Automated Digital Check-In Process

  • When the automated digital check-in process begins at the configured start time or when the process is started by the user manually, the following message is displayed in the Automated Digital Check-In section: Automated check-in status: Running.

  • When the process stops at the configured end time or if the process is manually stopped by the user, the message, Automated check-in status: Stopped, is displayed.

  • When the automated digital check-in process is disabled by the user manually, Automated check-in status: Disabled, is displayed.

  • When an end time is not configured, the message, Automated check-in status: Running, is displayed until the next action is performed.

Based on the configured start and end time, the automated digital check-in process begins when a soft check-in is performed for the reservation and the mentioned criteria is met. Guests can check-in at the property directly and need not wait until the start time is reached to complete the check-in process. Users can also modify the configured start and end time if required. When the property date changes on date roll, the manually selected automated check-in process will be reset, and the value of the Manual Automated Check-In Process field will be reset to the value that was selected by default.

Once the Automated Digital Check-In feature setting is enabled, the automated check-in process is carried out for the entire day (24hrs) until the date roll to the next business date for the configured time frame.

An automated digital check-in icon is displayed when the property has configured the automated digital check-in feature. This icon is displayed on the menu bar before the property date, day, and time.
