Inventory Items

To add or edit Inventory Groups go to SETUP | PARAMETERS | INVENTORY ITEMS. Inventory Items allow you to create specific items for sale through your House Account or as additional charges to a Guest Folio. These items appear in the drop-down list in Add Charge and as Items for sale on your website if you have the POS feature enabled. See POS Module.These items can also be in seen in Daily Reports -  Item Analysis Reports.

Once you create an Inventory Item, you can assign it to an Inventory Group, See Inventory Groups

There are four Inventory Items that have already been setup for your property and it is important that you do not modify or remove them: RENT, PHONE, NOSHOW and DB. These mandatory Inventory items enable charges to be posted to folios including Room Rent, No Show charges, and Guarantee by Direct Bill.

Add as many Inventory Items as needed.

Add Inventory Item: To add a new item click Add in the lower right hand corner and fill out the fields.

In the example below we are adding an Inventory Item for a Continental Breakfast which is part of the FOOD Inventory Group. The item costs the property $8 and sells to the guest for $15.95 per person and is subject to 9.25% State Tax and the alternate 'City Health Initiative' tax the property has defined.


The Online flag dictates whether this Inventory item will be available for guests to select during an online booking and can be used in creating packages.
