An incidental folio is an independent hotel billing statement that itemizes charges for services, meals, and other extras, separate from room charges.
Path: Front Office > Search > Open the Reservation > Select Guest Account in the options situated on the right side.

1. Select "Room/Tax" as the A Folio type.
The selection between "ALL" and "Room & Tax" as the A Folio type doesn't affect manual postings. It primarily influences automatic charge postings and doesn't prohibit manual incidental charges on the room & tax folio or room & tax charges on the incidental folio.

2. Then select "Incidental" as the B Folio type.



3. And that is all that needs to be done.
If you have incidental authorization setup at check-in, the incidental amount will not be requested on Folio A but will be on Folio B.
Any automatic posting will divert room & tax to folio A and any other charge to folio B. But any manual posting of any charge will be possible on any of the folios.
