...

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).  

...

Info

NoteNOTE: If IPTypeCode is not displayed in standard RTP|One administration, it’s likely not being accessed from a poweradmin account.  If IPTypeCode cannot be viewed in RTP|One admin, work with your Aspenware representative to configure this.

Setting

Value

Store

ordersettings.anonymouscheckoutallowed

True - Enables guest checkout

False - Disables guest checkout

This can be configured at the store level.  If you have multiple stores, input the store this applies to.  Otherwise, leave blank.

...

  • It’s also possible to configure whether the guest checkout register form shows first, or the traditional login form is shown first when guest checkout is enabled for a store, using a setting.  Administrators can choose to either show the guest checkout form first, or the traditional login first.   This allows the admin to emphasize guest checkout over traditional login (if set to true), or to show traditional login first (if set to false).  Configuration > Settings, search for the following setting: checkout.guestcheckout.preferguest

...

  • To update language strings on the Guest Checkout page, configure the following language strings from  Configuration > Languages > English > String Resources , search for the following strings and add them if they don’t exist. See full list of language strings for guest checkout in the Language Strings Library

  • Click Save.
