Updating Room Information

  3. Select a room to update the information.

Entering Credit Card

  1. Once the reservation has been made, select the corresponding room and select Add Credit Card.

    • Please Note: Open Edge/PPI platforms do not support saving a credit card for a room.

  2. Once Add Credit Card is selected, a window will populate allowing the User to enter Member Credit Card information.

    • Please Note: ETS is the current example, the window from a different Payment Processor may look slightly different.

  3. Once Member Credit Card information has been entered and saved, it will populate for the room, as seen here.

    • Please Note: Credit cards are linked to rooms not individual occupants.  If two or more occupants are in a room, only one credit card may be attached to a room.

Settle Folio

  1. Select the Folio Button to open the Folios for this reservation.

  2. Select the room to add the Deposit. Then select Settle Folio.

  10. If yes, then the Credit Card on file will be charged. If no, a prompt will ask the User to swipe or manually enter information for another Credit Card, as seen below.

  11. The deposit will now be reflected as a credit on the room Folio.

  12. Double clicking the transaction row will allow for edits. From here the deposit description field can be changed to ‘Deposit for Guest Room’ or something similar.
