Contacts are defined as either 1) Travel Agents that are associated to a Travel Agency (customer) or 2) Passengers that exist on a reservation within the Softrip application.

Info

Please note that in this context, Travel Agents are distinct from your organization's Salespeople. Travel agents refer to contacts associated with the travel agency you collaborate with.

All of this information for the Customers and the Contacts is stored within the Softrip CRM.  Here users can create, manage, store, and update all pertinent information all in one location.  This includes information such as commission profiles, commission details, reservation history details, previous special requests, and more.
