Reservation Cloning:
Clients who are using this module have a high repeat business percentage. Lodge-ical allows you to quicklly create a new reservation based upon an existing reservation. When the Jones leave in August and want to rebook for next year, you will simply press a button and "clone" all or some of the reservation components (i.e., room assignments, rates, guest links, activities, etc...).
Reservation Quotes:
This module is designed for Lodge-ical clients who work with corporations and large groups who are interested in a price estimate prior to the actual booking. The components include the following:
- One form allows you to view and manage all of your outstanding quotes. A new quote consists of a client's name, assumed arrival and departure dates, and the appropriate reservation costs. Activities can also be entered to show the contact person a suggested itinerary (it can include both meals and activities).
- A quote confirmation including both the pricing and suggested itinerary to send to the prospect. Once the quote is confirmed you can easily convert the quote to a reservation.
- If the quote is rejected, you can cancel the quote.
The following quote is direct from the client describing his reason for the custom requirement: "Prior to this module, I used to prepare all of our quotes using another system. Once the quote was confirmed, then I would go into Lodge-ical and enter the reservation. The Reservation Quote module has provided me the following advantages: a) I do not have to rely on another system, b) the quote confirmation that I send is consistent with other Lodge-ical correspondence, c) once I confirm a quote I just have to press one button and it becomes a confirmed reservation, and d) the module is very easy to work with." -Kim Cannon, Greystone Castle.
Food and Beverage Analysis:
This module is used by clients who are interested in the relationship between the price of a guest/employee meal versus the actual food and beverage expense account. It features the following:
- Maintenance - enter each meal that you serve, the price of the meal, and the category (food/beverage, and adult/child/employee).
- Each time you receive a food or beverage delivery, enter the amount of the invoice.
- Enter food and beverage sales - on a periodic basis (i.e., daily, weekly, monthly), enter the number of meals you have served.
- Food and Beverage Cost Analysis report - this report breaks down the food cost and beverage cost as a particular date in time.
The following quote is direct from the client describing his reason for the custom requirement: "The Food and Beverage portion of your guest ranch is a very important cost/revenue producing center. This is one area that can be monitored, it can be improved and it can make or break your season. Lodge-ical helped us create a Food and Beverage module that allowed us to track "sales" in the dining room and to utilize proper food cost analysis that created a very clear picture of what it cost to feed each guest as well as each crew member. With very little time spent entering in inventory and guest/crew meal numbers you can have a report which will show you how your kitchen is doing. The Food and Beverage module is not a "fixed" cost. You can control it and you can find a way to make it work for your operation. Kristin and Paul at Lodge-ical are easy to work with, great at customer service and even better at understanding the needs of our operation. This F&B module is just another great tool in helping you to provide your guests with the best service available." -Doug Hare, Red Rock Ranch
