the generation rule's requirements.
