JNR Hotels replaced fragmented desktop systems with Inn-Flow to gain real-time visibility, streamline accounting, and support a rapidly growing portfolio of 15 hotels. Month-end close times dropped dramatically, and teams across the company now access the data they need without delays.
Why it matters: JNR’s growth exposed the limits of off-the-shelf software. Their team struggled with slow, manual reporting and little insight into performance until weeks after month end. Inn-Flow gave them accurate, timely data that supports faster decisions and stronger financial management across every property.
  • Inn-Flow automates PMS activity, streamlines accounting, and provides USALI-aligned reporting, giving both corporate leaders and hotel managers immediate access to financials and labor data. JNR now closes the books in three weeks instead of six and identifies labor inefficiencies earlier, improving productivity throughout the portfolio.

Top 3 Core Objectives: JNR wasn’t just looking to replace QuickBooks. They needed a hotel-specific system that could scale with their growing portfolio and fix the delays, inefficiencies, and lack of visibility holding their team back.
  • Standardize Accounting: JNR wanted financial reporting that aligned with the Uniform System of Accounts and eliminated the custom, inconsistent reports produced by their desktop software. They needed every property operating from the same structure with fast, accurate access to financials.

  • Improve Data Access: The team needed real-time visibility into revenue and expenses instead of waiting for emailed statements or delayed reporting. Both corporate staff and general managers needed immediate access to the same data to make timely operational and financial decisions.

  • Streamline Processes: JNR aimed to eliminate manual workflows ranging from daily PMS entries to timekeeping, labor oversight, and vendor payments. They wanted automated processes that reduced errors, saved time, and supported a faster month-end close.
