These can be grouped into different departments on the page, to easily be able to find the functions that you often need. You can also put up several My pages for different purposes.

My pages can be made personal so that only you can reach your page, or be shared with other users in the company.

You can reach My pages through the top menu, so that you always can reach My pages easily and quickly.

From the start you can choose among all functions in the menu to the left and add them to your own My pages. Gradually will also other functions be available to add in your My pages.

<description><![CDATA[On the top page in admin, after logging in, you can see three search boxes to the left.

The one at the top is a telephone search that is used for example when the client is calling. The function is designed so that although a telephone number is stated like 08-12 34 56 in the database, you can search by 08123456 and find the client. From the client register you can see client information and also start a reservation so that the client information is automatically filled in in step 3 of the booking. It is sufficient to state part of the telephone number to be able to find the clients matching the search. To search for a client on basis of something else but telephone number, use the link Advanced.

In reservation search you can state a reservation number and get directly to the reservation (i.e. like Customer Administration / Amend reservation). You can also state a name and then the system will search for a reservation with this name either as orderer or as traveler.

In project search you can search on a project to be able to see important information about the project and to easily make amendments to it. If you state something that gives a unique projectID, you will get directly to the project, otherwise you will get to the same page as when searching in Travel Administration / Project overview.

If you write PAR as an example (those searches are not case sensitive, so PAR and par will give the same result), all those containing PAR will be included, such as SAPPARRA, PARIS. Technically this is a search with a joker sign before and after PAR, %PAR%. 

By using this new function - Use your own joker sign -  you will be able to insert the joker signs instead of having the system to set them before and after. This is very handy if you would like all starting with PAR but not SAPPARA for example. In this case you write PAR%.]]></description>

When it comes to the ALC booking, it is done by setting different parameters in the system. If you need or want to use this please contact the support and we will help you to set this up. The payment with credit card is moved to step 4 in the booking to help the process run more smoothly. The card fee is given in % or in a fixed amount. Please observer that in many countries it is not allowed/legal according to the agreement with the card supplier to take an administrative charge. This is automatically added in step 4 and is saved separately on the booking which means that it is shown in “Change booking”, e-mail confirmations and standard confirmations. If credit card is chosen (or if mandatory) in step 4 you will get to step 5 as before when the payment has gone through. If any part of the booking is not confirmed a credit card transaction will not be made, it will then stop in order 5. If not stopped a  prompt will be shown e.g. “Payment in process”. When payment is completed a confirmation will be shown. If the card is not accepted you will be posted into a now page where the customer can try to enter the payment info again. If any part of the booking must be done by credit card the booking will be put into status Preliminary in step 5.

<description><![CDATA[New editor has been developed in order to help you create Webb content in a more efficient way. Many new functions had been added which will help you administrate the content on you pages. You can e.g. add flash movies to your pages, use the spellchecker etc. When copying info from word you will automatically get the question if you want to remove all formatting. This formatting needs to be removed in order for the layout on the page to be of good quality. You can also copy tables, delete or add new rows much easier than before. There are also possibilities for you to have custom-made templates which are a useful function if you decide on how the layout should be on each page.]]></description>

<title><![CDATA[Integrated function to send automatic SMS from Travelize (2 Oct)]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[A new function to automatically send SMS has been integrated into Travelize. As a first feature, you can select to receive a message to one or several mobile numbers when a late booking arrives. You will get basic information about the reservation and contact details to the customer. For many small operators this could mean that the sales could stay open longer than before.

More features based on SMS will be integrated. For example the plan is to offer the possibility to collect mobile numbers to customers willing to travel on short notice and send out last minute offers to them. SMS is a very powerful marketing tool when the customer has signed up for such service.

Another planned feature is the possible to in addition to e-mail and printed messages also send out SMS to selections of customers on a specific tour or similar giving information about changed departure time or similar. The SMS will reach the customer much faster than e-mail or printed letter.

You are welcome to give us suggestions to other areas where you would like to see the SMS feature being implemented.

Contact our support if you want to start using the SMS functions. The cost is 12 p per SMS currently with a service fee of £ 15 per month.

It saves time and gives our clients the possibility to book on line. Travelize was also able to integrate the system with that of Sembos.

<title><![CDATA[Cax report becomes repayment report with several new functions (27 Aug)]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[The cax reports has been renamed into Repayment report. It shows all cancelled bookings from last time it was confirmed as well as bookings with more registered as paid than the total booking value (which can be the result of customer error, change of tour and similar). Upon confirming this report, a book keeping transaction will be created crediting these amounts on the reservations. You can select which bookings to confirm by checking all or individual reservations.

By default the report only shows reservations with at least £ 1 (or 1 in any currency) for active bookings wiht more paid than total cost. If you would like another cut off level we will be happy to configurate this for you.

You can also sort the report by clicking on the arrows in the headlines.

Build project code automatically: You don't need to enter a code, it will be put together of outboundtransport+hotel code (or ID number of no code has been entered).

The hotel selection on the project is simplified - if you write a part of a name which is sigificant (that part is not part of any other hotel name) you don't need to search for the hotel. You only need to write this sigificant part in the search box.
