Price Component Profiles
Price components can be used to separate total booking values into amounts for items such as Sales Tax, local accommodation taxes and service charges.
Breaking out prices is done by setting up a Component Profile and associating this with products for a given date range.
At present RoomBoss supports profiles which breakout:
Sales Tax (%) (and other commisionable and )
Sales Tax (%) and a taxable service charge (%)
Sales Tax 10% and Kutchan Bed tax
Sales Tax (%) and an amount derived from option A on the product.
Components can be broken out:
On Invoices and receipts
On the Excel custom bookings report
On the Kutchan Bed tax page (if appropriate)
In trust accounting
Once setup price components can the be used to manage agent commission-ability of elements which make up the price. So for example it is possible to setup so that agent commissions are calculated on the booking value excluding local bed tax.
