Duplicate Itineraries, Suppliers and More

The Duplicate functionality lets you copy several objects within Tourwriter. You can copy your Itineraries, Suppliers, Products and Options. The functionality lets you use an itinerary or a supplier as a template and base other itineraries or suppliers around it.

Duplicating Itineraries

The option to duplicate an itinerary is available on the Itinerary list.

1. Navigate to the Itineraries tab in the navigation bar.
2. Select the Options menu (three dots) at the end of the row for the itinerary you wish to copy and choose Duplicate from the dropdown list.

3. Overtype the name of the copied itinerary on the Duplicate itinerary window. The name defaults with the term “Copy of” being appended before the original itinerary name.

4. Enter the start and end dates for the copied itinerary.
5. Select Refresh all unlocked rates to move the itinerary Booking prices to a relevant rate period spanning the itinerary start & end date.

Note: Locked rates are not auto-refreshed. To refresh rates on a copied itinerary with locked rates, unlock the pricing in the Manage > Pricing section and select Update items.

6. Select Create duplicate to create a copy of the itinerary. The copied itinerary appears on the top of the list.
