Hello Softinn PMS users! Softinn PMS has added a new feature for system default settings.

Hotel can now customize their default settings for security deposits on Softinn PMS. We believe by having this, it saves you a few clicks and your time when recording security deposit in Softinn PMS.

Security Deposits are the refundable amount paid by the guests to the hotels as insurance. It serves as a guarantee for the hotel for any incidental charges incurred by the guest during their stay.

After the guests make payment, the receipt is generated and provided to the guest. Usually, the guests need to present the receipt to the front office in order to get a refund of the security deposit when they check out from the hotel.
