About the Banquet Event Order (BEO) Report

Event managers generate and print a Banquet Event Order (BEO) report before an event occurs. This report provides the operation execution team with detailed information about food, beverages, and setup requirements for all functions covered by a single order.

As shown in Figure 14, the report consists of several sections that provide a summary of the property, account, contact, order, function, and function line item details for the event. The information helps the event execution team manage the event.

The top section of the report provides administrative information about the property, the account, the event contact, and event order details.

When notes are created and associated with the order, the notes are displayed beneath the top section. If there are multiple order notes, the notes are sorted by Sequence #. The list includes both internal (private) and external (public) notes.
