Supplier Chain Master/Master Supplier
Tourplan allows suppliers to have ‘subsidiary’ suppliers. This feature means for example, that Supplier Remittance Advices detailing transactions for subsidiary suppliers can be sent and the cheque made out to the head office/master supplier. In order for this feature to work, the system has to know which supplier is the ‘Master” and which are the subsidiaries. If the supplier being entered is a master, then click the check box ‘Supplier Chain Master’. If the supplier being entered is a subsidiary of a supplier which has already been entered and defined as a master, click the drop-down ‘Master Supplier’ list and select the master supplier from the list. If the supplier being defined is not a master or a subsidiary supplier, leave both fields blank.
Language
The language code determines which set of documents and messages templates will be displayed when sending messages to this supplier. These language codes must first have been setup in the Tourplan CodeMaint module. If foreign language documents or messages are not to be produced, then leave this field as unassigned.
Deleted
This flag can “hide” the supplier when bookings are made, so that consultants cannot use this supplier in a booking. The supplier is then only available for maintenance via the Creditors module.
