Stay Information Overview

Whenever you work with guest reservation information in the system, you are working with a "stay." This includes creating a reservation, checking in a walk-in guest or guest with a reservation, or when you select to modify a folio. The Stay information is gathered together by Skyware Systems into a "Folio" screen, which contains multiple tabs. These tabs allow you to manage your basic Guest or Group information for a particular stay. (Please see Stay Information Overview (Group Folio) for more details on managing a Group Stay). The Modify Folio command allows you to modify the Stay record/Folio for a Guest or a Group.

 

 

When selected, the Guest Main Folio with the Stay Information will open.

When a Guest or Group Folio is open, there is a toolbar across the top of the screen containing command buttons that provide access to the available functionality. Hovering the mouse over each button will show a tool-tip containing the name of that button.
