Voucher

Voucher

Voucher is a document issued by travel agents or tour operators. In exchange for this document travelers receive specified tourism services such as hotel accommodation, meals, sightseeing trips, transfers, car rental and other items included in a tour. Sometimes such documents are then debited back to the original agents (suppliers) for providing commission.

In Application the Voucher can be issued for such services as Transfer, Hotel (and Misc – miscellaneous service provided by hotel) and Sightseeing (Tour), i. e. for all segments excluding Flight. One voucher becomes issued per a segment, no matter for which amount of persons/rooms it is booked.

In case there is a description completed at the profile form (for hotel (tour), sightseeing and transfer) of the service (see for example, Transfer → 'Description' tab) of 'Voucher/Itinerary' type, that info is displayed in the Voucher.

Description Priorities

At the moment the language specification for the voucher description is not in use (BK).
The description is choiced in this sequence:

If the voucher description is linked to the supplier
then Danish description is shown
- If no Danish description, the English description.

If the voucher description is not linked to the supplier
then Danish description is shown
- If no Danish description, the English description.

So firstly it takes description linked to the supplier of the segment. If no - then all without supplier are taken. Description of another supplier is not used!
Among descriptions taken first choiced the one which has alanguage equal to translation language. E.g. if translation of Voucher is set to Danish - first Danish description is taken.
If no exact language match - English (EN code) is used. Other languages are not supported by this logic.

The text from 'Type', 'Language', 'Supplier' or 'Header' is not presented on the voucher – only the description voucher text.

Reasons to issue a Voucher:
• to give to a client ‘paper evidence’ that the booking has been made;
• to issue a document which tends in a quick way to help a service provider (hotel, sightseeing agency etc.) and a customer (client) to understand which service the client has booked;
• to state for supplier that the service booked through your company is going to be used and to arrange financial (statistical) agreements if there are any.
