What is a fee category, and how can I use it?
A fee category in Stayflexi is used to define and apply various fees for room types and items being added to invoices. It allows you to set up different types of fees, such as room type, that will be automatically applied during the booking process.

- From the dropdown menu, select Property Configuration (as shown in Image 1).
- Access the Fee Category Page:
- Click on the “Tax and Fee Categories” section.
- Click on “Fee Categories” to add the fee categories (as shown in Image 2).
- Add a New Fee Category:
- Click on the “Add New Fee Category” button (as shown in Image 2).
- A new form will pop up on the right side.
- Provide a Fee Category Name:
- In the “Fee category name?” field, enter a descriptive name for the fee. For example, you might call it a “Room Booking Fee” or “Entertainment Fee” (as shown in Image 2).
- This will appear in invoices automatically when creating a room reservation.
- Set the Fee Value :
