How does the pricing engine work (net, gross, commission and markup)?
Net = price paid to supplier
Gross = sell price to traveller
Markup = % added to Net to reach Gross
Commission = an alternative display of the same margin
You can switch between Markup %, Commission %, and Margin $ via the cog icon. When setting up a supplier choose Net, Gross, or Both as your margin type to determine how the engine calculates the remaining values.
