Agency/Company Mappings
Use Agent and Company Mappings when individual agents or companies have their own negotiated or contracted rates.
When an agent or company makes a reservation through TravelIT, their corresponding profile should be mapped to the matching agent or company record in NebulaONE. This ensures that:
The correct agent or company profile is automatically assigned to the reservation.
The applicable negotiated or contracted rate plan/s are applied to the booking.
Reservations are attributed to the correct agent or company for reporting and commission purposes.
Rate integrity is maintained by ensuring each booking receives the rates agreed for that specific agent or company.
Example:
If ABC Travel has a contracted rate plan STO20 and is mapped within TravelIT, any reservation received from ABC Travel will automatically be associated with the ABC Travel profile and the STO20 rate plan will be applied to the booking.
