Last modified on:

Overview

When the wrong payment type is selected for a payment, it can be corrected prior to the End of Day Cutoff being completed, and the reservation being Checked Out.

Steps

If the Description displays as "Deposit Converted":

  1. Reverse the Deposit:
    - Navigate to the reservation's Charges/Payments tab.
    - If it displays as "Deposit Converted" within the Description section, the deposit needs to be reversed.
    - Click on "Chg" next to "Deposit Converted - Transfer From Dep. Liab."

  1. Change Payment:
    - The Change Payment box will appear.
    - Click on the "Change Settlement Type" option to select the correct payment type required from the dropdown menu.
    - Click "Submit."

  1. Confirmation:
    - Click "Yes" on the pop-up message.

If the Description displays as "Payment Made":

  1. Change Payment Type:
    - Navigate to the reservation's Charges/Payments tab.
    - If it displays as "Payment Made" within the Description section, click on "Chg" next to "Payment Made - Payment Type."

  1. Select Change Settlement Type:
    - Click on the "Change Settlement Type" option to select the correct payment type required from the dropdown menu.

  1. Confirmation:
    - Click "Yes" to the pop-up message.

  1. Verify Payment Type:
    - The payment will now display under the new payment type selected.

Troubleshooting

After End of Day Cutoff has been completed

  • Once the End of Day cutoff has been completed, payments cannot have the payment type changed to another payment type.
  • The payment will need to be reversed off, and a new payment must be applied to the reservation using the correct payment type.
