There many be times when a payment or deposit needs to be divided up and applied to each of the guest bookings.or charges moved to another folio in the Group. To move a Payment from one booking to another booking, there must be a transaction created in Group Master Folio and a corresponding transaction created in the Guest folio. See example below.
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.To set up a new Receipt Type, go to SETUP | PARAMETERS | RECEIPT TYPES See Receipt Types
