? Permission levels

Tour Operators will be able to view all data. The data visible to Marketplace Partners depends on the permission level granted on that particular channel (set by the channel operator when they connect). Marketplace Partners granted permission level 2 or above will be able to see most of the booking information plus basic customer details. Marketplace Partners granted permission level 3 will be able to see a bit more information on each customer including age/dob information plus a breakdown of payments made on the booking.

Remember, Marketplace Partners will only be able to see bookings that have their agent record set (i.e. either the booking or the customer came to the Operator via the Marketplace Partner).
