Suppliers

Manage the companies that provide the products you sell — hotels, airlines, tour operators, and service providers.

Suppliers are the companies and partners that provide the products you sell to customers. Every hotel, airline, tour operator, and service provider you work with is registered as a supplier. When you add a product to your inventory, you assign it to a supplier for fulfillment tracking, reconciliation, and reporting.

How It Works

You create a supplier with their contact information, assign them a code for internal reference, and optionally configure automated supplier reports. One supplier can be marked as the default — new products are assigned to the default supplier unless you specify otherwise.

Key Concepts

Supplier Properties

PropertyDescription
NameThe supplier's business name
CodeA short internal identifier
Unique IDAn external reference number (e.g., vendor ID in your accounting system)
EmailThe supplier's primary email address
Contact NameThe name of your primary contact at the supplier
PhoneContact phone number

URLSupplier's website
Payment Deadline DaysThe number of days you have to pay the supplier after a booking
ActiveWhether the supplier is currently in use
DefaultWhether this is the default supplier for new products

Default Supplier

One supplier can be marked as the default. When you set a supplier as default, any previously default supplier is automatically unset. The default supplier is pre-selected when creating new inventory products.

Supplier Reports

Each supplier has an automated reporting configuration that lets you send booking data to the supplier on a schedule:

SettingOptions
EnabledWhether automated reports are active for this supplier
Delivery MethodEmail
ScheduleManual, Daily, Weekly, or Monthly
Row ModePer Booking (one row per booking) or Per Participant (one row per participant)
Report ModeChangelog (only changes since last report) or Current Status (full snapshot)
Recipient EmailWhere to send the report

Report Columns

You can customize which data columns appear in supplier reports. The system provides a set of available columns, and you can add, remove, or reorder them to match what each supplier needs.

Available columns include order details (code, status, dates), client information (name, email, phone, address), booking details (product name, type, variant, dates, price, external reference, notes), participant information (name, type, age, nationality, passport details), and payment status. You select which columns to include from the full list and arrange them in the order you want. You can customize which data columns appear in supplier reports. The available columns depend on the selected row mode and report mode — different combinations offer different data fields. Use the drag-and-drop interface to add, remove, and reorder columns to match what each supplier needs.

Report Deliveries

Every time a report is sent, the delivery is logged and tracked through the email delivery system:

StatusDescription
PendingReport is queued for delivery
SubmittedReport has been sent to the email provider
DeliveredReport reached the recipient's inbox
FailedReport could not be sent
BouncedDelivery was rejected by the recipient's email server

You can view the delivery history for each supplier, download previously sent reports, and resend reports if delivery failed.

Supplier Booking Reports

You can generate ad-hoc supplier reports for any date range. These reports include all bookings for the supplier within the selected period, exported as a ZIP file containing CSV data with two sheets:

  • Updated — Bookings that were modified during the date range
  • Starting — Bookings with departure dates falling within the date range

Each sheet includes order details (code, status, created/updated dates), client information (name, email, phone), booking details (product name, type, variant, dates, price, confirmation status, external reference), VAT information (category, amount), and participant details (name, type, nationality, passport).

You can also preview the report data in the browser before downloading or sending it to the supplier.

How It Connects

  • Inventory — Every product is assigned to a supplier for fulfillment and cost tracking.
  • Actions — The managed "Supplier Report" action delivers automated supplier reports.
