Travefy currently integrates with Tourplan's HostConnect API for importing Fastbook/FITs. There are several steps to complete to begin testing and using the integration:
1. IP White Listing
(Required by Tourplan)
Tourplan requires that Travefy's IP addresses be white listed to allow Travefy's system to connect with your Tourplan instance. Please contact to Professional@Travefy.com to request information on what IP addresses will need to be white listed for this step.
2. Tourplan: Setting for output via iCom/Internet/Distribution
(Required by Tourplan)
You will need to update EACH product or service in Tourplan that you want to import to Travefy to be set for "output via iCom/Internet/Distribution" in Tourplan. This is a requirement of Tourplan.
Please request assistance from your Tourplan support representative for assistance with this step.
3. Product Analysis Codes:
You will need to use the Product Analysis fields in Tourplan to set and define the Travefy event categories.
Find the Product Analysis 6 field and name it "Travefy Event Type". The list of options can be set
Product Analysis Fields in Tourplan Example:
Pro Tip: Before assigning product analysis codes and values for all of your products within Tourplan, set up a few products and do a test import into Travefy to ensure the mapping are working correctly.
Product Analysis Field Values
Use the below list of values to set in the drop down list. These values will then tell Travefy what type of Tourplan service the specifc service it is and what it should map to in Travefy. This field also acts as a "flag" to tell Travefy this item should be imported.
Type | Value | Web equivalent |
Unspecified |
| Event |
Flight | 0 | Flight |
Car Rental / Transfer | 1 | Transportation -> Car Rental |
Train | 2 | Transportation -> Rail |
Cruise | 3 | Cruise |
Bus | 4 | Transportation -> Other |
Hotel | 6 | Lodging |
Event | 9 | Activity |
Automobile | 10 | N/A |
Food/Drink | 11 | Food/Drink |
Info | 12 | Info |
4. Travefy Note Fields:
Tourplan allows their customers to create custom fields and service/option codes for services in Tourplan. You will create two specific fields
Supplier Note Code = TSI / Description = Travefy Supplier Itin-web
Tourplan users will use this note code to insert their Supplier Itinerary Information.
Product Note Code = TPI / Description = Travefy Product Itin-web
They will use this note code to insert their Product Itinerary Information.
Tourplan Clients set up their own Note Category Coding in their own systems to hold different information in different areas of Tourplan. These notes are set up as html notes and also need to be internet enabled to be available via iCom/Distribution
Pro Tip: Before assigning note codes and notes for all of your products in Tourplan, set up a few and do a test import into Travefy to ensure the mapping are working correctly.
5. Generating Agent (Debtor) Credentials in Tourplan
(Required by Tourplan)
To import bookings from Tourplan, you must use credentials as an agent or debtor accessing Tourplan's system.
Create a Test Debtor/Agent as below – Debtor Code: "TRAVEFY"
You need to select ONLINE tab:
Check the box for INTERNET ACCESS and Insert a LOGIN / PASSWORD. The Login / Password must be unique for each debtor account you set up.
You will need to do this for all of your Booking Agents/Debtors.
Please contact your Tourplan support representative for questions or assistance in generating debtor/agent credentials.
