How to Have M3 Carry Over F&B Revenue from a POS

If your property wishes to enter F&B revenue from your POS into Stayntouch PMS and have M3 carry the F&B revenue over, you'll need to take the nightly reports from the POS and post them as lump sum amount (e.g., Food $X, Beverage $X, etc.) on a monthly front desk account each night, so the data will be included in M3 exports. Some things to consider, however, are as follows:

You may need to create F&B payment types (e.g., Outlet American Express), and these will show as payment options in Stayntouch PMS, but they should only be used to settle house accounts during End of Day.
The charge codes used for "room charges" from the POS should be considered non-revenue in the back office system, as the revenue will be captured in the nightly totals in the house accounts.
The payment method/tender type "room charges" from the POS, which needs to be created in Stayntouch PMS to settle the house account, also needs to be considered non-revenue in the back office system, as this is a place holder for the actual payment methods guests will use to settle their room folios (i.e., cash, American Express, etc.).
