Hotel laundry is a quantity problem. Towels, bedsheets and pillow covers leave in one batch and return in another. Without a batch-level record, small differences quickly become disputes.

Dispatch first, receive second

SmartVisit’s laundry workflow records what was sent to the vendor, then records what came back. The batch can remain Partial until the return is complete.

Missing and extra items need different signals

Items below the sent quantity are surfaced as missing, while returns above the sent quantity are identified as extra. This keeps the reconciliation easy to read during settlement.

Simple reconciliation:quantity sent → quantity returned → difference → vendor cost.

Why date-filtered reports matter

When the hotel can filter history and export the records, monthly vendor settlement becomes a reporting task instead of a counting exercise.
