An overview of resrequest.com      
 



Resrequest is a reservation application designed to create, edit and manage reservations online and/or offline. Resrequest can process reservations in different environments, including: within a central reservations office, on the Internet and at remote locations (such as camps or resorts). Resrequest can operate permanently connected, which means all users access current information, and it can operate offline. Operating offline, Resrequest easily transfers information across all environments ensuring that users see and work with the most up-to-date information. With Resrequest reservations can be made and changed 24 hours a day from any location with Internet access.

Any users or web-surfers can access Resrequest including: staff working for the travel concern (internal users), agents/tour operators (external users) and public users. Each user has set access rights, which means they can only access information and perform functions allocated by the system administrator.
