Semper Integration

Updated

With our Semper PMS integration, you can easily post room charges into Semper.

  • Our Semper integration is currently in Beta so it's important to ensure that you check the posts coming from ChiDesk on a daily basis to ensure they are as expected. This should include checking the amounts, revenue groups and tax amounts.

Room Charges

Once an invoice is saved in Semper, instead of recording a receipt, users can choose to Post the charge against a reservation in Semper. The customer can be identified via their room number.

  1. Create a new Invoice.
  2. Click Save.
  3. Browse to the Details tab and enter a room number, name or guest name into the Room field.
  4. Click Post.
  5. A new window will appear displaying any guests found in Semper.
  6. Click the required name to post the room charges to this account.
  • If you need to adjust an invoice that has already been posted to Semper, simply click the Unpost button. This will reverse the posted charges by posting a negative value for each charge against the guest account in Semper.

Getting Started

In order to communicate with Semper you will need to request your public IP address and port and from Semper.

ChiDesk Setup

Open ChiDesk and navigate to Settings - Hotel Integration.

  1. Set the Type to Semper.
  2. In the Address field enter the IP address and port received from Semper in the format: 'http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:yyyy'
  3. None of other fields need to be filled in for this integration.
  4. Click Save to save your changes.

Once all the above is done you can see if the connection is working by saving your changes and then following the steps listed under the Room Charges section to create a new Invoice and attempt to post it.
