Reconciliation formula

For majority of the tickets sold, the work flow is straight forward: A ticket is generated when a transaction is successful. Paid transaction total equals paid ticket amount. Similarly when a gift certificate or a paid in item is created, a paid transaction is generated, and the transaction total equals to the amount paid for the gift certificate.

Dashboard

The dashboard allows you to view a breakdown of your transactions, tickets, and journeys in addition to the tickets per channel. Similar to the previous iteration, you can view these quantities in a variety of date ranges: 12 months (annual), 12 weeks (quarter), 30 days (month), 7 days (week), today, and custom ranges. The bar graphs adapt to the selected duration - becoming more granular for shorter time frames i.e. will show by month for the annual selection and by day for the 30 day selection.

Confirmation Email how it works

Betterez uses an automated email system to handle confirmations and notifications related to ticket transactions. However, certain conditions and system behaviors affect whether an email is sent.

Move

In the case where transaction has one Customer but the ticket has a different passenger (ex: customer buys a ticket for a relative) if you change or move this ticket using a regular move, the Customer and Passenger will remain as in the original transaction. But if the ticket is moved using unrestrictive move, the resulting transaction will create a new customer with the passenger information provided. Example. Customer A with email a@a.com purchases a ticket for Passenger B with email b@b.com. If this ticket is moved using the unrestrictive move it actually creates a new customer with the Passenger B information. The new transaction will have then Passenger B both as customer of this transaction and passengerfor the ticket. So for unrestrictive move if customer and passengers are not the same, it actually creates a new customer with the passenger information.

Refunds report

This report shows information about any refunds. This can include both cancellations and ticket changes. Since the system allows to have several policies for these operations, this report will show the details for each transaction and the total amount refunded after any fees are applied.

Using promo codes

  • Our promo code setup is designed to respect the lowest hierarchy rule (i.e. Product -> Type -> Route) first within the list of constraints. For example: if a customer configures the promo to be of type 'Roundtrip', but also to apply for a specific route, then the discount will only apply to the leg of the journey that is within the designated route (when choosing a round-trip transaction) rather than applying to both legs. This is because the return leg is part of a different route, and therefore a new promo rule needs to be created to discount both legs.

Email setup

When logged into the back-office with a user (for example, your_user@betterez.com) that is simultaneously used as the email of the transaction (your-user@betterez.com), the user WILL NOT receive a confirmation email with the pdf ticket. The reason is that the system sees that the person logging in is the same customer completing the transaction. Since the person making the purchase has access to the back office, the system assumes that the user does not require the confirmation because he/she has access to the back-end of the system and will be able to find the transaction and ticket to print, if necessary.

Fare type combo box

This is an example of how a backoffice agent would find Fare Agreements in the UI after their fare agreements had been configured into the application. You are also able to add as many fare agreement fare types as possible in one transaction:

Route price buckets

Example: If a transport vehicle has a capacity of five seats and the fare bucket is set to discount the fee of the first 10% then the discount will not apply since 10% of five equals less than one person; if the fare bucket is set to discount the fee of the first 20% then the discount will apply since 20% of five equals one person. Finally, if the fare bucket is set to discount the fee of the first 20% but the booking if for two people then the discount is waived because it only applies to the total headcount of the transaction.
