Available PCM INI Settings
INI Settings can be enabled for all users or (where permitted) for specific users.
BKG_CANCEL_STATUS (All or Per User)
The status that must be attached to a PCM before it can be deleted. (see PCM Status).
BKG_CANCEL_WITH_PENALTY_STATUS (All or Per User)
This setting specifies the Status assigned to a PCM when it is cancelled and the PCM has one or more services that will attract cancellation penalties. If no cancellation penalties are involved, the BKG_CANCEL_STATUS setting is used.
CALCULATE_SCU_FOC (All Users)
This setting indicates whether Second Charge Unit FOCs (i.e., Stay/Pay deals) should be used in PCMs.
CONSULTANT (All Users or Per User)
Used to link the Consultant’s Tourplan login name (see Create User ) with the Consultant's Initials (see Consultant).
COST_SELL_OVERRIDE_SYNC (All Users)
This setting determines if the sell price in a service line cost screen is automatically updated when the cost price is overridden.
The options are:
-
(Y) Yes, always overwrite the sell price when the cost value is overridden. (Default setting)
-
(N) No, do not automatically overwrite the sell price when the cost value is overridden.
DEFAULTPAXRANGES (All or Per User)
The values set in this string can be used to populate the Pax Ranges grid with default numbers when creating a new PCM. e.g., 10+1+1+0, 15+1+1+0 would populate the first pax range column with 10 Pax, 1 Escort, 1 Driver, 0 Guides. The second pax range column would have 15 Pax, 1 Escort, 1 Driver, 0 Guides etc.
DEFAULT_AGENT (All or Per User)
Can be used to automatically default a specific agent into the PCM header based on the user's login name.
DEFAULT_BRANCH (All or Per User)
Can be used to automatically default a specific Branch into the PCM header based on the user's login name.
DEFAULT_DEPT (All or Per User)
Can be used to automatically default a specific PCM Department into the PCM header based on the user's login name.
DEFAULT_PCM_NAME (All or Per User)
Can be used to default a standard PCM name—e.g., Quote Reference. The value in the PCM_COUNT setting (below) can be used to append a numeric value to the default name—e.g. Quote Reference 125.
DEFAULT_SUBCODE (All or Per User)
Used to set a default foreign currency conversion sub-code (see Currency Subcode) into the PCM header.
DUPLICATE_NAME (All or Per User)
This setting determines what action will be taken when a duplicate PCM name is entered. The options are Yes (allow duplicate names), Warning (warn a duplicate exists, then allow), No (deny duplicate names).
EDIT_DATEENTERED (All or Per User)
This setting allows or denies the PCM Date Entered field to be accessed and the date changed. (Y/N).
INSERTPCM_MERGE (All Users)
When inserting an existing PCM into another PCM, there are two options. One is to insert the PCM at a specific day/sequence which will move any existing services following that Day/Sequence to the end of the PCM being inserted. The second is to 'Merge' the PCM being inserted so that the day/sequence numbers of it fit around the day/sequence numbers of the host PCM. This setting enables the default to be set to Merge when set to (Y)es or to Insert when set to (N)o.
PCM_COUNT (All or Per User)
Used in conjunction with the value set in DEFAULT_PCM_NAME (above) as a suffix to default the PCM name. The number increments automatically.
PCM_ENQUIRY_STATUS (All Users)
This setting allows security levels to be paired with PCM Status Codes. If the user has a security level less than the security value set for the PCM Status, then the application is forced into Enquiry only mode.
PCM_RETAIN_VCH_DEFAULT (All or Per User)
The default setting for the checkbox 'Retain Voucher Text' during Service Substitution. (Y/N)
STATUS (All or Per User)
The default initial status of the PCM.
