Each Individual and Group booking has a Folio Tab in the Guest Booking Details. To manage the folio of a Guest Booking, locate the booking and then click on the Folio Tab in the Booking Details.

The Folio is a powerful and flexible tool for applying charges and payments to a Guest bill.  All Charges and Payments will appear in the Guest's Primary Folio and stayed attached to the Guest Booking.

The functions available in the Folio allow you to create additional folios, transfer items between folios and email or print folios. These can be used as a Guest Receipt or you can create a customized Receipt Letter. See Letters.

Folio Transactions

The two column reporting for payments and charges in Folios allows you to view the totals separately. This is helpful when balancing the folio. 

  • Charges and Payments: The two column format allows you to  see each charge or payment as a line item with a corresponding $ amount in the Charges or Payments columns. The total of each column is shown at the end with the Cusomter balance shown at the end of the Folio.  A positive balance indicates an $ amount due. A negative balance indicates a credit balance due to a prepayment or deposit.

  • Modify and Delete Icons: Click on each icon to either modify or delete the transaction.
