The Travel Agent Commission programs are routines to perform the following functions.

• Maintain Travel Agent Masters

• Post Commission Record upon check-out

• Prints Commission Checks

• Creates Travel Agent Transaction History

• Interfaces to Daily Report System

Commissions payable transactions are generated by the night audit routines and posted to the Travel Agent and Daily Report detail files. Manual commission posting routines are provided to enter corrections and adjustments to existing commissions payable records.

The System can track two travel agents (or a travel agent and tour operator) on a guest record.  Appropriate commissions can be set up for each in either percentage or flat rate amounts and paid accordingly. 

Complete lists of IATA or ASTA travel agents can be purchased on CD Rom from these associations and imported into the CSS System. 

If a travel agent sends a deposit to the hotel less his commission, the CSS System will pay only the remaining commission due.   

A history file is maintained which keeps track of all commissions that have been processed and previously paid. If an attempt is made to process a previously paid commissions, the system will alert the operator.
