Agent Category Availability Check
Purpose
You can check any of the changes that you make to your Agent setup by using the Category Availability Check screen. This screen will show you the information that will come back through the Agent API.
This option allows the user to see what categories are available between certain date ranges and locations for specific Agent Branches. This can also be filtered down, driver age, campaign code and brand.
Once the results have been run, you will also be able to see the selected category number of days available, rates, discounts, free days and free days amount. Further to this, any mandatory, optional and insurance fees will be shown.
