The Folio is a powerful and flexible tool for applying charges and payments to a customer's bill. Each Individual and Group booking has a Folio Tab in the Booking Screen. All Charges and Payments will appear in the Primary Folio which can be modified easily.
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.
The following are the main functions of the Folio:
