GuestPoint® makes creating confirmations very easy. At the time of making the
new booking, if you have entered an
email address for the guest, you can simply select the relevant checkbox to
print or email the confirmation.
If you select email, the
Email Services screen opens and you can further personalise the confirmation, add attachments (such as brochures, maps etc. by
clicking Choose From Folder)
and also add any additional information for the guest by
typing in the message field.
You can easily preview the confirmation by clicking 'Preview' to see all the booking details.
Close the Preview Email screen and click ‘Start Sending’. GuestPoint® then queues the email and this will be sent automatically within the next 5 minutes. You
can see the status of the emails in ‘Email Services’ on
the left panel below the main tabs.
GuestPoint® lets you see the emails that are waiting to be sent by clicking on
this link. Again, the Email Services screen opens and you can choose to delete emails by clicking the trash can icon and then ‘Save’.
A record of emails sent to the guest is recorded in the Email and Text Log within the
Reservation Screen and you can see the contents of the email by clicking the view icon.
You can quickly and easily
edit the templates used for the emails you send from GuestPoint® including
Booking Confirmations, Room Accounts, Invoices, Statements etc, from the Email
Merge Templates tab. For more information on these templates, see the Email
Merge Templates section in this User Guide.
