There are many instances where one Package will be identical to another with an exception or two. Rather than having to build each from scratch, you are able to use the “Duplicate” function; another huge time saver.
You will find the Duplicate button at the top left of the Main / Itinerary tab in the Package Detail view.
The duplication script will, in a matter of seconds, create an exact copy of the Package for you, which will be tagged with the word “Duplicate” in the name field. Change the name as necessary, and then use the “Replace” or “Delete” buttons on the Itinerary tab to swap out or completely eliminate Package Elements that don’t belong.
A common application of this process will be to create a “core package” that includes all services that constitute the basic tour. Once that itinerary is built, you are able to duplicate the Package and strip out or add services that you need to provide to the tour manager accompanying the group. Once that Package is complete, duplicate it to account for the services that the driver requires.
DEMO: Tour & Package Duplication in TourTools
We will be updating this video to demo the process in v5 instead of v4 – but the process is very similar!
