The problem usually occurs when the charges on not on the initial invoice but billed after you leave. For example if a guest decided to consume something from the snack or mini-bar the morning they are checking out, it won't be reflected in the bill when checking out. Once the mini-bar is checked later that morning, the hotel then places the charges on the invoice or on a separate invoice.
