Editing Booking Address Information

Address information must be updated if you create a booking involving a client address or common location that has changed but has not been updated in Client Registration or Locations.

Before you begin

Trip Booking must be open. The Update Master Geocode property (found when Trip Booking is open, under File > Properties, on the Booking Screen tab) must be set to Yes.

About this task

Booking information can be edited for the Origin address, Destination address, or both.

For example, if Mrs. Jones calls to book a trip starting from her home but says her home address has changed since her last booking, her client record can be updated with the new information directly from Trip Booking.

Procedure

  1. Create a booking for the client.
  2. On the Origin or Destination tab, do one of the following:
    ToDo this
    Change a client address Select Client and in the field to the right, type the appropriate client address type. For example, CH.
    Change a common location Select Location and in the field to the right, type the name of the location. For example, High Park.
  3. Optional: Geocode the updated address.
  4. Click the Save button:
    Diskette.
    Warnings or error messages about other booking information may appear. For example, if the Origin or Destination location change, a The PU/DO address has changed, this may change the activities, continue? message will appear. This notifies that the change in address may change the trip’s activities.

    A Do you want to update the master address for DESTINATION with the new geostatus values? message appears.

  5. Do one of the following:
    ToDo this
    Update the address in the master file with the new address. Click Yes.

    The master file is found in Task > Clients if updating a client address and in Task > Locations if updating a common location.

    Save the booking with the new address and leave the master file address as is. Click No.

    The previous address continues to be used for future bookings.

Any additional warnings appear and the selected option is applied to the Trip Booking.
