This booking summary contains all relevant details about the booking aside from payment details.


 

Filters

Your filters are effectively the tools that help you narrow down a search so that the bookings you’re looking for can be located more quickly. This is great for finding individual bookings or even for getting a list of bookings booked on a common criteria (i.e. booking booked on the same rate). Different filters allow for these varied search results.

By default, bookings are displayed in the order they have imported, with newest bookings at the top. You can sort your bookings by any header fields by clicking the arrow icon next to that field name. Clicking the icon again will swap the order of bookings.

Reference

This field allows you to search by most basic and specific filter, using the unique booking reference number. Bookings made on your channels will import with the channel’s booking reference number.

Partial reference number searches will display relevant results.

Source

Bookings can be viewed based on where they were made. You are able to filter by Levart bookings, Levart External Bookings or Channel bookings. You can narrow your results by a sub-field or by a specific source.

Profile

The Profile field allows you to filter bookings by Client Profiles or Promo Codes. You can sort by all Promo Codes or all Client Profiles, or narrow your results to a specific one.

Surname

You are able to search bookings by specific Surnames by entering a relevant guest surname into the Surname text field.

Check In

Bookings can be viewed from the date of check in via a custom date range. This allows you to filter bookings by guests due to arrive on a certain day or range of dates.

Clicking a date on the date picker will automatically fill the From date field, and clicking another future date on the calendar will fill the To date field. Click Apply to apply the filter, Clear to start a new date selection, or Cancel to sort by a different filter.

Selecting Custom Period from the Date Range drop down allows you to select Next or Previous Day, Week or Month filters.

Length of Stay

Filter your bookings by their length of stay by typing a number into the LOS text field.


Date Requested

Bookings are filtered by Requested by default, with newest bookings displayed at the top of the Booking Control page.

You are able to search bookings based on the day the booking was made. This can also be done by range by clicking a date on the date picker, which will automatically fill the From date field, and clicking another future date on the calendar will fill the To date field. Click Apply to apply the filter, Clear to start a new date selection, or Cancel to sort by a different filter.
