An enquiry does not hold a room.
An enquiry from the website, from ISKA Assistant, by email or by phone waits for a member of staff. The room is held when you confirm it. If you wish, you can allow direct booking from the website and from ISKA Assistant (both switches are off by default): the guest gets a confirmed reservation, without an advance payment.
Room calendar.
Rooms by date, with no overlap. The day of departure allows a new arrival. Repairs — a blocked period.
Reception.
Arrivals, in the hotel, departures. Check-in and check-out from the phone.
Bill and payments.
Nights and services, advance payments and further payments, balance. You record the payments you have received — in cash, by card or by bank transfer. “Card” is a note that the guest has paid outside the PMS.
Simple cash desk.
Cash movements, daily closing and difference.
Invoices.
To a guest or company, without re-entering the charges. Issuing is switched on after the data has been confirmed with the property's accountant.
Register and ESTI.
Checked-in guests and a file that you download and upload to ESTI manually.
Housekeeping and roles.
Manager, reception and limited access for housekeeping — no money and no documents.
