Information

Bed Configuration is an optional feature available when using Housekeeping in RMS to record and manage the types of beds and linen required for a reservation.

Linen calculations will use the values entered on a Bed Configuration to determine the Linen requirements for a Reservation on the Housekeepers Report and Linen Numbers Report.

Bed configurations can be setup without linen to only manage the types of beds needed for a reservation if no Linen tracking or forecasting is required.

Bed Configurations can be allocated to a Category or Area to automatically populate on a Reservation and related reports.

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.
