00:46
option to view window number one and window number two side by side, or I can click the arrow to open
00:52
a list and select a different billing window to view in the panel. Next to add a charge to the
00:57
reservation I click post charge. Each reservation has up to eight separate billing windows.
01:04
Now click the code magnifying glass to select a code from the list and then click select. In this
01:10
example, the billing window number two is selected and I enter one thousand dollars as the price.
01:16
I could change the quantity but in the example I leave the quantity as
01:20
one and then click apply charge. Now I can see on billing window number two the one thousand
01:27
dollar banquet beverage charge is applied. I click the information folio to preview,
01:33
print, download, or email an information folio for this reservation. In this example I select email
01:43
add an email address,
01:47
and then click save. Then I click process to send the folio by email. I can click the vertical
01:54
ellipsis to view more options for each billing window including edit posting, transfer posting,
02:00
or to generate an interim folio. To add another reservation in billing I click other reservation
02:06
and then click add a reservation. Now I can click search. Select the check box next to the
02:13
reservation you want to add and then click select. Now I see the reservation is added and I can
02:19
switch between the two reservations. To transfer charges between billing windows or reservations
02:24
select the check box of the charges you want to transfer and then drag and drop the posting
02:29
from one window to another window or to another reservation listed. To post a payment to a window
02:36
click post payment. Now window 1 is selected. If needed I can click any window to post another
02:41
payment. Next I enter the amount 1058.80. I can select any payment method from the list and then
02:49
click apply payment. Now I can select preview, email to print for a pdf version or to email
02:56
and then click process. Now I see the billing window number one is paid with a zero balance.
