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).  

...

If guests should not be distinguished from standard authentication guests, your Aspenware representative will need to define 1000 (which is the default Person IPTypeCode in RTP|One) in the config file for guest checkout.

2. (Optional) Configure Selective Guest Checkout

Guest checkout may be enabled either globally within the store or by individual products. The following steps need to be completed IN ADDITION to the steps above to enable Selective Guest Checkout. This will limit guest checkout to carts that contain only products that are guest checkout eligible.

• Go to Configuration > Settings > Order Settings

• Scroll down to the Additional Order Settings section

• Check “Selective Guest Checkout”

  

• Scroll to the top of the Order Settings page and click Save (This will enable selective guest checkout which makes guest checkout only available for carts that contain selective guest checkout-eligible products.)

• Then, go to Catalog > Products and click Edit on the desired product.

• Scroll to and expand the Additional Product Settings drop-down. Check “Selective Guest Checkout”

• Scroll to the top of the page and click Save
