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 and can be modified easily.
There is a two column reporting system for payments and charges in Folios. Next to each transaction you will see two icons: Modify (change $ amount of transaction) and Delete (deletes transaction from 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 (change $ amount of transaction) or Delete (deletes transaction from folio)
