Change Travel Dates

1. Search for and retrieve a booking to work with. If you haven't done this already, see Retrieve an Existing Quote/Booking.
2. Switch to the Itinerary View of the booking.

   1. The default view for a booking is the Dashboard view.

      

   2. A single service can be opened from the Dashboard by clicking on the service. Alternatively, switch to Itinerary view by selecting, from the FITs menu, FITs > Itinerary.

      1. Click the FITs hamburger menu to open it:

         

      2. Click the Itinerary menu option to show the itinerary for this booking:

         

   3. Examine the Itinerary on this screen.

      

      NOTE: The service lines shown in the example Itinerary above cover all services for all pax , however, some services may not apply to some pax. To see which services apply to which pax , click either the drop-down or the left/right arrows in the All Pax field at the top of the list.

3. Select menu FITs > Itinerary > Change Travel Date.

   1. Click the FITs hamburger menu to open it:

      

   2. Click the Itinerary menu option to expand it:

      

   3. Click Change Travel Date to open the Change Travel Date screen:

      

4. On the Change Travel Date screen, enter a New Travel Date and click Save.

   

5. If the Recalculate Booking screen appears, select the relevant option (i.e. Replace All, Replace All But Overrides or No Prices) and click Yes.

   If Recalculate Booking does pop-up, then Tourplan has determined that a recalculation is required. It's not possible to change travel dates without a recalculation unless current service dates are retained.

Unchecked

Leaving the 'Retain Current Service Dates' unchecked indicates to the system that the dates of all services in the booking will be changed to reflect the new Travel Date; i.e., the services at Day 1 will inherit the new travel date; the services at day 2 will become new travel date + 1 day and so on.

When Save is clicked, Tourplan will prompt to re-cost the Booking. The choices are:

• Replace All – Changes the Booking Header date and all service dates and re-costs all services for the revised travel dates.

• All Except Overrides – As above however does not re-cost services where the original database rates were manually overridden. Manually overridden values need to be confirmed with the ‘OK’ button.

• No Prices – Recalculates the totals based on the existing service line values.

• Update Exchange Rates – When the Booking services are re-costed should Tourplan continue to use the previous Exchange Rates (unchecked) or use the Exchange Rates from the Tourplan Code Setup module Currency Rates table for the new travel date (checked).

Checked

If the Travel Date needs to be changed but all existing Services already booked are to remain the same, then setting the “Retain Current Service Dates” check-box will ensure that happens. For example, this may be needed where the client is now arriving three days earlier than planned but still wanting to make use of itinerary as is, and having some additional services in those first three days.

In this case, no recalculation of the booking is required.

Warning

If the booking has transactions recorded, a warning message will display alerting consultants of possible transaction adjustment requirements.
