A lot of facilities are now selling adult beverages to their guest via Bar & Restaurant, and not all of them want their guests to be able to get into an activity after consuming a beverage. For safety reasons, of course!
By turning on the Alcohol Action Setup feature, your staff will be required to assign the guests account to each alcoholic beverage they purchase. This will mark their account as to not allow them to be added to any future activities. If they are already assigned into an activity, they are good to go, but any activities a staff member tries to add them to after purchasing a cocktails will be blocked.
NOTE: This setting is limited to a single beverage!
