Generating city tax report

Use to generate a report that lists all guests that are or were in-house on the dates for which the report is generated and displays the City Tax Amount posted for these reservations together with the Guest Stay Tax Status, when applicable. The report lists only guest stays and city tax postings to guest folios. If you adjust city tax postings on a reservation some days after the stay, the adjustment is not displayed in the report.
