Answer on your own first, then reveal the answer.
1. The end of day stops showing a Res ID. What do you do?
Note the Res ID, find the record, correct the issue in the warning (date, departure, folio, kuruş difference) and restart the end of day.
2. The program date is 10 days behind. What do you do?
If it is more than a week behind, do not try it yourself; the support team sets the program date. First make sure that no room in the lists has an arrival/departure older than the new date.
3. A guest wants to pay for tonight now but the charge is not on the folio. What do you do?
Post the charge now with Actions > Post One Night's Room Rate (Eylemler > Bir Gecelik Oda Fiyatını Bas) and take the payment; it is not posted again at the end of day.
4. You cannot get today's Official Guest List ("Maliye" list); it comes up empty. Why?
Today's list cannot be taken because the rates are posted at the end of day; after the end of day, take the previous day's list.
5. Where do you look at the reports after the end of day the next day?
From the Old End-of-Day Reports screen, by giving a date filter.
