    Lookup Tables are user created lists that can be used to record and report on additional information for reservations.

    A Market Segment can be assigned to a Company, Travel Agent, Rate Type, Discount, or Online Channel Connection.


    Company, Travel Agent, Reservation and Rate are default System Labels that can be customised.
