Can my travel agency software pass my bookings into my accounting software so I am not entering everything twice?
Yes, in most cases your booking figures can reach your accounting software without you typing them in twice, though how smoothly that happens depends on which accounting package you use and what your plan includes.
The simplest method, and the one that works with almost any package, is an export. You choose a date range, download your bookings, sales, supplier costs and your own service fees as a file, and import that file into your accounts. Many agencies do this once a week or once a month and it only takes a few minutes. The other method is a direct connection, where the two systems talk to each other on their own and every confirmed booking creates a sales entry on the accounting side. That is only possible if your accounting package allows outside systems to connect to it, and it needs a setup job first, because someone has to decide which ledger each kind of entry should land in, such as flights, hotels, taxes and your commission.
It is worth being clear about the limits before you plan around it. A link like this copies the numbers across, it does not do your accounting for you, so refunds, part payments, cancellation charges and supplier credit notes still need a human eye. Entries also follow the booking date, which may not match the month your supplier invoices you, so your accountant will still reconcile at period end.
The best next step is to ask your accountant which package you are on and whether it accepts connections from other systems, then tell us, and we can confirm whether a regular export or a direct link suits you better and what the setup would involve.
