Your housekeeping staff enters status information from telephones in guest/patient rooms or from designated terminals. You can assign up to 10 Housekeeping Status access codes within two different types:

• Room telephone access code type

  Staff members dial up to six access codes that represent room status plus up to six additional digits for items such as maid identification.

• Designated telephone access code type

  Staff members dial up to four access codes that represent room status plus the room extension and then up to six additional digits for items such as maid identification.

Communication Manager notifies PMS when Housekeeping Status information is entered. If the PMS is unavailable, Communication Manager writes this information to a log. The log is accessible at Communication Manager system management terminal, and is sent to the log printer, if administered.
