We have introduced the ability to link organizations and service areas to each other, allowing to automate visibility of tours.

Our existing managing organizations feature allows scoping the visiblity of bookings and tours to certain organizations - only drivers and organization managers on these organizations (in addition to explicitly added preferred drivers) will be able to see such bookings and tours.

This functionality is useful to scope access and operations to certain operational sub-units or subcontractors.

We have now extended this functionality with a built-in automation. You can now link certain organizations to specific service areas.

When organizations are assigned to the corresponding service area, we will now automatically set all related organizations as managing organizations when creating an empty tour or creating a tour by dispatching booking stops via these endpoints:

Consistent with our previously existing behaviour about managing organization inheritance, operations like dispatching booking stops into an existing tour do not further modify the managing organizations.

Support for managing this is also coming soon to our admin dashboard.
