Use this program to:

• Create and define up to 10 codes for desired vehicle options or features that customers may request such as heated seats, a back up camera, automatic braking, bluetooth, proximity sensors, etc.

Although this is part of the logic developed for the Hertz Interface to EAM, this logic can be used by other CARS+ users. Once set up, the features can become part of the vehicle search accessed from Reservations, RA Open, and Vehicle Inventory Control. This allows the rental agent to search for vehicles which have the feature(s) that the customer is requesting.

Refer to the chapter Overview - Vehicle Features instructions for set up and practical use of this logic.

To access the Edit Vehicle Features Codes program, type EDFEAT (RET) at any menu "OPTION:" field or the appropriate line number on the Fleet Control Files menu. The screen will then display:

OPTION: __ EDIT VEHICLE FEATURE CODES 1 Feature Code 2 Feature Desc 3 Feature Priority 4 Feature Old Code 1SAVE 2NEXT 3ERASE 4DELETE 5BACKUP 6 7HELP 8

Enter data as follows:

1. FEATURE CODE	Enter up to 20 alphanumeric characters to define a vehicle feature. EXAMPLE: Type HEATED SEATS (RET)
2. FEATURE DESCRIPTION	Enter up to 10 alphanumeric characters for a shorter description that will display in the Model Code file and in the Vehicle Search. EXAMPLE: Type HT SEATS (RET)
3. FEATURE PRIORITY	Assign a priority code of 1 - 10 to this feature to rank the importance of this feature when the vehicle search program is used. Use 1 for the most important feature, use 2 for the next most important feature, etc. A Feature Priority cannot be used more than once (that is, there cannot be 2 features with same priority) and only levels 1 through 10 can be used. EXAMPLE: Type 1 (RET)
4. FEATURE OLD CODE	If Vehicle Options (as defined in Edit Vehicle Options) are already used, this field is used to map an existing 2 character vehicle option code to this new record. The program Set Vehicle Feature Values is provided to update model code and vehicle records by replacing the old 2-character code with the new one created in Field 1. EXAMPLE: Type HS (RET)

The screen will then display:

OPTION: __ EDIT VEHICLE FEATURE CODES 1 Feature Code HEATED SEATS 2 Feature Desc HT SEATS 3 Feature Priority 1 4 Feature Old Code HS 1SAVE 2NEXT 3ERASE 4DELETE 5BACKUP 6 7HELP 8

PRESS "F1"AT "OPTION:" TO SAVE THE RECORD.

Continue to create up to 10 features that are offered.

User tip: When the F2 key is used to scroll through this file, the codes will be in alphabetical order. However, in the Vehicle Search and the Model Code records the codes are listed in order of the assigned priority.
