You can now see a listing of all active folios. Choose the correct folio to settle the transaction. In this example, we will select Michael Mathis’s folio. This process is the recommended method, as it keeps the ticket details intact.
Please Note: For inactive folios from the past, you can use the Lookup Folio button to type in the folio number to settle this ticket. This is a separate permission that is usually reserved for managers only.
Edit Posted Transaction
If the sales batch for this transaction is posted, you will not see the ‘Edit Invoice In POS’ button to reopen the ticket, when you look at the transaction details.
Instead, By selecting ‘Settle Folio’ you can now adjust the Remaining Balance - in this case to $97.
Just highlight $833.90 and then type in the amount you need to be transferred.
Then select Cash/Credit/Member Charge/Other to launch POS like you would when settling a credit card.
Again, select Close Ticket to access the Room Folio settlement type.
Selecting Room Folio will show you a list of active folios that you can transfer this amount from one folio to a new one.
Now we see a credit of $97 on the original folio and a charge of $97 on the other person’s folio.
To clarify the transaction on the folio, you may want to open the transaction details and change the description to reflect the transfer, as shown below.
It will be up to the Club to determine if they want to leave the two transactions on the folio to show the charge and the credit, or move them to a different folio to clean up the one they will present the occupant. View the differences below.
