- Departures – The guest who are scheduled to check out today.
- Cancellations – The reservations that the guests have canceled.
- On hold—Reservations that have not yet been finalized and may require further steps before they are confirmed or canceled.
- No-show – Indicates reservations where the guest did not arrive on the check-in date and staff had marked them manually No- show.
- Magic link – It is a unique feature that sends a URL to the guest via email, whatsapp or SMS allowing them to perform specific actions such as self-check-in,request for early check-in and late check-out as well as access add-ons.
