The Code Settings part needs to be filled out with the codes that are used when assigning the unique identifier to your deals, leads and invoices (credit notes, customer and supplier invoices). Usually the codes are 001, 01 or 1, meaning that your first dealcode will be B-001, B-01 or B-1.

Code Settings can be general or made by Brand.

Define the statuses for deals, customer payments, customer invoices and supplier invoices, by actions.

Example:

For Booking Create we have set Quote as status. When a new deal is created its status will be automatically set to Quote.

These products will be automatically added as arrangements when creating a new deal and their dates and assignments will be automatically updated by the system when the operator adds the first manual arrangement - to have the same assignments and dates as the manually added arrangement.

In case you create a deal only with the automatic product, without any manual arrangement, its start date will be the current date and its end date will be current date plus 7 days.

Automatic Products will not be added for Lead type deals or when editing an existing deal.

The Automatic Product feature comes handy in case your business logic requires one or more products as arrangements in all the Option / Booking type deals that you create in Victoury, since using this setting your operators will not have to add these manually in each deal they initiate, but the system will load it automatically in the booking process.

Such products might be VIP services or any other product at your choice.

Furthermore, the Tax drop-down in this section is a nice to have addition to this feature.

The automatic sell tax application works by following a setting on the level of the automatic product price - called Automatic sell tax. You may find this setting in Price Details / General Information.

The system will overwrite the tax set originally on the price of your automatic product with the one set in Settings if the below conditions are met:

In the Create Deal Wizard you will see the automatic product marked as Auto loaded.

See here that the tax is 0 at this moment due to the original sell tax set.

In the below example a manual arrangement is added, where on the sell price tax 19% is set. This tax 19% matches the tax set for the automatic product, therefore the system applies the tax 19% automatically to the automatic product.

Tax Mapping

You can set a Sell Tax to be applied to a continent/country/region.

When creating a new product having Country/Region as set in Tax Mapping, the price automatically added will already have the sell tax added.

One Time Charge

This setting is to be made by Product Category.

When creating a new product in the Category set in One Time Charge, the price automatically added will already have One Time Charge set to Yes.

Profit Mapping

A profit percentage may be set for each category of products.

When a new product is created, the price automatically created will already have prefilled the value of the Profit as set for the category of which the products belongs to.

For an existing product, the profit value is automatically prefilled when creating a new price for the product.

If there is a tax selected here for Tax on sell difference, this tax will be applied automatically on in the booking process - when the deal is created or updated. This tax is applied on the difference between the custom amount per traveler and the regular sell amount calculated from the arrangements.

In this section we add the categories of products that will contain the insurance products.

The categories of products set as insurances are involved in the calculation of the insurance value per traveler.

The system is checking which arrangement of the deal is an Insurance product (having rule #20 set per price) by checking if its category is inserted in Insurance Categories section in General Settings.
