Pay Suppliers Enhancements
Softrip has made many changes to the Pay Suppliers screen within this release. We did our own internal testing of this screen and found many areas that were inconsistent with how the forms and grids all interacted, as well as many defects reported recently by a variety of customers. Softrip went through a large revamp of this screen to clean this process up and make sure all user interactions and automatic interactions are working as expected. We tested over 35 use cases of the various processes and searches within the screen to be sure that these processes are now working as expected.
Why it’s important:
Paying Suppliers is one of the main functions of the Softrip Accounting system. By improving the quality of this screen, it will help efficiencies and frustrations within the accounting departments.
Who it affects:
Anyone using Accounting Next → Pay Suppliers

Costing Log and Cost Detail Display
Softrip has added the ability to view both the Cost Detail breakdown and Costing Log of a specific service within a reservation. This has been updated in the Reservations Next system and applies mainly to FIT Operators, though can also be useful for an Escorted Tour or Group Operator.
When pricing a service, Softrip keeps a log of what how the price for that service was arrived at by keeping track of the costs used, the markups used, and any supplier promotions that were applicable. This will now be easily viewable by a user within the reservations system in 2 ways:
Through the Edit Item screen
A new button will be available to view the cost details
Through the cart menu options
For each service, a View Cost Detail menu option will display beneath the Edit and Remove options
| Info |
|---|
A new checkpoint has been introduced to allow the operator to restrict who is able to view this detail. This will allow for restricting external users from being able to view any of this information. |
Why it’s important:
The breakdown of the cost detail and log allow for the users to understand how a price was calculated. This may help find issues with how a contract was loaded or a markup was loaded quickly so that they can be changed or corrected as soon as possible.

Per Room costing with child supplements
Softrip has enhanced it’s pricing engine / shop process to allow for children to be a supplementary cost when a hotel room is loaded as Per Room costing! Previously, if a hotel was marked as Per Room, any child age ranges and child costs would be ignored and the full room cost was loaded as 1 cost. If you needed different costs for 2 adults vs. 2 adults + 1 child, you would need to create 2 separate masks and load the room cost for each mask separately.
With this enhancement, you can now load 1 mask record for AA/AAC and tell the system that the room cost for 2 adults is $200 and a child in a room is $50, bringing the total room cost to $250.
