GPTE Grouping

GPTE Grouping

This functionality is currently available via administration panel.

One and the same service can have different names and be provided by different suppliers. As a result, this service by default can be displayed in the search results as several different services. For example, you have a direct contract with the Hilton hotel located in Prague. However the same hotel is sold as a part of the agreement with HotelsPro, Hotelbeds and Tourico suppliers.

You want all the variants for this hotel to be displayed as one offer, when searching hotels in Prague.

By using grouping this becomes possible.

On the Grouping tab you can configure the conditions of displaying the groups of services:

  1. Go to the contract, tab Grouping.

  2. Click Edit to switch to editing mode.

  3. Select one of the following options:

    1. Show all offers in group: in this case all services that are included in the group will be shown together.

    2. Remove duplicating offers and show only the cheapest among them: in this case, only the cheapest offer for each room type is displayed (e.g. if both GTA and Tourico have room type SNGL Standard and Tourico provides the cheaper one – only this room will be shown).

  4. Define what description you would like to see for hotels

    1. Description of cheapest hotel in group.

    2. Use custom hotel description for group of hotels; if custom hotel description is missing - use description of the cheapest hotel in a group.

    3. Use custom hotel description for group of hotels; if custom hotel description is missing - do not show the whole hotel group on search results.

  5. Specify whether you would like to adjust markup for your self-operated hotels depending on prices from suppliers:

    1. Click the Adjust mark up check box.

    2. Set the values for mark up adjustment:

      1. Click either of the buttons to calculate the values in per cents or in currency units.

      2. Specify the value.

  6. Click Save.

In the form, configure the conditions of displaying hotel description and adjust the mark up for self-operated products.
