Pay Commission Exceptions

When the commission search is done within the Pay Commissions screen and there are exceptions, the rows of the grid are highlighted in blue. The original coloring was very hard to read, especially if there was also red text when overpayments were made. Softrip has updated this screen to have a lighter shade of blue in order to make it easier to read the screen.

Why it’s important:

  • To make it easier for the users to read the screen and be able to quickly make decisions on what to do with the commission payments

Who it affects:

  • Anyone using Softrip to pay the travel agent commissions

Why it’s important:

  • Keeps Softrip and their customers up to date on the competitive rates and nature of air

Mobile view changes to the Top Navigation

Softrip has made some enhancements / adjustments to the top navigation and header when in mobile view. This will allow for some inconsistencies to be fixed as well as to enhance the user experience on mobile devices. The below changes have been made:

  • “My Account” label will only show as My Account if the user is logged in

    • If the user is not logged in yet, this will be labeled “Log in” and take the user to the log in page

  • “My Res” link will only display for external users if they have a Cart, meaning they have started a shop

    • NOTE: This will still show for internal users always as they have the ability to go to an empty res/cart to add manual items, etc.

  • Phone icon will now only display if the setup of the Brand has a phone associated with it. If not, will be hidden

  • Removed duplicate hamburger menu to make it easier to understand which menu to use

Why it’s important:

  • More travelers are using mobile devices to make reservations

  • Trying to make the system/process as clear as possible

Who it affects:

  • Anyone using Res Next on a mobile device

Vacation Builder - Support for multiple service types within a List

Softrip has made a change to the Vacation Builder process in Res Next that will allow for multiple service types to be loaded in to a List. When shopping for a Hotel, Softrip will still pull the “hotel” list, but if any items in the product are not a hotel, they will now be added to an “Additional Services” section in the results. These services will only display in this section if the hotel they are associated to is selected. To load these, these services will need to be loaded within the same plan as the hotel they are associated to.

This section will not display if no additional services are valid or if the selected hotel does not have any other services associated with it’s plan.

Why it’s important:

  • Allows for the operator to give optional services/transfers as options only when a specific hotel is selected

  • Makes it clearer to the user that they can only select these items when selecting a specific hotel

Who it affects:

  • Reservations Next vacation builder users
