Information about No Show: During the night a no-show process will be running, usually between 2 and 6 AM.
This process cancels rooms that have not been checked in. If, however, a reservation has a deposit on any folio, a room will not be canceled as a No-Show.
It is therefore important to manage the rooms with a DCI from "yesterday" and decide what needs to be done.
Different scenarios are possible. Refund or check in check out, this is depending on the conditions of the rate code and the related SOP.
