This page is about the menu BOOKINGS > GUESTS

1 Overview

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.

Whenever there is a new booking from an Email address which has not booked before the system will NOT automatically create a new guest. You will need to manually add the new guest to the database.

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.

If a new booking has the same Email address as a previous booking the system 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.
