FAQ - Why would I transfer a posting?
The Transfer feature lets you transfer Folios or individual postings to other guests or Folio Windows. It has several applications. For example, you might use it when a guest wishes to pay the charges for one or more other guests. Or, it can be used when guests wish to split certain charges between them. It also can be used when charges for a group of guests is being billed to one master account for payment.
How to Transfer a Posting
The Transfer function is available on the Manage Billing screen. Select Actions and then choose Transfer Posting to display the Transfer screen.
1. Select Transfer Scope and Direction
You can transfer entire or partial postings between guest bills (using room numbers) or from one Folio Window to another. Once a posting or part of a posting is transferred, it is removed from the "sending" guest's bill and displays on the "receiving" guest's bill.
If transferring a Folio Window, you are prompted to select the Window. If transferring to or from rooms, you are prompted to indicate a room number and guest name.
