Markup setting

To set up a markup for a client, it is necessary to associate first the client to a group (it is possible to define just a single Client within a group). If the group has not been created yet, go to menu Admin > Clients > Groups > New Group and fill the fields with the set up of the markup.

The change will be applied to all Suppliers of that Client.

  • Markup: it overwrites the mark up set in the direct contracts
  • VarMarkup: this is a variation, which can be either positive or negative, applied to the markup set in the direct contracts. First, the contractual markup is calculated, and then the variation specified here is applied
  • Commission: it is valid only for direct contracts and it's the percentage of the profit on the gross price
  • VarMarkupXML: this is a variation, which can be either positive or negative, applied to the markup set in the supplier’s XML plugin configurations. First, the markup defined in the plugin configurations is calculated, and then the variation specified in this section is applied

Once the group has been created, it is necessary to associate it with the client in the Configuration of Customer Profile.

Following the steps Admin > Clients > Groups, if a group is selected, it is possible to see the markup setting and the list of the clients associated

  • Save: when first defining a Markup / Var. Markup / Commission

  • Update Tariffs: to update tariffs with changes set for all dates or a specific date range To save the data entered, it will be necessary to press Hotels if you are dealing with hotel contracts (or if you are dealing with other types of contracts, such as transfers, you will press the corresponding button). The update will occur overnight because it will change all rates associated with that group of all referenced contracts.

Such updates are recorded in Admin / Configurations > Operations Queue where you can check their status:

Success: the update was successful

Failure: the update was not successful

Enqueued: the update has yet to become effective (check next day)

If no markup is set for the Client, the system uses the one specified in the XML supplier configurations.
