Important Note
If you are using IoT lock integration, the key’s active period is based on the check-in time, and is not affected by the Estimated Time of Arrival.
If you want the key’s validity to align with the entered expected arrival time, go to [Reservation Details] → [Room Info … More Options] → [Edit] → [Check-in Time] and make the necessary changes.
Until the check-in time, guests can change their Estimated Time of Arrival themselves via the pre-check-in URL.
In the PMS, the Estimated Time of ArrivaL cannot be edited directly. However, if the guest has already completed pre-check-in, they can still modify the expected arrival time themselves using the pre-check-in URL.
How to use
You can adjust staff assignments and cleaning schedules based on the Estimated Time of Arrival.
By checking the [Estimated Time of Arrival] and modifying the [Check-in Time] under [Reservation Details], you can continue to use the “Pre-check-in” function until that time. You can also adjust the activation time of IoT locks accordingly.
Guests can freely change their expected arrival time up until the set check-in time.
Adding a note in the guest form, such as:
“To change your expected arrival time, tap the Pre-check-in button, update the time, and complete the process again. Your previously entered information will be saved.”
This can reduce the need for back-and-forth communication with guests about arrival times. (Once entered, the information remains saved, so there’s no need for re-entry.)
