The Housekeepers Report is an interactive daily report that lists every Housekeeping Task scheduled for a selected date, with options to group by Housekeeper, include Maintenance and customise the columns shown.
Overview
The Housekeepers Report is usually run each morning to give the Housekeepers an overview of their tasks for the day. Each row shows a Housekeeping Task assigned to a specific Area for the chosen date, including details such as the Guest Name, departure date, Task, Task Status, allocated time, and any Notes.
Properties can utilise the Housekeeping Roster to allocate tasks to Housekeepers, which will then reflect on the Housekeepers Report.
Adhoc Housekeeping Tasks will appear on the report, but they need to be assigned to a Housekeeper through the Housekeeping Roster.
Please Note! RMS is highly configurable. Some Terminology, User Access & Permissions, Images, Labels, and Functions used in these articles may differ from your setup. CLICK HERE to find out more.
Important! Housekeeping task assignments for a reservation are stored for 100 days after departure (or 200 days for Trust Properties). After this period, the assignments are automatically removed to help keep the database optimised.
Use Cases
- Daily task allocation - Each morning the housekeeping supervisor runs the report and prints a task list per Housekeeper (using Group By Housekeepers) so staff know which Areas need a departure clean, service, service with linen, or inspection.
- Time tracking - Managers compare the Time Req and Time Spent columns to review allocated time against the actual time staff record in the Staff Portal.
- Requirements preparation - Staff review the Notes and Linen columns to prepare extra requirements such as cots, rollaway beds, or additional towels ahead of arrivals.
Please Note! The Housekeepers Report only lists tasks once the Housekeeping module is set up and Housekeeping Tasks are allocated to the Area or Reservation (for example, via the Housekeeping Roster).
