The Charge Routing automatically redirect posted charges to a specified destination, i.e. a booking folio, specified function bill split within the same event or to a different event, ledger folio, Non-Resident Account (NRA) or to Master Accounts.

⚠️ Important:

  • Charge routing will not route deposits, or payments. Please make sure that these are posted in the correct destination so as not to cause confusion during the billing stage.
