LTS Daily Report
Starting November 1, 2023, South Tyrolean lodging establishments are required to submit the ASTAT report daily. This daily report replaces the previous “monthly report” that was submitted to the LTS. The guest registration with “Portale Allogiati” muststill be completed separately each day.
To ensure that you can implement this change smoothly, we are providing a software update that will be installed automatically. With the update to ASA Version 23.08, the Internet portal account for the new daily report will be created entirely automatically. However, it is important that you now decide how you would like to handle the transition to daily reporting from an organizational standpoint. Here are your options:

1. Complete the monthly report for October by November 1, and then switch to daily reporting:
You can finalize the monthly report on November 1 for October as usual before switching to the daily report. This allows you to properly close out October and ensures that your reports are complete. Once the monthly report is finalized, you can switch to the daily report. From that point on, you must submit this report daily.
2. Immediate transition to daily reporting:
If you wish, you can also switch to daily reporting immediately. This means that, starting from the date of the switch, all check-ins and check-outs will be reported daily. Please note that in this case, you’ll need to retroactively submit the daily reports for the remaining days of October. This will ensure that no data is lost.
If you have any questions about the switch or need assistance, your ASA sales partner will be happy to help. Please don’t hesitate to contact our support team for further information and assistance.
Facilities
The only “setup step” required for the first daily report is to replace the existing account with the new“LTS Daily Report” account in the “Settings” tab under Hotel/Defaults/TV Operations for the respective TV operation.
In this section, the two fields “Rooms (available)” and “Beds (available)” have also been added. These values are calculated automatically based on the entered categories and rooms, but can be manually adjusted and entered here if necessary (though this is not required!).
How is a daily report submitted?
The daily report can be completed each day under Hotel/Recurring Tasks/TV Daily Report.
How is a daily report submitted?
Submit Daily Report
The daily report can be completed each day under Hotel/Recurring Tasks/TV Daily Report.
The "Daily Report Date" field specifies the date for which the report is to be generated. If necessary, the "Occupied Rooms" field can be edited manually (only for reports covering a single day).
Clicking the "Submit Daily Report" button on the right initiates the submission. If there are any daily reports from the previous day that have not yet been sent, a message to that effect will be displayed. Upon successful submission, the corresponding date will be entered in the "Date of Last Daily Report" field.
Tip: The daily report can also be processed using the Daily Check/Closing feature. This allows you to complete the daily report, submit the report to the treasury, and close out payment systems and cash registers—all with a single click.
Report time periods in advance and correct past entries
It is also possible to report longer periods in advance (e.g., for company holidays). To do this, enter the day before reopening in the "Daily Report Date" field. This will transfer the entire period between the two dates (the last daily report and the daily report date).
When transferring data for longer periods, it is not possible to change the number of "occupied rooms. "
If this transfer fails, the date of the last successful report is automatically entered in the "Date of Last Daily Report" field, and the transfer is canceled. If necessary, this allows you to correct any erroneous data and restart the transfer starting from the last day for which data was successfully transferred.
Corrections can also be made to reports from several days ago (subject to limitations and transferable). The transfer always applies from the "Date of the Last Daily Report" to the "Daily Report Date."
Company Holidays: To close out the lodging tax for closed periods or company holidays, the closed period must be entered under Hotel/Settings/Company Holidays. In addition, no check-ins or check-outs may take place during the relevant period. Afterward, the period must be transferred via the daily report, and the lodging tax must be confirmed.
Confirm the residence tax
The daily report replaces the monthly report; nevertheless, the tourist tax must be confirmed on a monthly basis. This is done under Hotel/Recurring Tasks/TV Tourist Tax by clicking the "Confirm Tourist Tax" button .
Clicking the "Confirm Accommodation Fee" button opens the following dialog box.
The system then automatically checks whether the tourist tax in ASA matches the tax calculated in the LTS portal and whether all relevant data for the previous month is available. If there are any discrepancies or errors, a corresponding dialog box will open.
After successfully closing the month, a browser window opens displaying the pagoPA payment request in PDF format. The document is also stored in the ASA-DMS documents.
ATTENTION: If multiple lodging establishments use the same guest registration account (Portale Allogiati) and the same numbering system, the data for all affected establishments must be submitted before the lodging tax is finalized. Otherwise, discrepancies in the number of overnight stays may arise between ASA and LTS.
