Overview
The Daybook is a daily financial reconciliation report in Amenitiz. It shows what you invoiced and how your guests paid for a given day or period — broken down by service category (rooms, city taxes, extras) and by payment method (AmenitizPay, Stripe, cash, etc.).
It answers: "For this day or period, what did I invoice, and how did it get paid?"
📌 Note
The Daybook is only available on plans that include invoicing. If you don't see it in your sidebar, your plan likely doesn't include it.
Types of views
Per invoices
Shows every invoice issued in the selected day or period. Each row includes:
Booking source (direct, OTA)
Booking and invoice numbers
Client name and invoice date
Amounts invoiced by service category: Room, City Tax, Miscellaneous (plus any custom categories you use)
Payments broken down by method (AmenitizPay, Stripe, Cash, etc.)
Deposits (paid before the guest's departure)
Receivables (still unpaid, or paid after departure)
A total row at the bottom summarising the whole period
Supports both a single day and a custom date range.
Per services
A single-day view with month-to-date totals. Groups revenue by service, with VAT breakdowns for the selected day and for the entire month. Useful for reconciling daily revenue against month-end accounting.
