Contact Types allow the separation of contacts (Agent, Supplier and client) by category. A supplier could have different contacts for reservations, accounts, sales etc. An agent may have different consultants as well as accounts, sales, management etc. Contact types can be set up to reflect these requirements and then names and details entered for the different contacts can be inserted within the neccessary application.

If contact details are attached to the agent or supplier, and the message template is coded correctly, messages can be emailed directly from within bookings.
