How to set autobilling for handling

Overview

Autobilling for Handling enables automatic generation of invoices related to handling services provided by suppliers. The configuration is managed within the supplier’s profile and determines whether handling charges are invoiced separately or included within the hotel’s invoice.


Purpose

This setup ensures that handling costs are invoiced according to supplier agreements and accounting preferences. It provides flexibility to:

  • Automatically bill handling services using their own schedule, or

  • Combine handling charges with the hotel’s main invoice.

How It Works

When Automatic Billing is enabled in the supplier’s handling configuration, Tourpaq:

  1. Uses the selected creditor to generate invoices.

  2. Applies the configured account debit and schedule (daily, weekly, monthly, or days after).

  3. Determines whether handling should be invoiced separately or included in the hotel invoice based on the Add Own Schedule setting.
