Learn Containn by role.
Each path puts the documentation in the order you’ll need it: the accountant, the general manager, the night auditor, the front desk and the owner.

Where to find what you used before.
If you’re not sure where to start
The accountant’s path covers the full cycle. And if you’d rather we walk you through it, schedule a demo.
Start with yesterday.
If your hotel already signs off on its night audit, Containn can post yesterday today. The chart of accounts is set up in one step, the transaction code mapping is done once, and from then on every signed-off day becomes a journal entry.
