Info

You can also use Hotel Manager in the following ways:

  • use Hotel Manager on your web server accessible via HTTP/HTTPS - download the JavaScript library from the dedicated server: the new version (starting from WMS 5.02.20201015.2)/ the old version and then upload the Hotel Manager folder on your server
  • upload Hotel Manager on your Wildix PBX - follow the instructions published in WebAPI documentAccess WebAPI Demo 

To access the Hotel Manager page, select the PBX user to use for access to the Hotel Manager interface (receptionist), and make sure that:

  • Collaboration web page is open at the same time as the Hotel Manager for that user on the same PC in the same browser
  • This user is of "admin" type (otherwise you will not be able to update the guest's name upon check-in):


  • Hotel rooms are added to the roster of your user; you can add rooms to your roster from Collaboration -> Other -> Edit Colleagues (read Collaboration guide - Colleagues (roster) for more information) or in WMS -> Users -> select a user and click Edit preferences, then scroll down to Roster (read WMS Start Guide - User preferences for more information):

You should be able to view rooms subdivided by their "Group" field ("Floor 1" and "Floor 2" in our case):

PBX differentiates national calls from foreign calls based on International Prefix in WMS -> Dialplan -> General settingsCountry code in trunk settings is used for number normalization (number is not normalized if country code is empty). It is recommended to create a separate ACL group for hotel rooms, as explained in the chapter Add rooms. In this way you will be able to restrict calls to certain destinations. For more information on recommended ACL restrictions and call class management, please carefully read the document ACL rules and Call classes management.

...

Enable PIN bypass for ACL restricted calls

This feature may often be applied to phones located in hotel common areas or in conference rooms. Here is an example:

  1. User dials a number that is restricted on this phone (for example, international phone number)

  2. User is prompted for the PIN since the call is not allowed from this phone normally

  3. User enters the PIN and if allowed based upon the entered PIN, the system routes the call to the restricted destination
