Upsell Items are shown on the booking page after the guest has selected their room or rooms.
The items can be used to show and allow booking of optional items and services or to add compulsory fee's like taxes and charges.
Up to 20 upsell items can be created per property.
=== Type of Item===
Upsell items of the following types can be created
==== Optional ====
The optional item type is selected by a check box on the booking page.
The Description can be entered in each language. The description can contain HTML tags to enhance the on screen display. These tags will not show in emails, rate description and invoice fields. You can add a picture which has been uploaded by adding the "Image Tag" from SETTINGS -> BOOKING PAGE -> PICTURES
==== Optional Quantity ====
The optional quantity type works like the optional type except the guest can select the quantity they would like using a selector.
==== Optional Percentage ====
The optional percentage is calculated and added to invoice when the item is selected.
==== Obligatory ====
The obligatory type is like an optional type except it is added automatically to the booking and cannot be removed.
An example would be a cleaning charge or fee.
==== Obligatory Percentage (Tax) ====
The obligatory percentage type is like the Optional Percentage type except it is always calculated and added to the booking and cannot be removed.
=== Order of the Items ===
The order the items are defined in the control panel is important for percentage calculations.
=== Voucher Codes ===
Voucher code discount values can also be affected by the order upsell items are created. Voucher code discounts are not applied to any items from or after the first compulsory percentage item.
=== VAT ===
Each item can be assigned it's own VAT rate if for example some items are VAT free or have discounted VAT rates.
Note: VAT is generally the tax already included in the price and should not be confused with a tax added by an obligatory percentage value.
