Checked-Out


RoomRaccoon PMS sends the invoices to QuickBooks of all the newly checked-out bookings. This means a booking needs to have the status checked-out for so that the invoice is finalised and no additional charges may be added.


As soon as a booking receives the status checked-out, an unique invoice number is assigned which will be added as a reference into your QuickBooks account.



Fully Paid


A guest can check out in the morning however the invoice will be paid by the company a week after the guests stay. Even though the status is checked out the invoice will not be exported to Quickbooks as the bill needs to be fully paid first.
