Tableaux feature for your and your staff:

This is the best tool to manage and organize yours and your staff's work. The tableaux is a real digital agenda, dynamic and customizable.

It shows days with reservation details, and it gives you lots of precious functions that you will appreciate in your day-to-day job.
For example, you can add a note that will be visible just to your Cleaning Staff, or they can add a note (such as broken or stolen items) from their smartphones about a specific reservation.

What can you do with the Tableaux feature?

  • See existing reservations and bookings details:
    Booking ID, date of the booking, customer name, status, number of nights, the total price.
  • Add a custom day note:
    You can use day notes to add some custom festivities or events days for a specific date in the calendar. You can also create a reminder for temporary unavailability of pools or parking services, or report anything else regarding a specific date.
  • Add a custom room note:
    This is a useful tool for you or your staff to post any important issue regarding your Rooms. For example, you can keep a note of quotations received from customers, warnings about keys lost or cleaning requirements, or report anything else regarding a specific room or reservation.
  • Manage operators views in front-end:
    You can control Operator permissions views of the tableaux in front-end.
    You can decide for each Operator which rooms and for how long they can see the room, including reservations, notes, and reminders associated to that room.
    i.e. If you want to show cleaning staff only the rooms that need to be cleaned, you can add a room note for them and restrict their view to just those rooms.
