Journal by Cashier and Article Code (finjrnl_articles with CAS13.FMX)

The Configuration report for Articles is available if the CASHIERING > ARTICLES application function is set to Y.

The Journal by Cashier and Article Code will display one line for each posted Article for the selected date. Similar to other financial reports, this allows you to see when, to whom and who posted an Article to a Reservation or an AR Account.

Articles allow a property to post certain items to a guest folio in such a way that they appear to have come from a single transaction code. A typical example would be the items in a mini bar. One mini bar transaction code would be configured, however, instead of posting a lump sum to one transaction code you can post the breakdown of that total. Instead of posting 10.00 to mini bar, you can enter 2.00 to Orange Juice, 2.00 to Coca-Cola, 2.50 to Potato Chips and 3.50 to Nuts.
