    Information

    A Reservation Area Move will accurately record the Reservation Stay Dates spent in each Area when using Split Reservations.

    Split Reservations is an optional feature that must be enabled before it can be used and will apply to all Properties for Enterprise customers.

    When Split Reservations is enabled the Area change on the Reservation is accurately recorded for the Reservation Stay Dates in each Area.

    When Split Reservations is not enabled and the Area is changed on a Reservation in 'Arrived' status the Reservation will be moved to the new Area for the full length of stay.

    When Split Reservations is enabled and a Reservation Area Move occurs when the Reservation is in 'Arrived' status the Reservation will be split to accurately record the time spent in each Area and will include a cover page linking each Split Reservation together for cohesive management of the Guest's entire stay at the Property.

    A Reservation Area Move can be completed on the Booking Chart or directly on the Reservation and can be split in advance to secure the change of Area ahead of the Guest's move during their stay.

    A Reservation Area Move with Split Reservations can be used for any Area including Interconnecting Areas.

    The Area Moves Report will list all Reservations for the selected date range where the Area was changed when the Reservation was in 'Arrived' status.

    Split Reservations is not available for Owner and Trust Accounting Properties.

    Owner and Trust Accounting Properties or Properties not using Split Reservations can use a Master Reservation to manually split the Guest's stay between multiple Areas.



    Arrive, Depart, Category, Area, Reservation, Guest and Rate are default System Labels that can be customised.



    Users will require Security Profile access to use this feature.
