Comp Posting Journal

The Comp Posting Journal feature provides a detailed summary of the transactions that have been routed or transferred to the comp windows (101...108).

You can use this feature to determine which transactions were approved, staged (that is, not approved), and declined by the Patron Tracking System (PTS). Staged transactions can be re-submitted to the PTS for approval if a gaming interface is active, or they can be transferred to another of the guest's Billing screen windows or to another room.

Available from the OPERA Cloud menu by selecting Financials, selecting Comp Accounting, and then selecting Comp Posting Journal, the Comp Posting Journal enables you to search by authorizer (required field), start date, end date, transaction code, room number, reference, and supplement. When Comp Transaction Status parameter is enabled in OPERA Controls, additional search filters for approval code, approved, staged, and declined are available.

The below actions are available for the comp transactions listed in the search results, enabling you to access options related to the transaction and the associated reservation. To access these options for a transaction, click the row-level vertical ellipsis.
