How to use Tabology (BarTab) POS

 This article covers essential information for using Tabology (BarTab) POS after connecting it to your property. If you still need to get started, refer to this article.

Functionality

    • When a user checks in to Cloudbeds, a tab is automatically created in BarTab with the name of the Cloudbeds customer as the tab name.

    • Any items added to the tab will automatically be reflected in the Cloudbeds folio. However, it is also possible to post an item later if the guest is still in-house (checked-in).

  If you want the Folio to indicate that charges were made through Tabology, you must request it directly from Tabology's Support. This will ensure that "Tabology and the Receipt Number" are included in the notes.

    • These items can be printed on the invoice/folio in the reservation (in Cloudbeds PMS) provided to the customer at check-out.
    • Cloudbeds reporting will categorize items posted by Tabology in their own section so they can be filtered in the Transactions report.
    • Once the user checks out Cloudbeds, the tab automatically closes on the BarTab system. If the bar closes the tab, BarTab will re-open it if the user is still checked in.

Void Items

Items need to be voided on BarTab's system. Once voided, they will be automatically removed from the guest's folio. This can be done by clicking the item and selecting Void Item on Cloudbeds on the pop-up as shown below:

 Current limitations:

    • Voids need to be handled directly in BarTab.
    • BarTab assumes that the bill/invoice is settled by Cloudbeds.
    • House Accounts can't be synced with BarTab.
    • BarTab isn't synced with Cloudbeds' Stock Inventory.
