Trip Template and Trip Lists
Trip Template
A trip template is used when a trip may need to be booked several times for the same traveler or different travelers. An
example of this might be a conference or a business trip. The template may be made available to anyone in the
company, certain selected users, or it may remain private.
Prior to creating a trip template, you must book a trip in ENTERPRISE. When the reservation is confirmed, the reserved
itinerary is displayed.
To create a trip template from scratch, first save one from a trip (see Creating a Trip Template, below). The example
below shows a booked itinerary that will be saved to a template.

Alternate Travel Policy within the copy trip process
The next step in the copy process is to evaluate for Alternate Travel Policy (Trip Purpose). ENTERPRISE will
compare the travel policy applied to the original itinerary with that of the selected traveler.
Note: This step is only a consideration when multiple travel policies are applicable to your policy branch(s). If
your ENTERPRISE setup does not include the Alternate Travel Policy function, you may skip this section and
continue reading below (Copy Itinerary).
If Alternate Travel Policy rules are applicable, the travel policy of the original trip will be compared against the default
travel policy of the selected traveler.

If the selected traveler is on the same travel policy as the original itinerary and does not have access to alternate
travel policies, the copied trip will utilize the travel policy of the selected traveler and the original traveler
(itinerary). The user is taken directly to the Copy Itinerary page.

If the selected traveler is not on the same travel policy as the original itinerary and does not have access to
alternate travel policies, the user will be prompted to continue using the selected traveler’s policy.
 Prompt text (Custom Text ID 110035): The selected traveler does not have access to the travel policy
applied to the original itinerary. Click YES to apply the current travel policy of the selected traveler. Click
NO to return to the original itinerary.
If the user selects YES, the trip will be searched using the policy of the selected traveler and the user is taken to
the first Copy Itinerary page.
If the user selects NO, the prompt will close, the Copy Itinerary tab will close, and the user will be returned to the
original itinerary.

If the selected traveler is not on the same policy as the original itinerary and does have access to alternate travel
policies, which include the policy of the original itinerary, the user, will be prompted to continue using the policy of
the original itinerary.
 Prompt Text: (Custom Text ID 110036): The selected traveler is on a different travel policy than the travel
policy applied to the original itinerary. Click YES to accept the travel policy of the original itinerary. Click
NO to apply an alternate travel policy.
If the user selects YES, the trip will be searched using the policy of the original itinerary and the user will be then
be taken to the first Copy Itinerary page.
If the user selects NO, the user will be presented with available alternate policies for selection. Once the user
accepts an alternate policy, the Copy Itinerary tab will display.

If the selected traveler is not on the same policy as the original itinerary and does have access to alternate travel
policies, which include the policy of the original itinerary, the user, will be prompted to continue using the policy of
the original itinerary.
 Prompt Text: (Custom Text ID 110037): The selected traveler is on a different travel policy than the travel
policy applied to the original itinerary. The original travel policy is not available for the selected traveler.
Click YES to accept the default travel policy for the selected traveler. Click NO to apply an alternate

Availability for air, car, and hotel is checked. An icon will be present if an exact match is found.

AIR: The system checks availability of the same flights and the same carrier as the original itinerary. If this flight
cannot be found, a flight with the next closest departure time will be selected. ENTERPRISE will sell the
requested cabin and price itinerary as determined by the applied travel policy and user preferences in order to
obtain the best available fare.

CAR: The system checks availability for the same car company, car type (or type requested by the selected
traveler), and transmission type of the original itinerary. If a match cannot be found for these field types,
ENTERPRISE will select the next best option based on the selected traveler’s applied travel policy and user
preferences.

HOTEL: The system checks availability for the same hotel property code as the original itinerary. ENTERPRISE
will attempt to match the room code to get the same nightly rate. If a match cannot be made on either the hotel
chain code or booked room type, ENTERPRISE will select the next best room option based on the selected
traveler’s applied travel policy and user preferences
If the hotel from the copied itinerary is not available, ENTERPRISE will attempt to sell a room from an alternate
hotel that best matches the user’s travel policy and default hotel travel preferences. This logic will not be
matching for a hotel property nearest to the hotel of the original itinerary.
When an exact match is found for the copied itinerary, an icon will be placed on the itinerary element. If an exact
match was not found, a warning will be displayed instead of the matching icon.

If an eligible itinerary is selected to copy and a parking segment is present, all itinerary items will copy except the
parking.

A copied itinerary will be displayed with the new title of Copied Itinerary, Not yet reserved. The user may make
modifications, view alternate travel options, choose seat assignments, etc. from this screen. The trip is not
confirmed until the user selects to Reserve or Purchase.
