Understanding the room status update screen

You use the Room Status Update screen to update the room status, housekeeping status, and service type of rooms. Multiple search criteria are available for you to search for the specific room or set of rooms to update. The rooms returned from the search show in a grid with detailed information. You are then able to select all or some of the rooms for update. The values of the Arrival Time, Turndown Time and Cleaning Time fields are displayed when the status of the Guest Stay is ‘Reserve’ or ‘Pre-Reg’ and the current Hotel Date is same as the Arrival Date. The Arrival Date and Next Arrival Date are displayed when the Guest Stay Arrival Date is same as current Hotel Date or within 31 days of the current Hotel Date. The Action, Scheduled Return Time, Cleaning Start Time, and Cleaning End Time are based on the current “In-House” Guest Stay record. The hotel arrival time is displayed on the grid based on the value specified in the Hotel Arrival Time field on the Guest Stay screen.
