TAD2000 The Travel Agents Choice
TAD2000 is a computer system, which has been developed to run in Windows using Microsoft Access
as its platform. It is a system, which has been designed in full consultation with a number of
travel agents, which has led to it being comprehensive, flexible, and easy to use.
It allows multiple tour operators to be added to each booking (ideal for those tailormade holidays),
detailed itinerary production, full invoice and receipt printing, along with a range of letters
and forms make it easy to control your information and that given to your customers. It has
facilities to calculate your insurance and BSP costs, and will produce monthly reports on what
is due. By entering details of the payments paid out the system can produce a variety of reports
to analyse your business to help with banking, analysis of payments, volume of business booked,
actual business figures regarding files and their profitability, business figures by operator
and more.
