OVERVIEW
ProTourSQL is the most comprehensive tour management software product on the market today. Harnessing the power of an SQL database and utilizing the experience of hundreds of successful tour operators, ProTourSQL is on the cutting edge of technology. Whether your needs are taking reservations, processing receivables and payables, printing documentation, tracking inventory, running financial or marketing reports, ProTourSQL handles them all with ease.

ENTERPRISE BUSINESS SOLUTIONS
The power of ProTourSQL is its ability to support multiple departments, multiple branches, and multiple offices around the world connecting to the same database at a central office. This functionality will take your company to the next level, connecting your offices around the world and bring them into concert, working as one unit, as a single efficient business engine.

RESERVATION MODULE
The reservation module is designed for flexibility and ease of use. Our system gives you a vast array of booking capabilities: book packages, FIT’s, and complex cruise tours; input special requests; add products on the fly; remove items from packages; give early booking discounts; and much more. ProTourSQL allows you to have reservation centers in multiple locations around the world while still having access to a centralized database. Using ProTourSQL will allow you to:

• Make a reservation in minutes and fax or email a confirmation instantly from your computer
• Train a new agent to take reservations in just a few hours
• Check inventory on each reservation item instantly
• Automated late fees, deposits with due dates, weekday/weekend and seasonal pricing

Reservation Confirmations:

• Confirmation module: Automated confirmation with vendors via fax or email
• Rooming lists and manifests
• Invoices, vouchers and itineraries
• Receivables, payables and overdue payment reports
• Complete reservation notes tracking

The reservation module is integrated with the dynamic ProTourSQL database: linking reservations to direct client and travel agency profiles, vendor profiles, reporting, receivables and payables, general ledgers, inventory and products. This puts the power of managing your business at your fingertips. With a few clicks of the mouse, you can have the complete history (active reservations, past reservations, cancelled reservations, revenue, revenue received, and more) of any client in your database.

INVENTORY
ProTourSQL provides a complete and detailed inventory system. Every item you load into the system has an associated inventory tag. This inventory can be unlimited, free sell, or you can be part of an allotment. The system takes the complexities of a detailed inventory and breaks it down into an easy to manipulate calendar. Black out dates are added or removed as easily as clicking a button on the day(s) you wish to sell or stop selling. Some features include:

• Daily and period inventory
• Inventory per reservation item, hotel, airline, rental car, entertainment, cruise
• Easy to use calendars allowing you to manipulate inventory, black out dates and release dates (back to the vendor) on a daily basis

ACCOUNTING
ProTourSQL was designed on a comprehensive accrual based accounting system. The accounting system is driven from the reservation module and the data you record there. At any given moment you can easily find out how much business you have done with a particular vendor, how much money you have paid them and how much is still outstanding. Conversely, the system can also report how much business a particular client has given you, how much they owe you and how much they have paid you. Some of the Accounting features are:

• Automated revenue recognition
• Easy year end operations
• Batch receiving from Travel Agency and Direct Clients
• Vendor Deposits and Vendor Payables
• Travel Agency Commissions/Cancellation Refunds/Reservation Credits
• Batch print: Checks and Vouchers
• Batch print, fax or email Invoices directly to your clients
• Complete foreign currency management, including multiple international bank accounts
• Automatic detailed general ledger entries

ProTourSQL reports allow you to manage the day-to-day aspects of your business. It also allows you to analyze the over all picture: what marketing platforms have been successful, what tours have been profitable, what vendors sell the best, what Travel Agencies produce the most business.
