Entering and Tracking Booking Fee Information for a Quote
Each sales representative might be responsible for bookings for a region or a cluster of hotels. The representative can still book and refer customers to hotels outside of the representative’s immediate area of responsibility. Hospitality properties outside the representative’s region usually pay an agreed booking fee for the business.
Using the Fees view, the representative and event manager can enter the expected booking fees and then return to the view and complete the rest of the fields when the fees are collected.
This task is a step in Adding Details to an Event Quote.
