Operator X is assigned market code US-EA, which means that they are responsible for all reservations that are created under that market code.  Operator X wants to pull a list of all services that were marked as reported to cross check with their responses to confirm if there are reservations that need to be reported again.  Operator X can use both the market code and "supplier reported" field to obtain the accurate results.
