When setting up a booking extra, you’ll need to decide whether the money collected goes to the owner or the agency.
You can configure this under:
Properties > Booking Extra > [select the booking extra name]
There are four ways to allocate booking extra income:
1. Set amount to the owner
- A fixed amount is paid to the owner, and the remainder goes to the agency.
- This can be the full value or just part of it.
2. Percentage split
- A set percentage (e.g., 20% + VAT) goes to the agency, with the rest allocated to the owner.
3. Full amount to owner
- The entire booking extra is allocated to the owner.
- Often used when the agency isn’t taking any share of this fee.
4. Full amount to agency
- The entire booking extra is allocated as agency income.
- Shows as gross in the owner payment tab, with VAT itemised in the statement.
Using the -2 setting with a selected supplier (owner) makes it easy to track all booking extras and ensures VAT is itemised correctly in owner statements.
- In this case, the "supplier" field actually refers to the owner.
- A separate section then appears in the owner payment tab, showing the amount allocated as “commission” (though technically it isn’t commission).
