Cashiering Setup
Cashiering setup includes transaction codes, transaction code groups/sub-groups, payment types, routing codes, cashiers, articles, exchange rates, and service charges.
Transaction Codes
Transaction Codes define every type of charge, payment, and adjustment that can be posted to a guest folio. Each code has a short code, name, group, and a set of flags that control how it behaves.
Transaction Code Groups
- Transaction code group — High-level grouping (e.g. Room, F&B, Tax).
Transaction Code Sub-Groups
- Transaction code sub-group — Finer grouping within a group.
Payment Types
Payment Types define the methods guests can use to pay their folio balance (e.g. Cash, Credit Card, Bank Transfer). They appear in the Payment modal in Cashiering → Transaction and Quick Checkout.
Routing Codes
Routing Codes define how charges are routed from a guest's folio to another payer (e.g. company, travel agent, or another room). Each routing code specifies which transaction codes are included in the routing.
Cashiers
Cashiers link user accounts to cash registers, enabling those users to log in to a cash register and use cashiering screens.
Articles (if used)
- Add / edit articles — Items or services (e.g. minibar, laundry) used for POS-style charges.
Exchange Rates (Cashiering)
If cashiering uses separate exchange rates:
Service Charges
Service Charges define automatic charges that are added on top of eligible billing items. For example, a 10% service charge applied to all room charges, or a 5% tax on food & beverage.
