To split a transaction, display the In-House Guest Search screen ( Cashiering>Billing) and select the guest for whom you wish to split a transaction. When splitting transactions, all copies of receipts that got printed for that particular receipt, remain with the Master transaction (first transaction) where the split is originating from. The (M) indicator would appear following the currency code. If the currency divisor is set to one million, the Rate Query screen would show 15.5. For example, assume the rate amount is 155000000. When the currency divisor is active, an (M) for million or (K) for thousand, depending on the parameter setting chosen, follows the currency code. When the Currency Divisor feature is activated, the property can set a divisor of either one thousand (1000) or one million (1,000,000) through General>Currency Divisor Value application setting. Due to space limitations, these strings can't be easily accommodated by OPERA screens and reports. Note: Rates and other amounts expressed in the currencies of certain countries can involve strings of up to 16 digits. Note: You may not split deposit transfer transactions if the Cashiering>Advance Deposit Handling application setting is set to an option that creates a folio for a deposit (e.g., Print Folio for Deposit Receipt). Note: You may not split payment transactions or transactions that are part of a package. (See Transfer Transactions and Partial Posting for details.) Note: The Transfer function offers a Partial Posting option that allows you to split and transfer in a single operation. You can then move either of the resulting amounts to another window (by using the drag-and-drop method or by right clicking and selecting Transfer to Window from the Quick Menu) or to another guest's bill (by using the Transfer Transaction right-click Quick Menu option, or by dragging-and-dropping to another guest whose Billing screen is also opened). When a transaction is split, it is divided into two amounts within the same window. “But of course it's not what happened.” Instead, Hussein’s martyrdom at Karbala became the central story of Shia tradition, and is commemorated yearly as Ashoura, the most solemn date on the Shia calendar.You may split most posted transactions (including negative ones) by a fixed amount, a percentage, or a quantity. “It was obviously intended by the Ummayads to put the definitive end to all claims to leadership of the ummah as a matter of direct descendence from Muhammad,” says Hazleton of Hussein’s death, and the death of all the surviving members of Muhammad’s family, at Karbala. A massive Sunni army waited for them, and by the end of a 10-day standoff with various smaller struggles, Hussein was killed and decapitated, and his head brought to Damascus as a tribute to the Sunni caliph. In 681, Ali’s son Hussein led a group of 72 followers and family members from Mecca to Karbala (present-day Iraq) to confront the corrupt caliph Yazid of the Ummayad dynasty. Student Walkouts Ignited the Chicano Movement Battle of Karbala and Its Lasting Significance Within the century after Muhammad’s death, his followers had built an empire that stretched from Central Asia to Spain. This combination of money and power would only grow. At stake was not only control of Muhammad’s religious and political legacy, but also a great deal of money, in the form of taxes and tributes paid by the various tribes united under the banner of Islam. Ali eventually became the fourth caliph (or Imam, as Shiites call their leaders), but only after the two that preceded him had both been assassinated.Īli, himself, was killed in 661, as the bitter power struggle between Sunni and Shia continued. “This was important, because by the time he died, he had basically brought all the tribes of Arabia together into a kind of confederation that became the ummah-the people or nation of Islam.”Įventually the Sunni majority (named for sunna, or tradition) won out, and chose Muhammad’s close friend Abu Bakr to become the first caliph, or leader, of the Islamic community. “The essence of the problem is that Muhammad died without a male heir, and he never clearly stated who he would want to be his successor,” says Lesley Hazleton, author of After the Prophet: The Epic Story of the Sunni-Shia Split in Islam.
