Adding Manual Receipts

3 min read

Many venues track guest spend in external apps or spreadsheets while still relying on TablelistPro as the source of truth for CRM. Manual receipts let you backfill that history so customer profiles stay accurate — without creating fake reservations.

Use receipts to:

  • Import or reconcile spend from another system
  • Record legacy POS or off-platform visits that never synced
  • Bump lifetime spend when you only care about dollars, not visit count
  • Add a real visit when the guest actually came in but there is no Tablelist booking

Open the sidebar, click Customers, open a profile, then scroll to Receipts.

The Customer receipts callout explains how entries affect stats:

  • Total spend — The amount is always added to lifetime spend.
  • Visits & dates — Included only when Count as visit is enabled.
  • Spend by type — Counts toward reservation, ticket, or guest-list breakdowns based on Order Type.

Spend only vs. count as a visit

Each receipt has a Count as visit checkbox. Use it to match what actually happened:

GoalCount as visit
Update spend totals only (threshold tracking, imports, comps logged elsewhere)Leave unchecked
Record a real night out — increases visit count and can update Last VisitChecked

Example: a $20,000 event logged from a spreadsheet might count toward Total Spend but not as a visit if it was aggregated data, not a single check-in. A guest who dined in but has no reservation in Tablelist would use Count as visit so Total Visits and Last Visit stay correct.


Add a receipt

  1. On the customer profile, in Receipts, click Add Receipt.
  2. Complete the form and click Save.
