Configure - Set up front office and reservations - Set up food and beverage - Build roles and approvals ### 3. Extend - Add purchasing and stores - Add housekeeping and maintenance and finance and reporting - Connect property management system Go-Live ## Phase 4 and Timing Phase 4, go live: migrate and reconcile outlets and menus and suppliers and stores, train each role and support the first weeks.
