Night auditing in front office

At the end of the business day, hotels must record and reconcile guest folios and their transactions correctly

The night audit process aims to collate revenue against various revenue heads

Specifically, the night audit process evaluates and closes daily cash flow into and out of the hotel’s account

Night audit is mandatory for hotels of all sizes, categories, and services

The most convenient time to perform night audit is between the late evening and early morning – just after the business day closes

This is the time when most revenue centers and POS outlets at a hotel are closed, making it the ideal time to perform night audit

The Front office Audit is usually referred as Night Audit because hotels generally perform it during the late evening hours
