Overview

The Hotel Rate Amount Notification message notifies CRS of changes in the rates charged for a room of in a hotel.

When the rate amount of an active (bookable) rate plan changes an update is done through the Rate Amount Notification message, The Status Application Control is used to identify the inventory items and the rate plan (for room products) that the change in rate amount applies to.

The Hotel Rate Amount Message defines the amount of the base rate, as well as the maximum number of adults permitted in a room at the rate, along with the charges for additional adults and children. Tax amounts that apply to the rate are also communicated. In short, the Rate Amount Notification should convey all of the information needed by a reservation system to book a hotel room at the newly established rate amount.
