Visual One PMS by Agilysys
|
 Visual One PMS by Agilysys is a reliable property management solution that is installed in hotels ranging from 50 rooms and up. Though the software is perfect for resorts and corporate hotels, Visual One PMS is especially powerful in a conference center environment when used in conjunction with the Visual One Sales & Catering System by Agilysys. The hotel and sales & catering systems are not just interfaced; they're fully-integrated because they use the same database, providing real-time information exchanges between your front office and sales offices. By adding the Visual One Restaurant System by Agilysys and the Visual One Accounting System by Agilysys, your hotel will own the most powerful management tool in the Hospitality Industry. Operating under Microsoft Windows NT with a Microsoft SQL Server database, the Visual One Hotel System takes advantage of the latest Microsoft products such as Word (for mailing lists), Excel (for creating graphs and charts) and even Microsoft Fax for sending reservation confirmations to guests. All of Visual One's data is available to you, the user, for creating customized reports using, for example, Seagate's Crystal Report Writer.
 The Visual One Accounting system by Agilysys includes accounts receivable, accounts payable, general ledger, purchase order, condominium, club modules, and bank statement (check) reconciliation. Unlike off-the-shelf or "horizontal" accounting software, Visual One Accounting was developed specifically for the "vertical" hospitality industry. For example, you can define your financial statements in Visual One General Ledger by Agilysys to include statistical reporting such as maid-cost-per-room or number of covers in your restaurants. And, Accounts Payable can track guest activity costs from third-party vendors for billing reconciliation. Or, within Accounts Receivable, you can drill-down to the details of a guest folio or restaurant check. Of course, all revenues from Visual One PMS, Sales & Catering, Restaurant, Spa, and Golf are automatically integrated with Visual One Receivables and General Ledger.  The Visual One Club Management system by Agilysys allows for complete membership management within your club or resort. The system provides the ability to define date sensitive membership, food & beverage or “other” fee schedules. Recurring charges of the members’ account balance to their credit card are a snap. Recognizing your guests is of paramount importance to a smooth club operation. That’s why with Visual One’s Club Management system by Agilysys, photos of the members are displayed on the screen when the guest’s membership card is swiped. Additionally, the member’s account information, visit history and account status are displayed. Benefits:
Key Features:
 The Visual One Comp Accounting module from Agilysys ensures that all charges of a pre-determined nature are guest complimentary. The software integrates seamlessly with the Visual One Property Management System (PMS) by Agilysys to track both casino and non-casino guest charges. Staff can code complimentary services at the point of reservation, at check out or at any other time during the guest’s stay and instantly validate the authorization for the comp. If the entry for special billing occurs at the point of check out, staff can simply re-filter the charges to move them from the guest expenses to the special billing folio.Benefits:
 The Visual One Condo Accounting module by Agilysyswas designed to quickly and easily calculate the revenues, expenses and profit sharing between condo owners and the management company, as well as providing a variety of reports. Working in conjunction with the Visual One Accounts Receivable (AR) module by Agilysys, you can access all of the functionality of the AR module, such as direct billing owners for charges they accumulate during their stay and easily charging users other expenses related to owning the condo unit. Along with all of the reports in AR, the user can access a number of reports to easily keep track of charges and credits to the condo owners. The basis for the Condo Accounting module is the automatic calculation of the appropriate commission percentage(s) for the management company for the appropriate revenue post types being shared and then making the entries into an accounting batch in both the general ledger and the accounts receivable ledger to the condo owners. These numbers are automatically calculated during the night audit along with the day's activity. These calculations can also be recalculated at any time for any past date. Along with this automatic breakout of commissioned revenues, a number of reports exist for both the owner and the management company to quickly analyze the profitability of a condo and the various expenses appropriated to the condos. The combination of functionality and reports greatly reduces the time necessary for an accounting staff to calculate, distribute and report the revenues and expenses to condo owners. The Guest eMarketing (GeM) solution is designed to provide advanced functionality for HTML-based guest correspondence, advertising and marketing campaigns, and customer surveys-all with built-in statistical tracking stored for user analysis. Hotel staff members access the GeM solution via the eMarketing server control and set parameters for confirmation emails or marketing campaign blasts based on a schedule preset. The eMarketing internal server control continuously reviews reservations in Visual One PMS that meet user-defined parameters and sends emails accordingly to property clients. An eMarketing external server records hits or views generated by guests opening emails or clicking embedded links. The external server also stores reporting statistics for emails sent out from the property. At all times, eMarketing functions are controlled separately by the eMarketing servers and do not affect the property's internal email server. Key Features of the eMarketing Solution include:
 The Visual One Sales & Catering system by Agilysys includes three, main modules: account management, meeting room management and catering management.

Catering management includes banquet event orders and banquet checks (all custom-designed using Microsoft Word), production reports and much more. Visual One Sales & Catering is especially powerful in a conference center environment when used in conjunction with the Visual One Hotel System by Agilysys. The hotel and sales & catering systems are not just interfaced; they're fully-integrated because they use the same database, providing real-time information exchanges between your front office and sales and catering offices.
