Tracking Agency Specific Information 

As you work with accounts in Thynk you already know that accounts can be set up as a ‘company’ or as an ‘agency’.

Agencies are companies that typically book on other people’s or company’s behalf, and it’s important to track them as agencies.  Furthermore, there are many different types of agencies, e.g. retail agencies, wholesale agencies, OTAs etc.

Best Practices for Tracking Agency Information on an Account

  • In Thynk, the Account ‘Subtype’ field can be dependent on the Account ‘type’. If you wish to edit the drop down list of agency subtypes, please contact your admin, or director, as they have the permissions to make changes.

  • Please make sure that you select the correct Account Type because once you have attached bookings to this account, you will not be able to change the account type. You'll need to then contact your Thynk Admin for changes.

  • If you know what commissions the agency charges, you should enter them here. You can then have this commission pull into documents and reports.
