The Current Guest List report provides a point-in-time list of guests currently in-house, grouped and sorted to suit daily operations.
Overview
The Current Guest List is an interactive report that displays every guest currently in-house at the property at the time the report is generated. It is designed for front-office, housekeeping, and security teams who need a quick, printable list of who is on-site right now.
The report can be filtered by Category and Loyalty Membership Type, grouped and sorted to match the user's workflow, and limited to long-term, non-long-term, primary-guest-only, or non-group reservations.
Selecting Show Requirement In Notes will include any reservation Requirements alongside the reservation Notes in the output, which is useful for housekeeping and maintenance handover.
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.
