Search For Existing Pax
The Pax CRM stores each customer name with their unique ID number. Individual passengers can be linked to group names. Pax search - enables results for existing passenger records using various filter criteria. Once located, passenger details can be edited or deleted.
This procedure identifies the steps required to find an existing passenger.
There are two options when searching for existing passengers.
- The first is if you know surname of the passenger, and list of passengers matching the searched name will return. The forename field will enable if the surname field is not empty.
- The second is a more advance search offering a filtered selection based on contact details or a range of pax name options.
