Introduction

Discussion
A Price Chart is where all the prices, surcharges and discounts are created. The purchase prices are created in the Purchase price chart and the Sales prices are created in the Sales price chart.

 

 

In the One Instance concept P&P will be responsible for creating Purchase Price charts and POS will be responsible for creating Sales Price charts.

 

 


Create a Purchase Price Chart

Discussion
To complete the setup of the Blue Horizons Garden Resort we need to create and attach the purchase and sales prices. Once the purchase and sales prices have been set up a booking for this hotel can be made through the booking system.

  1. Select Travel>Purchasing Prices. Alternatively select the icon.
  2. Select Production&Procurement > The Americas > Caribbean.
  3. Right click on the Grenada folder.

Purchase Price charts will reside within the P&P Production&Procurement Catalogue.

 

 


The Price Chart (Purchase) screen will open.

Select Participants in the Calculation type field to calculate the sales price on a per person basis.

Select Unit in the Calculation type field to calculate the sales price per unit, for example, a cruise or an hotel room.

BEFOREAFTER

Enter Purchase Prices in the Season Chart

Discussion
Now that the Season Charts have been created, the Purchase prices must be entered indicating the purchase price for a standard double room in the Blue Horizons Garden resort for the selected season.

In the illustrated example only one season has been setup 1st November 2010 to 31st October 2011. It is however, still necessary to enter a season price otherwise it will not be possible to book this room in the booking system.

 

 


  1. Right click on the season.
  2. Select Create New Price.


The Saison code / Prices (Sale) window will open.

  1. Select Basic price in the Basis field.
  2. Enter 78 (the purchase price) in the Amount field.
  3. Select Basic price in the Product type field.


 

 

The Product type field is used to define cancellation conditions, commission paid to a travel agency etc. For example a travel agency may receive 5% commission on flights and 10% commission on hotel rooms.

 

 


  1. Select OK to save the new price.


The price is now visible on the right side of the screen. The purchase price chart is now created.


Create a Sales Price and Season Chart

Discussion
A Sales Price chart will now be created. In the One Instance approach Sales Price charts will reside within the POS Catalogue. As the POS folder structure already references the Tour Operator and Year, for example Apollo Sweden 2010/11 (ASE2010/11), there is no need to reference this information in the Sales Price Chart title.

 

 

Once a Purchase Price chart has been created it is possible to make a copy and paste it into the Sales Price chart where it can be edited.

 

 

 

 

 


Please note, if the Booking Ability field in the Booking Code is set to Bookable the system will allow the service to be booked irrespective of whether sales and purchase prices have been set up. This is extremely dangerous as the service could effectively be sold free of charge.

 

 


To create a Sales Price chart:
Step-by-Step: Creating a Sales Price Chart

  1. Select Travel>Selling Prices. Alternatively select the icon.


The Selling Prices menu is displayed.

  1. Select BEWO12/13> The Americas > Caribbean .

  1. Select Stay related in the Price calculation field.
  2. Select Price chart enable in all catalogues.

The option selected in the Price Calculation field determines the price a customer is charged.

If Stay Related is selected a customer might be charged, for example, 100 Euros per night for the first week of their stay and 120 Euros per night for the second week of their stay, because the second week falls into a higher season.

If Departure Related is selected their entire stay will be calculated as at the rate on the date of departure. For example, if their room rate is 100 Euros per night for the first week and 120 Euros per night for the second week, 120 Euros per night will be charged for their entire stay.

 

 

As pricing is season dependent before any prices can be entered into DaVinci a Season Chart must be created and the dates for each season defined. To create the Season Chart:
