Booking Report

Booking Report

The Booking Report gives you a detailed record of every booking made in your business — including services, packages, products, memberships, employees involved, payment details, sales breakdown, and outstanding balances. It's one of the most used reports for auditing, analysis, and daily operations.

What You Can Track in the Booking Report

This report helps you:

  • View all customer bookings on one screen

  • Check what services, products, or packages were billed

  • See who handled the booking (manager, employee)

  • Verify payment method, wallet usage, and discounts

  • Track tax, total sales, and outstanding amounts

It’s helpful for reviewing daily billing activity, exporting for accounting, or auditing specific customer transactions.


How to Access the Booking Report

To open the Booking Report:

  1. Go to the Reports section from your Zylu menu.

  2. Select Booking from the report list

You can filter the data by date range, employee, manager, or other filters depending on what you're analyzing.

How to Download the Report

  • Tap the download icon at the bottom right of the screen

  • Choose to export the file as a CSV or PDF

CSV is best if you want to open it in Excel or Google Sheets for detailed analysis. PDF is ideal for sharing summaries with your team.

Booking Report – Calculation Guide

Each booking in Zylu generates multiple financial values — from pre-discount prices to final totals. Here's a breakdown of what each term means and how it's calculated.


1. Pre-discount Sales

The total price of all items in the booking before any discount is applied.

Formula:
Pre-discount Sales = Sum of item prices (services, products, packages, memberships)
This is the original MRP value.


2. Discount

The total discount applied to the booking. This includes any manual discounts, membership discounts, or promotional discounts.

Formula:
Discount = Pre-discount Sales - Net Sales (before tax)


3. Net Sales

This is the amount after applying discounts, but before tax.

Formula:
Net Sales = Pre-discount Sales - Discount


4. Tax

The tax amount applied on top of net sales (based on your tax settings in Zylu, like GST).

Formula:
Tax = (Net Sales × Applicable Tax Rate)

For example, if Net Sales = ₹1,000 and GST = 18%,
Tax = ₹1,000 × 0.18 = ₹180


5. Total Sales

The final bill amount the customer needs to pay, including tax.

Formula:
Total Sales = Net Sales + Tax


6. Wallet Redemption

The amount the customer used from their wallet balance to pay for the booking.


7. Wallet Paid Amount

The total paid using wallet (if wallet balance was used at all).

Notes
Note: In many cases, Wallet Paid Amount = Wallet Redemption.


8. Payment Source

The mode of payment used for the remaining amount after wallet usage (Cash, Card, UPI, Pay Later, Online, etc.).

In some cases, bookings may have split payments (e.g., part wallet, part card).


9. Outstanding Amount

The unpaid balance remaining from the booking. This is the amount the customer still owes.

Formula:
Outstanding = Total Sales - Total Amount Paid

If the customer pays only part of the total, this field will show the pending amount.


10. Tips

If tips were added in the booking, they’ll appear in the Tips Report separately, but may be visible in the invoice summary.


Example Calculation

FieldValue
Pre-discount Sales₹2,000
Discount₹200
Net Sales₹1,800
Tax (18%)₹324
Total Sales₹2,124
Wallet Paid₹500
Remaining Paid via Card₹1,500
Outstanding Amount₹124
In this example, the customer paid ₹500 from wallet and ₹1,500 via card, but still owes ₹124.
