Direct Bill - Execu/Suite PMS Interface

PMS to Direct Bill (City Ledger) Data Flow

  1. Create General Ledger / Direct Bill Postings (or something similar) is on the Night Audit menu.

  2. Go to Parameter Record

  3. General ledger/ A/R Update terminal (1-8): Enter the one-digit terminal ID for the computer that will receive the transactions posted during the night audit procedures. The DB transactions transferred from Guest Ledger to City Ledger will go to this designated terminal so that the A/R person can process them. To determine the terminal ID setting, see Terminal ID Number Codes-Batch Terminals .


  4. Click on Print Options at the bottom of the Parameter Record. The window below will open.



    Balance to print on DB folios: A = A/R balance + folio, F = folio only, L = balance less DB payments.
