Fixed door code ability for Manual Locks

Currently only options for manual door lock for a property are:

• Use the guest's phone number
• Generate a random number
• Don't generate, I will assign codes one by one

Would like the option to just set a fixed code for all booking that come in at a specific property. For example: set a permanent property door code of 1234 which is applied to all bookings that come in and populate the appropriate door code field on email templates.

You can accomplish this by using a Custom Field!

Step 1: Create a Property-Type Custom Field

1. Navigate to Settings > Custom Field Definitions
2. Click Create Field Definition
3. Configure the field:
   • Type: Select Property (this makes the field specific to each property)
   • Name: Something like "Door Code" or "Entry Code"
   • Merge Code: Create a short code like DOORCODE (OwnerRez will prefix it automatically, making it {PXDOORCODE})
   • Format: Select Plain Text (since you just need the code number)
4. Click Save

Custom Fields > Custom Field Definitions > Types of Field Codes

Step 2: Set the Door Code Value for Your Property

1. Go to Settings > Custom Field Definitions
2. Click on your newly created "Door Code" custom field
3. You'll see a list of all your properties - click Change on the property in question and enter 1234 (or whatever code you want) for the specific property
4. Save your changes

Custom Fields > Property-Type Custom Field View

Step 3: Add the Field Code to Your Email Templates

In any email template where you want the door code to appear, simply insert the field code {PXDOORCODE} (or whatever merge code you created). This will automatically populate with the correct door code for that property.

For example, in your pre-arrival email:

Your door code is: {PXDOORCODE}
