Help / Proposals and the client portal
Price a trip with price lines
Set your default markup and fees, add price lines for each booking, and read the totals your client will see.
Steps
- Open the trip's Proposal tab.
- Under "Trip defaults", set "Default markup %", "Planning fee ($)" and "Trip commission fee ($)". Choose "Save defaults".
- Under "Price lines", choose "Add line".
- Pick a Type: Booking, Add-on or Adjustment (discount).
- For a booking or add-on, enter the Item (required), Supplier, Conf #, and Cost ($). Leave "Markup % (blank = trip default)" empty to use your default. Optionally add Expected commission ($), Received commission ($) and Expected commission date.
- Tick "Booked" once the supplier booking is confirmed. Leave "Markup eligible" on unless this line carries no markup.
- Choose "Add line". Use Edit or Remove on a row later.
- Check the "Totals" block: Cost, Markup, Fees, Adjustments and Total.
What you will see
- Sell price is cost plus markup, or just cost if the line is not markup eligible. Cancelled lines count as zero.
- Total = the sum of sell prices, plus adjustments, the planning fee and the trip commission fee.
- Your client sees only sell prices. Cost, markup, commission, supplier and confirmation numbers are never shown on the client page.
- For an adjustment, enter a negative amount to give a discount.
Common problems
"Enter dollars with at most 2 decimals, e.g. 1234.56."
Use plain dollars; a $ sign and commas are fine. Negative amounts are only allowed on adjustments.
"That amount is too large."
Amounts are capped at 2,000,000,000 minor units (cents, for US dollars).
A trip in another currency.
A trip has one currency. Totals in different currencies are never added together.
Do I have to price before publishing?
No. Publishing does not require price lines or an itinerary.
