Distinguishing guests created in RTP|One through guest checkout rather than through traditional authentication can be useful for operation and fulfillment staff and for reporting. If knowing whether a guest created in RTP|One was created from a guest checkout flow is desired, the resort RTP admin needs to configure a new IPTypeCode for Guest Checkout, or use an existing “guest” IPTypeCode. When the new IPTypeCode is defined in RTP|One, send this code to your Aspenware representative so they can enter it in the config file for the Unity instance used by the store(s).
