A Permit Type defines the set of Unique Reference Numbers (URNs) for Police, Fire and Medical Services. In Manitou, these Entities are known as Authorities. Once defined, the URN types become part of the Manitou Customer record.
Currently, three Authority Types can be added and configured in the Permit Types section:
- Police

- Medical
