The room status board

Who this is for: Front Desk, Manager, Owner — requires housekeeping.status.update. Where: Housekeeping → Room Status Board

The board is one tile per room, showing what state the room is in and whether someone is in it. It is the whole Housekeeping module: a supervisor works the floors from it, and the front desk reads the result.

This section uses the default terminology. Your house may have renamed these terms under Settings → Terminology.

Read the board#

Each tile carries the room number and type, an Occupied badge when a stay is in-house on it, and the room's current status:

Status	What it means	Ready for check-in
Dirty	Needs cleaning	No
Clean	Cleaned, not yet checked	Yes
Inspected	Cleaned and verified	Yes
Out of service	Not usable — maintenance, deep clean	No

Clean and Inspected are both ready. The gate the front desk hits is ready, not inspected, so a room your team has finished is sellable before a supervisor has walked it. Inspected records that someone checked; it unlocks nothing that Clean has not already unlocked.

The board shows one property's rooms. Use the property switcher at the top of the sidebar to see another.

Move a room through the lifecycle#

The working rhythm is dirty → clean → inspected.

1. Find the room's tile.
2. Open the status selector on it.
3. Choose the new status.

The tile updates as soon as the server accepts the change, and it persists — there is nothing to save.

หมายเหตุ

The selector offers all four statuses in any order. It is a lifecycle in practice, not a state machine: send a room straight from Inspected back to Dirty when a guest leaves early, or to Out of service the moment something breaks.

Anyone holding housekeeping.status.update can make any of those moves — there is no separate permission for inspecting. The default Front Desk role carries the whole board, which is why a desk agent covering the floors needs no extra grant. Without the permission the board still renders; the selector does not appear.

The board is usable at phone widths, which is where most of its updates are made.

Know what the board does not decide#

Two things change a room's state without anyone touching a tile:

• A check-out drops the room to Dirty. Completing a check-out on Departures & Check-out flips it automatically — there is no manual step, and no way to skip it.
• A room block is a different thing. Blocking a room out of order or out of service on the room rack removes it from availability for a date range, so it cannot be sold or assigned at all. The board's Out of service status is about readiness today. A room can be dirty and unblocked, or clean and blocked; the two answer different questions.

What's next#

• Readiness and the check-in gate — how a status change reaches the front desk, and what it stops
• Check a guest in — the other side of the gate
