Overview
Set system defaults and switch settings for travel agent masters. If any configuration settings are directly connected to a system switch, that switch number is displayed on the Configuration screen.
Switches maintained on Configuration pages cannot be maintained from the
main System | Switch
Maintenance area. In addition to settings for only travel agents,
there is also an All Masters
tab with settings that affect all master types.
- Default Balance Forward Statement Report
- Type the report name in directly or click the Browse button to select from the existing list to set the "Default Balance Forward Statement Report Name". This report is used when processing agent statements.
- Process Agent Statements on Calendar Month Only (912-03)
- Indicate how often agents are paid. When checked, the agents are paid once and only once a month, and the system processes folio transactions with a transaction date in the
prior month. For example, if the current date is 2/15/2005, the system processes
commission transactions dated prior to 1/31/2005. This switch should
be checked for most properties, since they are processing January agent statements in February.
This setting should not be altered unless there has been a policy change
regarding the time period for paying agents.
When not checked, agents are paid more than once a month (daily if desired), and the system processes all commission transactions through the current system date. For example, if the current date is 2/15/2005, the system processes commission transactions with a date of 2/15/2005 and earlier. Leave this switch unchecked to generate agent statements on a non-monthly basis. - Display Comment 1 on the Process Commission Screen
- When checked, the Agent Master's Comment 1 field displays on the Process Commission screen in line with the rate plan on the reservation and transaction line.
