Source records
Unmodified source records remain distinguishable from consolidated travel entities.
Turn fragmented source data into a controlled travel record.
A shared structure connects travel, booking and enterprise information for your business processes. TD pool consolidates travel data from connected TMCs, GDSs, OBTs and direct sources; enterprise data supplements it within the approved scope.
Clear definition
The shared data foundation within the Travel Data Suite connects related travel and enterprise information and provides purpose-specific views for reporting, Corporate Security, approvals, communication and target systems. TD pool consolidates travel data from connected sources and passes it to this data foundation.
