Category Availability Check

Purpose


You can check any of the changes that you make to your web setup by using the Category Availability Check screen. This screen will show you the information that will come back through the Web API.

This option allows the users to see what categories are available between certain date ranges and locations. This can also be filtered down brand, driver age and campaign code. 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.
