About this Product
Hotels, guesthouses, and serviced apartments running on ERPNext quickly hit a wall: ERPNext core is built around sales orders, delivery notes, and invoices, not around a room-nights inventory, a nightly availability calendar, or a guest folio that accumulates charges across a multi-night stay. Front-desk teams end up tracking bookings in spreadsheets, keying room charges into Sales Invoices by hand, and reconciling restaurant, laundry, and spa charges to the right guest after the fact. There is no native concept of an occupancy calendar, a rate plan by season, or a housekeeping status board — so overbookings, missed incidentals, and slow checkouts become routine.
ECOSIRE builds a dedicated Frappe app — a proper hotel_management app with its own module, installed alongside ERPNext on your bench — that models the domain natively. We create DocTypes such as Room Type, Room, Rate Plan, Reservation, Folio, and Housekeeping Task, each with the right link fields, child tables, and naming series. Availability is enforced through server-side validation in hooks.py document events (validate and on_submit) that check date-range overlaps against existing reservations before a booking can be submitted, so double-bookings are blocked at the data layer rather than by front-desk discipline. Rate plans resolve nightly prices by room type, date range, and season, and the folio aggregates every posted charge — room nights, plus cross-department charges pushed from restaurant/POS, laundry, and spa — into a single running balance per guest.
The front desk works from a reservation and booking calendar and a housekeeping status board built as Frappe pages and reports, with client scripts driving quick actions like check-in, check-out, and room-move without leaving the screen. Check-out settles the folio straight into a standard ERPNext Sales Invoice and Payment Entry, so revenue, taxes, and receivables land in your existing accounts with no re-keying. Cross-department charges post to the folio via whitelisted Python methods exposed over the Frappe REST API, letting a restaurant POS, spa terminal, or laundry desk append a line to the right guest folio in real time. A nightly scheduler_events job handles the audit-style routines — rolling forward no-shows, flagging stale in-house folios, and refreshing the availability snapshot.
Everything ships permission-aware: we define role profiles and DocType permissions (Front Desk, Housekeeping, Hotel Manager, Accounts) so staff see only what their role needs, and financial posting stays gated to the right roles. The app is version-targeted to your stack — Frappe/ERPNext v15 or v16 — and delivered as clean, migratable source with fixtures for the custom roles, print formats for the guest folio and registration card, and no manual database surgery required to reinstall.
Because this is build-to-order, nothing is a black-box download. We start from your actual property setup — room types, rate structure, departments, and checkout workflow — confirm scope in writing, then build against it. Typical delivery is one working week from confirmed scope. You get the installable app, a UAT pass on a staging bench, a rollback plan, and a post-go-live support window, plus the full git repository so you (or any Frappe developer) own and can extend the code.
What you get
- Installable source code for your version of the app (a proper Frappe app, `bench get-app`/`bench install-app` ready)
- Installation and configuration on your bench, including room types, rate plans, roles, and print formats
- Technical documentation: DocType model, hooks and doc events, whitelisted API methods, and scheduler jobs
- User guide plus a live training session for front-desk, housekeeping, and accounts staff
- UAT on a staging bench with a documented test pass and an agreed rollback plan before production cutover
- Post-go-live support window for bug fixes and adjustments to the delivered scope
- Full git repository handover so you or any Frappe developer can own and extend the code
- Fixtures and migration scripts so the app reinstalls and upgrades cleanly across environments
Who this is for
Independent hotel or boutique property owner
Runs a single property or small group on ERPNext and needs real room inventory, a booking calendar, and folio billing instead of tracking reservations in spreadsheets and re-keying charges into Sales Invoices.
Front-desk and reservations manager
Lives in the daily arrivals/departures view. Needs fast check-in/check-out, room moves, an availability calendar that prevents overbookings, and a guest folio that shows a correct running balance at any moment.
Serviced-apartment or guesthouse operator
Manages longer stays and recurring charges across units and needs rate plans by season plus cross-department incidentals (laundry, cleaning, extras) rolled into one guest bill that settles into ERPNext accounts.
