OTA_HotelResModifyRQ
  • OTA_HotelResModifyRQ — Sends a request message for a reservation modification.
  • OTA_HotelResModifyRS — Returns confirmation that the modification has been successfully booked, and includes a confirmation number to identify the reservation, as well as the full details of the modification. Warnings from business processing rules are returned if there was a non-fatal error. Errors are returned if the request did not succeed. To ensure ease in determining the cause of errors, one HotelResModify node per requested modification always returns regardless of success. If the modification was not successfully processed, the node is empty. The error messages returned correspond to the failed modification – one error per failed modification in the response.

A success element is added if any of the requested modifications are successful. If the success element is not present then all modifications failed. The errors element should be used to determine which modifications failed to process. Each error element specifies a record ID that is the zero based array ID of the modifications requested. For example, if three modifications are requested and the first two fail the record IDs included in errors would be 0 and 1. There are three ways to update profile information on a reservation.

  • Provide the Synxis CR CustomerNumber in the ProfileInfo/UniqueID node.
    • If customer is found, the customer's information updates.
    • If customer is not found, the iteration in the reservation updates. Please note that if multiple customers are on the reservation, it is possible that a different customer can be modified.
  • Provide the ID (email address) and PinNumber in the UserID node.
    • If customer is found, the customer's information updates.
    • If customer is not found, the iteration in the reservation updates. Please note that if multiple customers are on the reservation, it is possible that a different customer can be modified.
  • Resend all customer data not including the Synxis CR CustomerNumber or User ID/Password. This creates a new profile in the system and ensures that all customer information is correct. If a profile already exists for this customer, this results in a duplicate profile.

When granted access, partners have the ability to override the rate amounts. Either the total amount of the reservation or daily rate amounts can be sent. Modifications are not performed at the itinerary level. The partner must make modifications to the individual reservations that comprise the itinerary.
