The Exclusive SABRE Script Supplier for TRAMS, Inc.

 You are about to see how your office can become more productive and efficient, just by using Scripts by Design. Your agents will no longer need to memorize difficult or confusing formats, and can concentrate on what they enjoy most – SELLING TRAVEL!! They will fly through the easy-to-use fill-in masks, which will create accurate and uniform invoices, each and every time. Your Back Office operator will also be thrilled. With error-free entries from the SABRE agents, she will no longer be spending valuable time fixing errors created by incorrect formats.

Do your agents know the difference between a "C", "S", or "A" type of invoice? Do they really care? SCRIPTS BY DESIGN will arrive in your office customized specifically for your agency. I have more than 23 years of SABRE experience, and I am a TRAMS Certified Consultant as well. I will assist you in making the correct decision on how you would like to transmit information to TRAMS. Your scripts arrive with many "blanks" already filled in. Your agents only need to know if it is a deposit or final payment, and if the client is paying with credit card or check. SCRIPTS BY DESIGN will do the rest.

Following is a quick overview of three of the many time- saving options included. You will see how quick and easy it is for your agents to enter the information, print the invoice and have the correct information transmitted to your Back Office, with just a few quick keystrokes.

 

 

SERVICE FEES:

The following screen snaps are exactly what your agents will see when they access the Service Fees script.

 

Only three pieces of information are needed. SCRIPTS BY DESIGN already have your Vendor Interface ID and TRAMS travel type programmed into the script.

 

The itinerary is displayed on the SABRE screen so the agents can choose where they would prefer the Service Fee segment to appear on the invoice.

 

 

UNBELIEVABLE, just four questions and you get an
OTH Segment and Accounting Line, all entered automatically, with PERFECT interface to TRAMS.

 

 

TOURS:

As you see, the agents have their choice of the Tour Booking Segment or a Tour Accounting Line. If the agent chooses Tour Booking Segment, she will be prompted for a Tour Accounting Line again at the end of the process.

 

 


The agent fills in the information, and the SABRE GK Segment is complete.

 

Additional information can be added with Associated Segment Remarks.

 


The next screen prompts for the accounting line, now or later, whichever the agent prefers.

 

 

 

Decision time – MADE EASY!!!!! Not a chance that wrong information is being sent to TRAMS now. Your agency defaults are already programmed into your SCRIPTS BY DESIGN.

 

 

Just fill in the blanks – even your mother could do it!

 

 

And just like that – ALL that information going to TRAMS – and so easy…….

 

 

What actually happened here, you ask? Well, an invoice was printed with a Tour Segment for Walt Disney World showing two people leaving on January 25, and it was confirmed by Minnie. An Accounting Line will print on the invoice showing a deposit was received of $200.00 and it was paid by check. What also goes over to TRAMS is almost unbelievable. An Open Supplier Booking has been created because the agent chose "Deposit by Check". Also included in the interface data is the Final Payment Amount, the Final Payment Due Date, the Amount of Commission to be expected , the Start and End Dates of the Tour, the TRAMS Vendor Interface ID, the Air Itinerary, the Confirmation Number, and the Amount of Passengers. Amazing, isn’t it! Imagine the reports you can access with all of that information going to TRAMS!

The agency has their choice of several options offered by TRAMS for their Final Payment Invoice.

They are:

Final Payment by Credit Card transmitted as Commission Tracking.

Final Payment by Credit Card creating two bookings – one for Closed Supplier and one for Open Commission Track.

Final Payment by Credit Card transmitted as Closed Supplier.

Final Payment by Check transmitted as Open Supplier.

Final Payment by Agency Credit Card transmitted as Closed Supplier.

It is this feature that makes SCRIPTS BY DESIGN so unique and exciting. Your agents will never know all the information they are sending to TRAMS because yours scripts are designed especially for you. And I‘ll even make the decision process painless. Because of my years of experience independently consulting for TRAMS, I have worked with many managers and owners setting up their TRAMS systems. I have used that invaluable experience in creating SCRIPTS BY DESIGN.

HOTELS:

Do your agents book a lot of hotels over the phone? Or do they book "Hotel Only" PNR’s in SABRE? If the answer is "Yes" to either of these questions, then this option alone will make SCRIPTS BY DESIGN a hit in your office. Following you will see the easy steps it takes to enter a hotel and accounting line into a PNR.

"ADD GK SEGMENT FOR HOTEL BOOKED BY PHONE" will be selected.

 

 

 

If the hotel is listed in SABRE’s database, the agents will not have to hand-enter all of the hotel information, such as address, phone numbers, Vendor ID, etc.

 

 

The agent is then prompted for the necessary information to search the SABRE database for the hotel.

 

 

 

All Hilton Hotels in LAX are displayed, and the agent simply chooses the line number of the hotel she reserved.

 

 

The reservation information is filled in.




The agent is then prompted for an accounting line, which is only needed if this a "Hotel Only" booking, or if the ticket was previously generated from SABRE.

 


The GK Segment is displayed, and the agent simply fills in the accounting information.

 

 

AND JUST LIKE THAT – A SABRE GK Segment with all of the hotel’s information ready to print on the itinerary for your client, as well as a Commission Tracking accounting line along with the HOD Vendor Code from SABRE.
