There are times when you need to transfer payments between guest folios such as a deposit that is made on one booking, but then needs to be split and applied to two bookings.

Since guest folio records are completely independent, you must actually create a set of transactions.

To transfer a transaction to a folio in another Guest Booking, there must be a transaction created in the original folio and a corresponding transaction created in the new folio.

For better record keeping, we recommend  creating a Receipt Type called Transfer Payment.

All of the transactions using this Receipt Type will be grouped together on your reports.

By using Transfer Payment in both transactions, there will be corresponding negative and positive transactions in the same Payment Type. These two amounts balance each other out and you have effectively moved a payment between bookings.
