FIXED BILL NUMBER PER RESERVATION Application Setting

Type.  Parameter

Application.  PMS

Description.  Fixed Bill Number per Guest per Stay

Internal Name. FIX_BILL_NUMBERING

Property Determination. When a folio number is generated, use the same number for each subsequent checkout/interim bill/advanced bill generated for the reservation regardless of the window. This bill number can be used to pull up all folio window totals in history. The folio that is settled to the AR account, when viewing from an AR account, shows the details for the respective transactions belonging to the invoice number that they were applied to.

Note: When the AR SETTLEMENT PRINT TASK parameter is active and settling a Billing window that already has transactions that were settled to Direct Bill and have bill number assigned, any new charges without a bill number settled to any other payment method other than Direct Bill will also use the AR FOLIO layout and AR FOLIO PRINT TASK, the reason being that the folio will already include the direct bill transaction from earlier settlement.
