Connecting to third party distributors via the RMS Channel Manager provides the option on setup 'Use Source Travel Agent'.
This option will result in delivered reservations from these third parties listing the original Online Travel Agent in the Travel Agent field on the reservation instead of the Distributor as the Travel Agent.
The below table demonstrates how the Source Agent applies in RMS.
