Handle Multiple Reservations Efficiently
High-Volume Tip
Use Table View and the search box to process guests faster during busy periods.
Streamliner processes reservations one at a time for accuracy. Use these workflows to handle groups and busy check-in periods efficiently.
| Task | Best Approach |
|---|---|
| Group room assignments | Pre-assign in PMS, then confirm individually |
| Tour bus arrival | Use rooming list and process by room number |
| Conference check-in | Set up dedicated desk, work alphabetically |
| Bulk status changes | Make changes in PMS, let them sync |
Efficient Check-In Workflow
Morning Preparation
- Open Operations View → Check-ins early
- Switch to Table View for a compact overview
- Sort by arrival time or room number
- Note VIP guests and special requests
Processing Tips
- Search first: Type guest name or room number instead of scrolling
- Pre-assigned rooms: Handle these first (faster)
- Problems separately: Flag issues and return to them after the rush
- Auto-assign: Use this when available to let the system pick a matching room
Handling Group Bookings
Before the Group Arrives
- Set up the group block in your PMS
- Pre-assign rooms in PMS
- Print or download a rooming list
- Wait for sync to Streamliner
During Group Check-In
- Set up a dedicated check-in area
- Check in the group leader first
- Work through the rooming list room-by-room
- Hand out keys in order
- Track completion on your list
info
Group reservations are managed in your PMS. Changes sync automatically to Streamliner.
Efficient Check-Out Workflow
- Open Operations View → Check-outs in the morning
- Use Table View to see all departures at once
- Ask guests for room number (faster than name lookup)
- Use search to find quickly
- Click Check Out and confirm
tip
Coordinate with housekeeping - they see room status updates immediately when you check guests out.
View and Search Tips
When to Use Each View
| View | Best For |
|---|---|
| Card View | Seeing guest photos, detailed info, training |
| Table View | High volume, quick scanning, sorting |
Search Shortcuts
- Partial names work: "John" finds "John Smith"
- Room numbers are fastest
- Confirmation numbers work for specific lookups
What the System Does NOT Support
The current system does not support:
- ❌ Selecting multiple reservations at once
- ❌ Bulk check-in with a single click
- ❌ Mass room assignments
- ❌ Bulk message sending
Workaround
For true bulk operations:
- Make changes in your PMS (Cloudbeds, Opera, Mews)
- Wait for changes to sync (usually seconds)
- Confirm in Streamliner individually
