Clean data

TingHotel does not do accounting, payroll or issue invoices on the hotel's behalf. Its job is to record correctly at the source so that specialist software can use the data as soon as it receives it.

What we do and what we do not

TingHotel is an operations tool. Finance, HR and tax work is left to specialist software.

TingHotel does

  • Record every operation where it happens
  • Classify revenue by transaction code, tax rate and accounting account
  • Actual timekeeping, working hours classified according to the law
  • Stock receipts, issues and balances by quantity and value
  • Business, housekeeping, engineering and stores metrics
  • Export every operational table to Excel or CSV

Left to specialist software

  • Journal entries, general ledger, financial statements
  • Payroll, insurance, personal income tax
  • Issuing electronic invoices (except Enterprise, by project)
  • Tax declaration and settlement
  • Replacing the accounting or HR software the hotel already uses
Principle

What clean data means

Clean does not mean pretty in a report. Clean means recorded once, in the right place, in the right category, with a source and without silent edits.

Record where it happens

The front desk records when taking payment, housekeeping when cleaning and stores when issuing. There is no step of gathering notebooks at the end of the day and typing them in again.

Classify at the moment of recording

Each entry goes through a transaction code the hotel defines, which already carries the revenue group, tax group and accounting account for mapping.

Labelled by data source

Working time states whether it was measured by an RCU card insertion, inferred from cards and tasks, or declared by the employee. Readers know how far each figure can be trusted.

Corrections need a reason, nothing is deleted

Correcting timekeeping hours and cancelling or adjusting a charge both require a reason. History is kept, and a report flags people who cancel unusually often.

Period close with locking

The night audit closes the business date, department heads close timekeeping and stores close the period. Changing anything that is locked requires reopening with a reason.

Business date separate from calendar date

The business date changes only when the night audit has finished, not at midnight. Revenue lands on the correct day, including night shifts.

Outputs

Six outgoing data flows

Each flow states where it goes and from which plan it is available.

Example

Where one stay goes through

No one has to re-enter anything. Each step produces exactly the data the next department needs.

  1. 1

    Guest checks in

    The stay is linked to a rate plan that includes breakfast. The room sends the occupied status down to the RCU.

  2. 2

    Night audit

    Runs automatically at the time the hotel sets. Room charge and breakfast are posted as two revenue lines, and the daily metrics are captured.

  3. 3

    Minibar use

    Housekeeping records it during the room check. The folio gets the charge, stores automatically get an issue voucher and the cost is already available.

  4. 4

    Check-out

    The guest asks for a company invoice. The folio goes into the invoice queue with the full buyer details.

  5. 5

    Accounting receives

    Export revenue by transaction code and tax rate. Issue the invoice in separate software and record the invoice number back on the folio.

Add-on on any plan

Reason

Why we do not do it for you

Regulations keep changing

Tax, invoicing and payroll change with each new regulation. Specialist software updates quickly and takes responsibility for that part.

Hotels already have their own software

Accounting and HR rarely switch software. Connecting to what they use is faster than making everyone learn again.

Clean at the source means fewer errors

Every re-entry is another chance for an error. Record correctly once where it happens and every party uses the same set of figures.

Owners keep the choice

If you change accounting or HR software, the data still comes out in the same structure. You are not locked in to one provider.

For accounting and HR

Frequently asked questions

Can TingHotel export to MISA?
Timesheets are exported in the MISA AMIS format by accounting staff code. Revenue is exported by transaction code, each carrying its accounting account, so accountants can enter it into the software they already use.
Does TingHotel issue electronic invoices?
Essential and Pro record the invoicing information and place it in a queue for accounting to issue in separate software. A direct connection to an electronic invoice provider is done by project in the Enterprise plan.
Does TingHotel calculate payroll?
No. TingHotel exports actual working hours classified according to the law: regular, overtime, night, weekly rest and public holidays. The HR department calculates pay and insurance in its own software.
Can closed figures be edited?
Yes, but the period must be reopened and a reason recorded. Every edit is kept in the history and nothing is overwritten.
Does the free plan export data?
Yes, for the room operations part: export the room status table and the room access log by card and door, and print vouchers and lists to PDF.
What happens to the data if we stop using TingHotel?
Operational data can be exported to Excel or CSV table by table, so the hotel can archive it or move it to another system.
