1 Overview
The guest database is designed to deal with repeat guests. If you require CRM functions you can set up an integration with many CRM systems via MAKE in (SETTINGS) APPS & INTEGRATIONS > MAKE.
The guests menu combines bookings by the same guest and allows you to save information about the guest and view their previous bookings.
The search field can be used to search guests by booking reference, name, Email address or any other information saved about them.
When a new booking has the same Email address as a previous booking the system will automatically create a guest record in the database and will combine the bookings as the same guest.
If you do not want to automatically create entries for the guest database you can set this in SETTINGS->ACCOUNT->PREFERENCES.
Manual changes of Email addresses in bookings do not automatically move bookings.
Initial booking from a new guest, will NOT automatically create a guest record in the guest database. If you want to add a record for a new guest, then open the booking, go to the Guest tab and click 'Add Guest' then select 'Create guest from booking' the guest will be added to the database with the booking details attached.
