Charges and line items

Charges reach the folio from the booking's Calculation tab. Each row reads the same way:

Column	What it shows
Text	The description, e.g. "Deluxe Bungalow, 5 nights". A guest name appears underneath when the charge is billed to one specific guest.
Amount	The quantity — nights, items, or people.
Single price	The unit price (per night, per item). Read-only.
Sum	The line total for the portion on this folio.

The kinds of charge you will see:

Charge type	Where it comes from
Room / cabin nights	The room booked and its nightly price.
Supplements / board	Meal plans and add-ons (see Master Data — Commerce).
Products / extras	Items sold against the booking (equipment, courses, gifts).
Transfers	Airport or boat transfers billed to the booking.
Specials	Package or promotional lines.
Discounts / commission	Reductions, shown as a negative amount (amber in the catch-all).
Custom / text	Manually added charges or note lines.
Taxes	Not a row — calculated and shown in the totals panel (see below).

Some rows can never be moved onto a folio, because they are not splittable charges: deposits (a payment schedule, not a charge), sub-totals and totals (display only), cancellation fees, and payment rows. They stay on the Calculation tab.

Every charge type, and how it splits

The full picture: the table below lists what is splittable — these charges appear in the catch-all and can go on a folio. The table after it lists what never appears on a folio; those rows stay on the Calculation tab only.

Splittable charge	When it appears	Split by
Room / cabin nights	Every stay — the room and its nightly rate.	Quantity (nights).
Supplements / board	A meal plan or add-on is on the booking.	Quantity (nights or items).
Products / extras	A product is sold against the booking.	Quantity if more than one, otherwise money.
Specials / packages	A package or promotion is applied.	Money.
Transfers	An airport or boat transfer is billed to the booking.	Money.
Custom cost	You add a manual charge on the Calculation tab.	Quantity if more than one, otherwise money.
Text / note with a price	A manual line that carries an amount.	Money.
Discount / commission	A reduction or agency commission (a negative line).	Money (the sign is kept).

Non-splittable row	Why it stays off the folio
Deposit	It is a payment schedule (dated instalments), not a charge.
Sub-total / total	Display only — a running or grand total, not a billable line.
Cancellation fee	Handled by the booking's cancellation flow, not by folios.
Payment row	A payment already recorded, not something to bill.
On-site share	Payable at the property, on the on-site bill (see below).
Free-of-charge share	Free of charge — nothing to bill.

Note: A line with more than one unit (five nights, three dives) splits by quantity: you choose how many units go on the folio. A single-unit or lump-sum line (a discount, a transfer, one product) splits by an exact money amount. Gurita picks the right one for you; you never choose the dimension yourself.

Note: If a charge is split between the prepayment bill and the on-site bill (say two of a room's four guests pay on site), only the prepayment share reaches the catch-all. A folio can never re-bill what the on-site bill or a free-of-charge grant already covers.

What you can and cannot edit

• On a draft folio you can change how much of a charge goes on this card — adjust the Amount with the stepper, or type an exact money amount for lump-sum charges — and you can remove a row. The two fields stay in sync automatically.
• The Single price is always read-only. You decide how much of a charge to bill here, never the rate itself. To change a rate, edit the charge on the Calculation tab.
• On an issued folio every line is frozen. Only payments can still be added.

Field by field, by folio status:

What	Draft	Issued	Void
Line quantity or money portion	Editable	Frozen	Frozen
Single price	Read-only	Read-only	Read-only
Add or remove a line	Yes	No	No
Reorder lines (drag)	Yes	No	No
Name, customers, recipient	Editable	Frozen	Frozen
Payment allocations	Editable	Editable	Read-only

Note: Payment allocations are the one exception. They stay editable on an issued folio, because real payments usually arrive after the invoice is sent (see Payments on the folio).
