Check Out

To check out a guest:

  1. Click Check Out on the reservation row.
  2. If the reservation has Check Out alerts, a modal shows them first — review and close.
  3. A confirmation dialog shows the room number and guest name.
  4. Confirm. The status changes to Checked Out and the reservation moves to the Checked-Out list.
  5. The room status updates to Vacant Dirty — housekeeping will clean it.
caution

Settle the folio balance before checking out. An outstanding balance does not block checkout but should be resolved per your property's policy.

Room Move

To move an in-house guest to a different room:

  1. Click Room Move on the reservation row.
  2. Step 1 — Optionally update the status of the room the guest is leaving (Clean, Dirty, Inspected, Pickup). This is optional; skip to go straight to step 2.
  3. Step 2 — Select the destination room. Only rooms of the same room type as the current room are shown. Only vacant/available rooms appear.
  4. Click Move to room. The reservation is updated, the old room status is set to Vacant, and the new room status is set to Occupied.
note

Room Move only works within the same room type. To move a guest to a different room type, edit the reservation directly.

Group Reservations

Reservations belonging to a group are shown together. Use Expand All / Collapse All to toggle group rows. Group ID and group name are shown in the group header row.

Alerts on Check Out

If a reservation has alerts configured to display at Check Out, they appear in a read-only modal before the checkout confirmation. Review the alerts and close the modal to proceed with checkout.
