Tour-Operator Reservation System for Tailor-made Holidays
Contact

Documentation: Holiday Screen - Prefs Tab

There are a number of configuration settings  (Preferences or Prefs) that are given defaults at the tour operator level, but which may be altered for each individual holiday. When a new holiday is created it is given a copy of the current tour operator defaults for those preferences. The prefs table displays and allows editing of the Preference settings for the specific holiday.

  • agent_vat_rate : VAT rate to apply to agent commission
  • base_fee : An initial charge for each Pax must pay - this charge is created  as an ADJ service with Fee Type BAS for each Pax Group in the itinerary - also see global_charge_pc for a percentage based fee.
  • dflt_trans_fee_pc : Default transaction fee percentage - used when indicating expected fee's on Client Documentation
  • deposit_pc : Amount expected for deposit as a percentage of the holiday sell. If this is set, deposit_pp must be 0 or not set.
  • deposit_pp : Amount expected for deposit, per person. If this is set, deposit_pc must be 0 or not set.
  • full_pay_days : Number of days before departure that full payment is due from client
  • global_charge_pc : An overall percentage of the holiday value (including values calculated from base_fee and markup_pc) to add on to both buy and sell. This could be used to approximately cover the transaction fee charged for use of the Reservation System.
  • home_airport : default origin airport for automatically created flights; it is normally possible to override this within the created flight service.
  • inc_flt_in_dep : Enter TRUE to increase the expected deposit from the amount in deposit_pp by the total sell price of all flights within the itinerary; FALSE to charge the value in deposit_pp only.
  • markup_tax : Enter TRUE to add markup to the tax part of any services, FALSE to not markup tax.
  • markup_pc_agt : An overall percentage to add on to sell price after totalling all service costs, only for agent holidays. This can be used as well as, or instead of, the markup percentages in each service cost entry (which do not have an agent specific variation).
  • markup_pc_dir : An overall percentage to add on to sell price after totalling all service costs, only for non-agent holidays. This can be used as well as, or instead of, the markup percentages in each service cost entry.
  • request_skip_supplier : Do not generate requests for suppliers/hotels whose id's are in this comma separated list.
  • round_sell : Selects the calculation done to "tidy" the Sell price for each Pax Group (prior to adding Transaction Fees) 
    • none : No rounding (ie will show decimal part such as pence)
    • trunc : Lose any decimal part
    • one_up : to next (pound)
    • even_up : to next even number - if you have e.g. two pax in a group this will give each pax a round value
    • five_up : to next five (pounds)
    • ten_up : to next ten (pounds)
  • sup_buy_valid : e.g. 2,4: Supplier payment entry in Ledger must be between expected Buy value less 2 / plus 4
