IDPMS has the capability of creating confirmation letters using the
IDPMS internal 'Editor' program. See Editor.
In order to be able to select a letter from the print menu in the
reservation or group reservation window, the letters need to be configured
under confirmation. Letters will pull address and contact information
from a relation profile (guest, company or agent). This section explains
the configuration for adding letters to the confirmation picklist. The
letters first have to be compiled and created in Editor.
To access Confirmations, go to Settings > Advanced > Confirmation. For example:
To add a new Confirmation, select add/new
All fields in blue are mandatory.

Confirmation - Enter the name of the letter as you want it to appear in the confirmation pick list.
English - Enter the exact name of the text file (letter) as it is saved in Editor. Letters are saved with an rtf extension. So if the letter is called guest_confirmation.rtf, enter Guest_Confirmation.

Language Source- Select the language source where address details will be pulled from. (Guest, Company or Agent)
Fax Source- Select the fax source where the fax number will be pulled from. (Guest, Company or Agent)
email Subject- Enter the email subject test for the letter. This will appear as the text in the subject line of the Email sent from IDPMS.
Registration Card - Check here if the letter/document is a registration card.
Tab Number - Tab number relates to the relation tab on the reservation screen. For example, if the language source is Guest and Tab 2 is entered, it will pull the address information from the Guest (2) link on the reservation screen.
