Housekeeping and the front desk reading the same board
FluxPMS housekeeping tracks the state of every room and shares it with the front desk in real time. When a room is marked clean it becomes sellable; when a guest checks out it becomes dirty and appears on the cleaning list. There is no separate housekeeping app to reconcile, which is what stops the desk selling a room that has not been made up.

The room states and what they mean
A room is available, occupied, dirty, being cleaned, inspected, or under maintenance. Those states are shared by the front desk, housekeeping and your booking engine, so all three agree at all times.
Assigning and tracking cleaning
Checkouts create cleaning work automatically. Tasks can be assigned to a person, prioritised by the next arrival, and marked done from the floor. The desk sees a room become sellable the moment it is marked clean.
Why shared status prevents bad check-ins
The expensive failure in a small hotel is handing a key to a guest for a room that has not been made up. That happens when housekeeping status lives in a notebook and availability lives in a computer.
Here they are the same record. A room that is dirty is not offered to the next arrival, and nobody has to remember to tell anyone.
Working from a phone on the floor
Housekeeping staff work standing up, on a phone, often with one hand. The screens are built for that: large touch targets, few taps, and status changes that take one press.
