Week 8

End Of The Month 

So now that I have done all of the basics I was tasked by my manager to do some end of the month paper work for her and the general manager.  So going into this I was a little nervous because I have never really done paperwork for a company before let alone for a hotel with 2 restaurants and a bakery.  

Most of the end of the month paperwork that I was doing were fairly simple.  I have done inventory paperwork as well as end of the month final numbers for the general manager to review.  Some of the numbers include a weekly count of how many rooms we sold, revenue, rooms picked up, rooms booked for a specific even/wedding and the revenue for that.

Another set of paperwork I did this week was inventory from the bake shop.  This one was fairly simple I had to create an excel data sheet and just plugging in number and getting the total for the purchasing manager.  This sheet basically just shows us how many guests eat the complimentary breakfast with us and how much of the baked goods and coffee guest drink.  

Also, I have done wedding comp'd nights.  So all this does is figure out what wedding couple stayed with us for a comp'd night so our rooms manager can see.  This sheet is really simple I just go into the reservation and plug it into an excel sheet.  

The one that required a little more math and work was the rooms pickup and revenue for weddings.  So we have a sheet of maybe 20-30 pages that we have to go through and go through each wedding of the month and see how many rooms were picked up and what the revenue was and compare it to the original block.  So this one took a little more time than the others.

All the paper work done for the managers that I did were not difficult but it goes to show how much paperwork they have to do and I only saw a little bit of it.
