### 2. View Guest

* **Purpose**: Search for and view existing guest details.

### 3. Payments (Guest Charges Summary)

* **Purpose**: Provides a summary of any due or outstanding payments for any guest with a balance not equal to zero.
* **Features**:
  * This section includes columns for the guest's name, booking amount, payment amount, and total amount due
  * A negative total means there’s an outstanding balance
  * A positive total indicates overpayment/credit

## Tips

* Use the phone number as a unique identifier to reduce duplicates
* Add a short note when you update contact info (e.g., “new email 02/14”)

## Troubleshooting

* Can’t find a guest: try phone number, then name; check spelling
* Duplicate detected: keep the most complete profile and update linked bookings
