Financial List

The financial join is indicated by the alternating stripes in the section table (and not the room join arrows).

Example 1:

In the example above, Mr. Alan Banks and Mrs. Barbara Banks are joined together in the same room, but are joined separately financially.

Example 2:

If you have passengers who are joined financially but share a room with different passengers, in the Financial List view, the room join arrows will be broken.

In the example above, Mr David Davis, Mr. Robert Smith, Mr. George Baker, and Mr. Josh Freeman are joined financially because they share the same stripe in the table. Their rooming list arrow is broken though because they are sharing a room with a different passenger who is not part of the financial join.

The room join arrows are the same as the rooming list view. Except when passengers are joined financially but share a room with different passengers. In this case, in the Financial List view, the room join arrows are broken.
