Night Audit & Control guide

Check-In Waits When the Night Audit Is Pending

Check-in pauses when yesterday's night audit is pending, so no room is charged on the wrong date and no invoice needs a credit note.

Stop wrong-date invoices before they print. If last night's audit has not run, your hotel is still on yesterday, and every charge and invoice made now lands on that old date.

What the desk sees

The card shows the date the day stopped on and how many hours behind it is. Check-in waits until that day is closed.

Why not just carry on?

Many systems let the desk keep going and leave the mess for month end, when a wrong invoice becomes a credit note. Here the problem is stopped at the door in one clear sentence, and one press closes the day.

Common questions

Why does a demo hotel show this notice? Nobody runs a demo property's front office, so its date slips behind as soon as it is set up. That says something about the demo, not about how your own property will run.
