# Suppliers and catalogs

> Add the airlines, hotels, DMCs and insurers you work with and their price lists, and quote from them in seconds.

Operations · [All help](https://vuela.cloud/en/docs.md)

Every item on a proposal points at a **supplier**: the airline, hotel, DMC or insurer that sells you the service. Their **catalogs** are their price lists, and they save you typing the same hotel every time you quote it.

## Create a supplier

1. Go to **Suppliers** and press **New supplier**.
2. Type the name, choose the **Kind** (airline, hotel, DMC, cruise, insurance, transport or other) and add their email, phone and notes: rates, contacts, booking quirks.
3. Press **Create supplier**.

You can also create one on the fly while adding an item to a proposal, with **+ New supplier…** in the list.

## The supplier list

At the top you see how much you've booked with suppliers, your average margin, how many services are coming up and how many are **Unconfirmed**.

The table shows, per supplier, their catalogs, how many trips they're on, their next service, how much you've booked and your margin. Sort by **Most booked**, **Best margin** or **Next service** to see who you work with most and who you earn most with.

## Catalogs

A catalog is a price list: "Summer 2027 rates", for example.

1. Open the supplier and press **New catalog**.
2. Give it a name, a **Valid until** date and a description.
3. Press **Create catalog**, then **Add product** for each room, leg or tour, with its kind, description and **Costs** (one per currency, if you quote in more than one).

When a price list expires, press **Archive**. It stops showing up, but isn't deleted.

## Import a price list with AI

Got the price list in Excel? Don't type it in.

1. On the supplier, press **Import with AI**.
2. Upload the file (.xls, .xlsx or .csv) and press **Extract catalog**.

An AI reads every sheet, skips the terms and conditions, and creates the catalog with all its products and prices. It usually takes a few seconds. Check the result: imported products are marked **New**.

## Quote from a catalog

When adding an item to a proposal, type part of its name under **Name**. Vuela searches all your catalogs and, when you pick a product, fills in the supplier, kind and cost in the trip's currency. All that's left is the price.

## History with a supplier

On the supplier's page, **Booked with this supplier** lists every service you've bought from them, with its cost and trip.
