Group.  Cashiering

Type.  Parameter

Application.  PMS

Description.  Fixed Bill Number per Folio Window per Guest per Stay

Internal Name. FIX_BILL_WINDOW

Property Determination. When a folio number is generated use a separate bill number for each window. Each window is located in history using a separate bill number.

Note: When FIXED BILL NUMBER PER WINDOW is active and GENERATE ZERO BILL is inactive, if a payment transaction from an already settled window 1 is moved to another window (e.g., window 2) and the reservation is checked out again by making a payment against window 1, the folio correctly prints if the Print Folio check box is selected on the Payment screen.

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.
