Discount charge codes are an optional service that creates a separate line item in Voyager and on the general ledger for discounts applied to spaces in bookings and on contracts, amenities, and packages. This service allows you to view the total of discounts applied to these objects as a separate line item rather than as a lump sum under a single charge code.
This service uses the same charge codes already present in your Kube operator portal, or new ones can be added. For information on adding new charge codes, see Adding a charge code.
This article covers setting up discount charge codes.
NOTES:
International clients using this service should ensure the GL account tied to the charge code being used as a discount charge code is taxed the same way as the GL account for the original charge being discounted.
For example, if your charge code for rent corresponds to the Rent GL account, then your discount charge code should also correspond with the Rent GL account or another account that uses the same tax rate to ensure taxes are applied appropriately.
For more information on setting up international taxes, see Adding an international tax rate.
Depending on your assigned role and permissions, and the version of Kube your organization uses, some or all of these menus or services may not be available or displayed.
TIP: If you would like to enable the discount charge code service, please contact your account manager. Kube comes with preset GL accounts and charge codes that you can edit. For more information, see GL Accounts & Charge Codes.
To set discount charge codes
Select your Personal Profile in the top menu and select System Settings from the drop-down menu. The Operator Profile screen appears.
Select Accounting in the side menu and select the Account Settings tab.
Click the Edit button.
In the Discount Charge Codes section, add any charge codes to the available assets you would like to show discounts as a separate line item for.
Click Save.
NOTE: If the Discount Charge Code service has been enabled, but the discount charge codes have not been set up, Voyager and the GL accounting functions remain the same until the discount charge codes are set up through the above process.
