How to Split a Reservation from the PMS Calendar Page

Hello Softinn PMS Users!

Scenario: A guest (e.g., John) is staying for multiple nights (e.g., 3 nights in a Presidential Suite from October 30th to November 2nd), but you need to divide their booking into two separate reservations—for example, to move them to a different room type halfway through their stay or bill distinct nights to separate accounts.

Steps to Split a Reservation :


Phase 1: Enable Split Mode

  • Step 1: Log in to Softinn PMS and select the correct property.
  • Step 2: Click Calendar on the top navigation bar to open the calendar view.
  • Step 3: At the top right of the calendar page, click the three-dot button (…).
  • Step 4: Select Split Reservation from the dropdown menu to enter Split Mode. (A bar will appear at the bottom of the screen confirming split mode is active).

Phase 2: Configure & Confirm the Split

  • Step 5: Locate and click directly on the guest’s reservation bar on the calendar grid (e.g., John’s booking in room VR007).
  • Step 6: The Split Reservation panel will slide open on the right side of the screen displaying guest details, room type, and total night counts.
  • Step 7: Set the division point using one of two methods:
    • Select the date under Split From Date (e.g., choose 31 Oct 2026 to make the remaining 2 nights a new reservation segment).
    • OR drag the interactive Drag to split slider bar directly to your target date.
  • Step 8: Click Save.
  • Step 9: When the confirmation prompt appears, click Yes, Split it.

Phase 3: Verify & Exit

  • Step 10: The calendar will refresh to show two distinct, side-by-side reservation bars (e.g., Segment 1 for 1 night, and Segment 2 for 2 nights).
  • Step 11: Click Exit at the top bar or press the Esc key on your keyboard to turn off Split Mode.

Notes: Splitting a reservation generates a second unique reservation/folio number for the newly created segment. This makes it easy to assign a different physical room or apply separate billing settings to each portion of the stay without affecting the original booking history.

Hope this guide helps you easily manage room moves and split stays right from the Softinn PMS Calendar!
