Issuing comps against a budget and tracking reinvestment

A comp is a complimentary credit you give a player — free play, food & beverage, lodging, an event ticket. It is off-rail: not a card charge, but a credit drawn against a comp budget.

To issue one: open Comps, pick the player and category, enter the amount, and (optionally) choose the budget it draws against and the host issuing it. If the issuing host's per-comp authority limit is lower than the amount, the module blocks it so authority stays deliberate.

Budgets: create comp budgets per host or department for a period (Budgets tab). Each comp you issue rolls into its budget's actual, and each budget shows a usage bar that turns amber near the limit and red over it.

Folio comps: food & beverage, lodging, and retail comps post an off-rail credit to the guest's folio when the player has an active reservation — the same folio bus Retail and F&B use.

Reinvestment: the core casino-marketing metric is comps as a percent of theoretical win. The Reports tab shows it against your program's target, per host, and property-wide. You can also ask Wally to issue a comp.
