AX Travel in Microsoft Dynamics™ AX
AX Travel is fully integrated with Microsoft’s Dynamics AX system, the best and most extensive ERP platform from Microsoft. Among other things, Microsoft Dynamics AX offers a financial system, CRM, HR, Project, SharePoint Portal, Questionnaire, and more.
Datacon has developed and refined its AX Travel solution based on Microsoft’s standard system, and the solution features all the specific functionality necessary to run a well consolidated travel agency.
Microsoft develops the newest technology for all the standard functionalities in the system, so that we can concentrate on the things we do best: all the aspects that are specific for the travel industry.
Many travel agencies already operate with a range of Microsoft’s products such as Microsoft Office, Windows XP or Vista, and some also have Windows servers and SQL databases. Interconnecting AX Travel and Microsoft Dynamics AX with existing Microsoft solutions adds an additional dimension to the business. It gives the business a great deal of advantages such as synchronized data.
AX Travel is a flexible business management system and it fits most travel agencies no matter type or size. Many years of experience in the travel industry has made us capable of developing a solution to the travel industry that ensures an optimized process flow, and thereby more optimized and automated working procedures. This is possible because we deliver one complete and fully integrated solution.
This also gives an advantage when your business employs new staff members, since they only have to be trained to master one system and they will be productive for the company much faster. Depending on the travel agency, it is even possible for the sales persons to remain in the Global Distribution System (GDS) and through simple input be able to create e-mails, invoices, itineraries, and vouchers and all can be sent directly to the customer.
Experience tells us, that many travel agencies not only focus on product and price but they supplement it by viewing the whole mid and back-office part to secure a more streamlined business. This is where AX Travel becomes valuable to many travel agencies because it can replace all the existing IT systems and reduce administrative resources that can be used for sales promoting activities instead, which results in higher earnings and profits.
AX Travel is a GDS neutral solution, so regardless of which booking system is used, it can be integrated in a way that permits automated imports of GDS input.
