Cloning a User
Posted: Tue Apr 01, 2014 3:56 pm
One thing that would be very useful for us would be:
(1) Cloning a user -- all settings kept, including word replacements, language, money(Dollar), money (00,000.00), , nations, states, which documents displayed, ... basically everything. Then we could just go in and change the userid/pswd, and initials inserted after name to show who created reservation/user.
--- meanwhile, it is on my "to-do list" for next week: to create 4-5 new users (newuser1, ... newuser5), so that the owner can quickly add another user when he hires someone new -- or when .
The property owner loves that he can tell who entered a particular reservation. Re-using users (changing name), leaves the impression that the newuser made changes to items prior to them ever being hired.
This has been useful in determining which of 2 front-desk staff was really messing up entries. Especially easier to determine this, as this time of year there is only one(1) person at the desk at a time.
Thank goodness the dumb-dumb is now gone, as the computer was not the only problem for this particular person
Even though it is much more work for me, training a new person is possible ... However, "You can't train stupid." comes to mind
