Travel workspaces are built around one fact that separates them from every other vertical: you resell someone else's inventory. A resort sells its own rooms; an agency buys a seat, a bed or a visa slot from a supplier and sells it on. Every line therefore carries a net payable to a supplier and a sell price to the customer, frequently in different currencies, and the business is the margin between them.
If you picked Travel & Tourism at signup, the travel module pack is already enabled — refine it anytime under Enable and manage modules.
The three travel modules
| Module | What it does |
|---|---|
| Travel Catalog | Tour packages, Umrah and Hajj programmes, visa services, and the dated departures with tiered capacity that travellers actually book. |
| Travel Bookings | Booking files, the enquiry inbox and quoting screen, the visa desk, and margin reporting. |
| Travel Portal | Your public storefront at /trip/your-subdomain — browse, book, upload documents, track a booking. |
Turn Travel Portal off and the back office keeps working; you simply have no public storefront. That split is deliberate — an agency can run its catalog internally before publishing anything.
A typical day
- A traveller books an Umrah departure on the portal, or sends an enquiry for a flight.
- Enquiries land in Travel Bookings → Enquiries; a consultant prices the lines and sends a quote with a payment link.
- Payment confirms the booking, raises the invoice and receipt, accrues what you owe the supplier, and emails the voucher.
- Visa applications move to the Visa Desk, where documents are collected and the appointment and decision are tracked.
- Travel Reports shows margin by line type and by supplier, and how full your committed departures are.
Where to go next

- Run the visa desk
- Track margin and supplier payables
- The traveller portal
Setup worth doing on day one
- Map Accounts Payable and Cost of Sales in Accounting Settings, so supplier costs are accrued rather than appearing only when you pay. See Track margin and supplier payables.
- Add your airlines, hotels and DMCs as vendors, so margin can be reported by supplier.
- Fill in required documents on each visa service — that list becomes the visa desk checklist automatically.
