BUY PRICE - SERVICE / OPTION

The "Link Service or Option" feature is a crucial tool for maintaining accurate and up-to-date pricing information within your system. It allows your contract and product team to connect your offerings with the latest rates from various suppliers, ensuring that your quotes and bookings always reflect the most current pricing. To make this process even more efficient, the system provides helpful filters to quickly locate the correct services and options.

Here's a breakdown:

How it Works:

• Connecting to Supplier Rates: The contract and product team establishes links between your services/options and the corresponding rates provided by your suppliers. This connection ensures that when you select a service or option, the system automatically retrieves the latest price from the supplier.

• Dynamic Updates: When suppliers update their rates, the linked services and options in your system are automatically updated as well. This eliminates the need for manual price adjustments and ensures that your pricing is always current.

Filtering for Efficiency:

To streamline the process of linking services and options, the system offers various filters:

• Service Type: Filter options based on the type of service, such as accommodation, transportation, activities, or meals.

• Location: Filter options based on the location where the service is provided.

• Option Names: Search for specific options using keywords or partial names.

• Suppliers: Filter options based on the supplier providing the service.

• Periods: Filter options based on the date range when the service is available, allowing you to link to rates that are valid for specific travel periods.

Benefits:

• Accurate Pricing: Linking services and options to supplier rates guarantees that your quotes and bookings reflect the most up-to-date pricing information.

• Efficiency: Automating the price update process and providing filters saves time and reduces the risk of errors.

• Consistency: Ensures consistent pricing across all your products, packages, and bookings.

• Streamlined Quoting: Allows you to quickly and confidently generate quotes with accurate pricing information.

Applications:

• Products: When creating or updating products, you can link the included services and options to their corresponding supplier rates.

• Packages: Similarly, when building packages, you can link the various components to their respective supplier rates.

• Bookings: When creating bookings, the system automatically retrieves the latest rates for the selected linked services and options.

Collaboration:

This feature highlights the collaborative effort between the contract and product team and the rest of the organization. The contract and product team ensures that the links are established and maintained, while other teams benefit from having access to accurate and up-to-date pricing information.

By effectively utilizing the "Link Service or Option" feature and its filtering capabilities, you can streamline your pricing management, ensure accuracy, and provide your clients with confidence in your pricing and quotes.
