Prerequisite Tasks

POS Tasks

1. Deploy stored procedure with specific validation rules to POS

...

Fast Flow uses a stored procedure in the POS to validate if the pass number entered is eligible. This eligibility is based on settings in the stored procedure which can be customized to look for specific active media, specified age ranges, etc. This ensures the resort is only allowing guests that meet their criteria to purchase the Fast Flow product.

Info
NOTE: Aspenware has custom-built stored procedures for Fast Flow that can be shared with the resort. If capable, resorts can edit these on their own. But for complex changes and initial setup the resort may request Aspenware Professional Services for assistance.

2. Create a Rule in RTP|One that links to the stored procedure (provided by Aspenware). Then create a prompt that links to the newly created Rule

...

.

See steps 1 and 2 in this RTP|One Stored Procedure

...

Validated Prompt Setup guide.

3. Configure a product header that these Fast Flow products will book

...

To complete any order to

...

RTP|One a product header must be configured. Set this up like any standard product to be sold from Aspenware Commerce to RTP|One.

4. (Optional) Add Age Rules to the RTP|One product header

...

Only add if the products that will be sold through the Fast Flow configuration have age restrictions.

Note
IMPORTANT: The stored procedure will use the age rules set in RTP|One to determine who is eligible for Fast Flow assignment and will NOT use the age rules set in Aspenware Commerce. An exception to this is if the “Group Member” assignment is set up on the PDP. In this case follow standard the Aspenware Commerce age rule configuration Configuration: Age RulesAge Rule Configuration Guide.

Infrastructure Tasks

1. Install and enable the Fast Flow Plugin

...

• Go to Configuration > Local Plugins and change the “Group” filter to “Aspenware.”

• Locate the “Fast Flow Plugin” and click Install.

• Restart the application by clicking the green Restart application to apply changes button.

• Once complete, ensure the application is installed and enabled

...

2. (Optional) Enable Aspenware Commerce’s Selective Guest Checkout (see link for setup)

...

Info

NOTE: Fast Flow often works alongside Aspenware’s Selective Guest Checkout feature to enable guests to make purchases without logging in (they can log in if desired). If a guest opts to skip the login and creates a guest account during checkout, then the guest’s purchase will be associated with multiple accounts in the POS (ie: the account already in the POS system that has media AND the guest account they created during checkout). Additionally, there will not be an “assignment step” in checkout for Fast Flow products. If a guest is also purchasing a non-Fast Flow product that requires assignment during checkout, the Fast Flow product will not be displayed on the assignment screen.

Aspenware Commerce Tasks

1. Configure Fast Flow Plugin Settings and Language Strings

...

The settings defined in the Fast Flow plugin will cascade down to all Fast Flow products unless more specific settings are set up at the product level.

• Go to Aspenware Commerce > Fast Flow to customize the adjustable languages and settings.

Info
NOTE: These settings can also be defined at the product level, if defined at the product level then these settings will be overwritten for that specific product.

Settings:

RTP Prompt Code	Sets the defaut prompt code that will be used for all Fast Flow products that do not have a Fast Flow Prompt Code defined at the product-level.	productassignmentsettings.promptcode
QR Code Regex (Value In Group 1)	Sets the defaut Regex that will be used for all Fast Flow products that do not have a Regex defined at the product-level. This is an optional setting only required if using QR codes that have values that are not the guest’s exact media#. See notes below for more info.	productassignmentsettings.qrcodeformat

2. (Optional) Define the QR Code Regex

...

A QR code, like a bar code, is an encoded piece of data. The data in a QR code can be alphanumeric, numeric, or binary. The “QR Code regex” (or “regular expression”) specifies how to parse the data within the QR code. Resort’s QR codes may include URLs, pass media values, or other information related to the guest or resort. For example, the QR Code below contains the following URL: https://coppercolorado.com/media-scan?16142028098375385829=UID&mediaType=light

• 

• For this example, to properly capture only the RFID# 1614202809375385829; the Regex required to parse this is:

Code Block
media[iI][dD]=([^&#]*)

Info
NOTE: For more information on regex please visit https://regex101.com/r/hT67tA/1 Regex101. If your resorts need technical assistance, reach out to support@aspenware.com and Aspenware can help establish the Regex.

Note
IMPORTANT: Resorts utilizing the QR scanner on the Fast Flow PDP will REQUIRE use of Regex so that the scanner can trigger validation using the proper pass media values within the QR code (e.g. RFID).

3. Ensure that the products to which you are assigning Fast Flow Functionality to are set up in Aspenware Commerce

...

Create a typical standard Core product as documented

...

in Configuration: Product Shell.
