Answers to our questions...

-       What is the current process procedure?
o   For what ?
-       How are bookings currently taken?
o   Reception fill in booking forms, update the booking tables which come from Administration.  Fill in Amended Booking Forms - both sets of forms go to Administration where they are computerized. Reception does have access to a list of members which includes membership type, whether they are part of a corporate booking etc.  This information is generated from Marketing Department via the Membership co-coordinator and Finance who have the list of corporate accounts and people who can use them. 
-       How is the information currently stored?
o   Do you mean the booking info? If so this is stored in a box under the desk at reception and taken to admin at the beginning of every day.
-       How are current payments taken? Do you and how would you like them changed?
o   Invoices are sent to customers through the finance department.  When we take payment at the desk we create a till receipt one copy of which goes to the customer.  The till roll goes to Finance at the end of the day.
o   We also record the payment in the Payment Journal which also goes to Finance at the end of the day.
