The Tape Chart has a variety of powerful features that make managing booking and availability easy and efficient.  To learn more about the Tape Chart Functions, see Tape Chart. See the Tape Chart Guide below for an explanation of the Tape Chart interface.

All Bookings appear on the Tape Chart color coded and with an an icon to indicate Booking Status. There are four types of Booking Status that are displayed according the to the status of the booking. These will automatically update on the Tape Chart after you modify the booking. For example, if you have an unconfirmed booking in red and then change the status of the booking to confirmed, it will automatically change to blue on the Tape Chart. It is important to note that reservations that do not have rooms assigned will not show up on the tape chart.To change the status of a booking, go to the Booking Details of the Guest. See Booking Status for more details.
