Feature Requests

The new display price feature is great as it allows us to lock the gross price that we want and have this price used in the incoming payment tab without having to manually edit the gross price every time we make a change to a booking. However, I do not see the point of having the display net price if it is also locked. We need to be able to have the total net being automatically updated when we make any booking changes without having the total gross / display price automatically update as well. Very often, when a client is traveling, we may have to update a total net, either because a service was cancelled or added, or the price invoiced to us by a supplier might be different than what we expected, so having the total net still dynamically updated while the display price to the client remains the same would be much more useful.

We want the traveller to see Product name 1 but when we book then we see Product X and Y and Z each have there own price and are booked with different suppliers. If I could build an itinerary and tag it as Package, then add that itinerary to another itinerary and they wopuld all display as a single Postcard to the Travaller but I would still be able to individually book and price and delete items included in the package within the new itinerary. There might be more than one package in an itinerary.

I’d like the ability to filter the Pricing page to show only accommodations (or other specific service types) included in the itinerary. This would help with reviewing accommodation costs separately from other expenses. A filter like the one on the Booking tab would be great to have on the Pricing page.

When an itinerary has been set to 'completed', 'cancelled' or 'not booked' the public link sharing should automatically turn off. When the travel date has passed, the public link sharing should automatically turn off. Ideally, it would also be good to have the option to set an expiry when sending a proposal to a client so that if it is not accepted/confirmed within a period of time from the itinerary creation date (ie. 7 days/14 days/30 days) then the link sharing turns off. That will help to stop customers shopping around our itineraries to other operators and agents.

Some supplier require full payment of the gross value and they then remit our commission back to us. Sometimes on a monthly basis. This means our Supplier payment needs to be for the Gross amount and we need a way to record the receipt of our commission once the payment is received. This way we have an accurate record of outstanding commission payments in Tourwriter. An example of this is Insurance commissions. We sell commission and pay the insurance company full gross rate. On a monthly basis the Insurance company provides a commission remittance payment. Our supplier payment to the insurance company needs to be for the gross amount. Once the remittance has been received the supplier payment balance will be for the Net amount however we have no way to get the Gross value exported to accounting currently and no way to record the Supplier refund (Incoming payment from the insurance company)

When working with different budgets the User would like to have the option to offer alternative products/difference choices that are not included in the total cost (alternate activities as well as upgrade options) When we create itineraries. we work together with the traveler. We like to give them options for certain activities, for different loops... where we invite the travelers to make a choice, or where we just want to show the travelers certain options on a rest day. We want to show different options without it influencing the price of the itinerary Would like to show the client all the excursion options they have for the base itinerary they agreed on and the price for each of these optional excursions so the customers can decide which excursions they want to add on to their based priced itinerary depending on their total budget. Alternative option is usually an upgrade from A to B Optional product is something not included in Total price but promoted with cost separated out so they know they can buy it/include it.

When we have finished to create a rate period, the only way to close the pop up is to click on the button "cancel". Strange. Why not change the text to : Return or Back ?

It would be beneficial to have the option to click a flag or set a tag for each itinerary that would be visible from the itineraries page to help navigate the priority of different leads. Examples could be hot, warm, cold.

When generating vouchers from the system, auto-convert them to jpeg so they can be added to itinerary
