One of you should always check them and add the new cases on Trello (please find the full step-by-step guide here), and whichever case is urgent – to be dealt with immediately.
- Confirmation Number – add confirmation numbers to each hotel booking in our system which is not reconfirmed by the Conf. number department with ONLY the same day and next day check-ins.

How to make a HotelsPro reservation:
-
Once the email is received from MetGlobal, (see attached example), please read all the details below and immediately create a new case on Trello before proceeding:
-
The hotel name

-
The dates

-
The nationality which is indicated with 2 letters, if you are not sure what it means please google it

4. The reference number which should be used in as “voucher ID” in the booking

-
The meal type

-
The total agent rate

-
The deadline

-
The room type

The guests’ names
-
Now please go to Tripathon backoffice: Agents/Users -> Agents -> Search:
-

- Search for Hotelspro “agent” and click login as admin:
-
And in the front end make the relevant search:
-
So below is the correct room type with correct deadline (please note that our rate as Supplier should be cheaper than the Agent rate we saw in the MetGlobal email):
-
Fill in the names by means of copy/paste:

- And make the booking! If the booking is non-refundable put the “voucher ID” the “reference code” from the MetGlobal email.
- Then copy the TG number and go to Tripathon Backoffice to voucher it (if the booking is refundable, ALWAYS VOUCHER HOTELSPRO BOOKINGS) and to modify the Agent rate. Once vouchered go to “Modify” and add the mark-up to make the agent rate to be 1337.76 USD as you saw in the email of MetGlobal, either by adding the markup by percentage or by amount:
or
And regulate with discounts to make the amount accurate:
-
And save the modification without ticking the boxes above the “Save” button.
-
Please write the TG number in the relevant Trello case, in the comment field.
-
Reconfirm the booking with the hotel and of the check-in is close write the confirmation number and the staff name in our system, in “Add Hotel Confirmation #” box, inside the “Enter Hotel Confirmation No” field, if the check-in after more than 3 days, please put the details in the “Remarks” field.

-
Write the hotel confirmation number in the “Enter Hotel Confirmation No” field, along with the hotel staff name in the “Message” field, and “Submit”
-
Update the Trello case that Tripathon and HotelsPro systems have been updated with the hotel confirmation number and that’s it.

Stop Sale Step-by-Step Guide:
- You get the email, for example:

- Go to our back office: Direct Contracts -> Hotels -> Add Hotel Rates

- Type the name (1 word) of the hotel in the “Hotel Name” field and click “Search”:

- As you can see in the email, it is mentioned Lancaster HOTEL – so you are choosing the below mentioned ones, by editing them one by one through clicking the red mentioned icon in the right which is “Add Room Rates”:

- After entering the new page through “Add Room Rates”, please click the “Stop Sell” the choose the “Full Stop Sell”

- Select only the room types mentioned by the hotel in their email by finding the room type/types in the “Inventory Room Category” drop-down list and making sure they will have the tick sign “” next to the name: (*P.S. if the hotel is stopping the Junior Suite for example, you need to stop Junior Suite Double, Junior Suite Twin, Junior Suite Triple and so on.)
- If you don’t room types please head on to the previous tab and select the next one:


- Select the “Date” inclusive of the mentioned date

- And Click “Save”
- Then, please go to “View Stop/Free Sell”, select the “Date” and “Search” in order to check if you did the job correctly:

- Now that you are sure you stopped all the Lancaster Hotels in our system as they might be 1 or more than 2, go to the hotelsPro backoffice to check if we have the hotel there – to close there as well:

Password: ZaHir1
- Write couple of letters of the hotel name in the “Hotel Name” and click “Search”:

- Hover the mouse on the “Actions” button on the correct hotel row and click the below mentioned icon of bed :

- Please note that irrelevant of the dates you see in the left side please check all the rows by clicking on icon of bed and make sure to put the stop sales wherever you find the room and the correct dates:

- Hover the mouse to the below section of the “Room(s)” to see the room type:

- And then click on the dates one by one to close them as follows: click on the grey box under the exact date 27 Oct, 2019, From the “*Status” select the “Closed” and “SAVE CHANGES”

- So, the final look should be red under all the required dates:

- Again, make sure to check all the rows from here and do not forget to forward the same email you got from the hotel to tariff@tripathon.com with an update about what you did and in which platforms:
- When you book by Jam transfer and see a rate there – it is including 5% commissions and when you draw the offline you should write the NET rate EXCLUDING commissions and you can find the exact number when you search the booking in “transfers” section inside JAM transfer website:

2. You should NOT change the the currency of supplier in the offline booking. You can make agency rate whatever you want but supplier you should stick to the currency you see in the screenshot i sent above
3. Not only with jam but all transfers, even if you book round trip, you should draw 2 offline bookings 1st with arrival date and you can write arrival transfer from Paris CDG airport to hotel George V and the return something like one way transfer from the hotel to airport and divide the supplier rate and the agency rate that you gave and in each TG write the same supplier ref number.
Please follow these rules otherwise i accounts will suffer from the incorrection, then send all the list to me, then i will waste time in checking them one by one and asking you to correct.
