Entering a move

Front Office Options Enter Moves

protel HMS allows you to easily enter reservations with a move (i.e. room change) during the stay. protel manages such room changes and shows which guests move(d) rooms on which day. It cannot, however, know exactly at what time a guest will leave the old room and move to the new one. The Enter Moves feature allows you to enter the exact time in the system, e.g. in order to block the phone line in the old room at that time and activate it in the new room.