Finance / accounts controller
Wants every room night and incidental to flow into standard ERPNext Sales Invoices and Payment Entries with correct tax and receivables, and role-based permissions so only accounts can post and reconcile.
How Hotel & Hospitality Management for ERPNext Compares
| Criterion | ECOSIRE | Custom Build | Competitor | ERPNext Native |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Room & folio data model | Native DocTypes for rooms, rate plans, reservations, and folios | You design and build every DocType from scratch | Prebuilt but fixed schema you cannot reshape | No room or folio concept — only orders and invoices |
| Overbooking prevention | Server-side date-overlap validation in doc events | Depends entirely on what you remember to code | Varies; often calendar-only, not enforced in data | None — nothing stops overlapping bookings |
| Cross-department charges | Whitelisted REST API posts POS/laundry/spa to the folio | Build every integration point yourself | Limited or hard-coded to the vendor's own POS | Manual line entry on separate invoices |
| Accounting integration | Checkout settles into native Sales Invoice + Payment Entry | You wire the posting logic and test it | Sometimes a separate billing silo needing sync | Standard invoicing, but no folio-to-invoice flow |
| Fit to your property | Built to your rooms, rates, and checkout workflow | Fully bespoke, at full bespoke cost and timeline | You adapt your operation to the app's assumptions | Generic ERP, no hospitality workflow at all |
| Version & upgrades | Targeted for v15/v16, fixtures, clean `bench migrate` | Upgrade safety is your responsibility | Upgrade cadence set by the vendor, not you | Upgrades fine, but no hospitality features exist |
| Code ownership | Full git repository handover — you own it | You own it because you built it | Closed or license-locked; limited access | N/A — nothing custom delivered |
| Support model | Post-go-live support window + optional ongoing | Self-support or hire a developer | Vendor support tiers, generic to all customers | General ERPNext support, no hospitality expertise |
Frequently Asked Questions about Hotel & Hospitality Management
Is this a ready-to-download app from the Frappe marketplace?
No. This is build-to-order. ECOSIRE builds the app against your actual property setup — room types, rate structure, departments, and checkout workflow — then installs and supports it. There is no instant download; you get source code and a git repository handover for your specific build.
How long does delivery take?
Typical delivery is one working week from confirmed scope. Once we agree in writing on room types, rate plans, cross-department charges, and the checkout workflow, we build against that scope, run UAT on a staging bench, and schedule your production cutover. Larger multi-property scopes may run longer and we will say so up front.
Which ERPNext versions do you support?
We target and test against Frappe/ERPNext v15 and v16. We build a proper Frappe app that installs alongside your existing ERPNext, uses standard DocTypes, `hooks.py` doc events, whitelisted API methods, and scheduler events, and migrates via `bench migrate` — so it stays upgrade-friendly rather than patching core.
How do restaurant, laundry, and spa charges reach the guest bill?
Cross-department charges post to the guest folio through whitelisted Python methods exposed over the Frappe REST API. A restaurant POS, spa terminal, or laundry desk appends a charge line to the correct guest's folio in real time, and it aggregates into the running balance and the final check-out invoice.
Does it integrate with ERPNext accounting or run separately?
It integrates natively. Check-out settles the folio into a standard ERPNext Sales Invoice and Payment Entry, so room revenue, taxes, and receivables land in your existing chart of accounts. There is no separate billing silo and no manual re-keying.
What about support and updates after go-live?
Every build includes a post-go-live support window for bug fixes and adjustments within the delivered scope. Because you receive the full git repository, you or any Frappe developer can maintain and extend it afterward. We also offer ongoing support and enhancement engagements if you would rather we keep evolving it.
How do you prevent double-bookings?
Availability is enforced server-side. Before a reservation can be submitted, `validate`/`on_submit` doc events in `hooks.py` check the requested date range against existing reservations for that room type, so overlaps are rejected at the data layer rather than relying on front-desk vigilance.
