GIATA/TTI CODES:

Development has been implemented to import GIATA hotel information and map it to hotel vendor profiles. The GIATA codes can then be used to de-dupe hotel search results, based on cheapest sell price, cheapest buy price, or rank as set in the pricing engine.

The de-duping can be overriden by excluding certain locations and/or date ranges via a new "Exclude dedupe locations/dates" tab within Settings > Locations.

116173WINDOWS SERVICES - AUTO-PNR:Additional optional logging has been added to the Windows Services code which writes to the Event Log. Progress of the auto-pnr is written out so it can be seen if it has stopped or failed.

A new dolphin.ini setting has been added to the [Testing] Section called: "LogAutoInterfacingProgressToDB"When this is set to 0, no logging will take placeWhen this is set to 1, logging will take place to the BulkOperationLogs_TB for the Auto-PNR operation.

The Message will contain various text depending on the outcome. The message type will be "SUCCESS" if the file interfaces successfully. If it fails, it will be a UIMESSAGE (this is the same as the message seen in the interface box when it doesn’t interface). If something goes badly wrong it will be FAILURE.

112278PRODUCT DETAILS EXPORT:

The Product Details Export has been enhanced to provide a costing breakdown whereby all the costing items that make up the total price of the product will also be cached and included as part of the export.

In addition, the LeadInPrices have been restructured and grouped by the BranchCode, Currency, and passenger combinations to provide a more logical grouping of the lead in prices for a product.

The contracts have been reordered so that they are exported by the ContractCode within the Contract element, in alphabetical order (A-Z).

In order to allow the export to be more readable in a plain text editor the output will include tabs and carriage returns such that child elements are on new lines and indented relative to their parent, similar to the way in which XML files are formatted when viewed in Internet Explorer.

112573NEW VENDOR FINANCIALS SETTING:-

A new security setting has been added to the Data column of the Access/Updates tabe of security.

When ticked, the user will have read/write access to the Financial 1 and Financial 2 tabs of Vendor profiles. When unticked, the user will have read only access to these tabs.

If a user had the setting Vendor ticked, then the Vendor Financials setting will be ticked by default.

CR1710, DOL-79

112245FOLDER DELIVERY ADDRESS:

When the new security setting 'Allow Delivery Addresss on Financial Document' (Security-> Folder->) is ticked, a new Use Address dropdown menu will be visible from the Print dialog for all document types. This menu could contain the following options depending on the Folder type:-

Direct:- Use Client Address, Use Delivery Address

Resale:- Use Agency Address, Use Delivery Address

Corporate:- Use Company Address, Use Client Address, Use Delivery Address

When a Delivery Address is present in a folder, this will be the default document type for all non-financial documents.

For financial documents, the default option will always be the financial customer. For example, the Company will be the financial customer for a corporate folder. Therefore the Agency will be the default for a resale folder, and the Client will be the default for a direct folder.

If the security setting is unticked, then historic behavior is maintained and the delivery address will not be used for a financial document.

109304BSP DISH 20 FILE TYPE DISCONTINUED BY IATA:-

There are 2 types of behaviour depending on the contents of the file.

1. Files containing both a KN line and a KS line

When interfaced, the Fare Buy (KN line) will be reduced by the percentage in the FM line

a. The fare sell will be taken from the KS line

111875FIND LABEL DIALOG

The booking management module now supports a 'Find Label' function in the various dialogs.

Previously, Control + F could be used on grids in the BMM - e.g. interface box, vendor rec results tab.

This can now also be used to find fields in a dialog.

For example, if you hit Control + F in a security profile and enter Client, it will identify any instance of the label Client across the dialog, including all the tabs. As you click on Prev or Next, the focus will move through each instance and change tabs where necessary.

If you click into a grid (e.g. Interface box) and use control + F you still see the old Find dialog.

The new functionality does not work on:

• Section/frame labels - e.g. Security Profile > Financials tab > Refund Types. • Button labels. • The values within a dropdown list or text field.
