What Is The Product?
Products are defined by how they are set up and have many different options, configurations and structures that give the user almost limitless capabilities on how the structure of ResPax is maintained. Every ResPax package database is unique in it's own way and because of this, creating a generalised product to go through in the tutorial is not possible.
This tutorial will explain what the product is that will be created by the end before going through the different steps. Please Note: If more information is needed regarding products, please refer to ResPax Examples where more complex and defined tours are available for study and download.
Structure Overview
The product that will be created in this tutorial is a standard day tour called the "Tutorial Experience" that gives a sight seeing tour of the city. The tour runs every day starting at 09:00am and can only hold 30 passengers at a time. There are no components attached, prices are $100 per Adult and $50 per Child and passengers need to make their own way to the day tour's start location.
