Penahak now runs hotels, restaurants and retail on one ledger.
Penahak
Solution

Hotel, resort & homestay

Reservations through night audit to posted revenue, with restaurant charge-to-room and city-ledger billing included.

What we hear

The problems that bring people to us

Hotels usually choose between a foreign property system that does not understand Nepali tax, and a local system with no real folio or night audit. Penahak gives you the hotel operation and posts it into the same ledger your restaurant and shop use.

Occupancy reports and revenue reports disagree

When the property system keeps its own figures and accounting keeps others, the monthly reconciliation never quite closes and neither number is fully trusted.

Guests get billed twice

A checkout that fails halfway — a gateway timeout, a dropped connection — and a retry creates a second invoice for the same stay.

Company and agent balances go uncollected

City ledger kept on a spreadsheet ages quietly until a corporate account is well past its credit limit.

Restaurant charges never reach the folio

Outlet bills written on paper and carried to reception get lost, mistyped, or applied to the wrong room.

A day on Penahak

One chain of documents, start to finish

Each step below creates or references a real document. Nothing is retyped between them, and every figure at the end traces back to the action that caused it.

Manager checks arrivals, departures, dirty rooms and open folios Morning
Front desk checks in arrivals: KYC, room, deposit, key count Afternoon
Dinner charged to the room; minibar posted by housekeeping Evening
Night audit posts room charges, clears blockers, closes the business date Night
Checkout settles the balance and posts one SalesBill Morning
Company folio ages on the city ledger until settled Ongoing

A starting point, not a fixed bundle. Add or drop modules once we have seen how you operate.

What changes

What you should expect to be different

Not features — outcomes. If these are not true six months after go-live, something has been configured wrongly and we want to hear about it.

  • One folio produces exactly one invoice, however many times checkout is retried
  • Room revenue, tax and service charge post to the ledger the night they are earned
  • City ledger ageing sits in the same receivables figure as every other debtor
  • Housekeeping status genuinely controls what reception can sell
  • The night audit pack shows blockers, waivers and reopen history for review
Reporting

The reports you will live in

Every total drills down to the source document behind it.

  • Occupancy & availability
  • Revenue by room type & rate plan
  • Arrivals & departures
  • City ledger ageing
  • Night audit pack
  • Housekeeping & maintenance status
Compliance

Nepali obligations handled in the core

IRD-ready fiscal invoicing

IRD-approved, with fiscal invoice behaviour in the central SalesBill and POS paths, IRD sync, VAT customer and vendor summaries, and an audit trail built for inspection rather than reconstructed after the fact.

Nepali fiscal year and dates

Bikram Sambat fiscal-year control, business-date close and dual-date handling throughout documents and reports.

Local payment providers

eSewa, Khalti, Fonepay, card, bank, QR and wallet adapters, with verification evidence required before a provider goes live. Cash stays simple: no merchant ID, no callback URL.

English and Nepali

Interface translations and a localisation layer in both the web application and the reporting engine.

Immutable audit trail

Every posting command carries an idempotency key. Corrections go through approved reversal or credit paths; posted truth is never edited in place.

Role-based security

Granular roles and permissions, IP address whitelisting, two-factor authentication, user activity logging, time-based account expiry, and stage-based setup gates that block posting until configuration is safe.

Getting there

How a go-live actually runs

01

Discovery

We map your outlets, books, stock locations and statutory obligations, and agree what go-live means.

02

Configuration

Chart of accounts, tax and bill terms, document numbering, godowns, roles and payment providers, all checked against the setup gates before anything posts.

03

Migration

Masters, opening balances and opening trial imported and reconciled against your closing figures.

04

Training

Role-based sessions for owners, cashiers, front desk, kitchen, storekeepers and accounts, using your own data.

05

Go-live

One full test cycle end to end, then supervised go-live with a support engineer on hand.

06

Aftercare

Ongoing support, statutory updates, new-release rollout and periodic health checks.
