OTA_HotelResRQ

The response returns confirmation that the reservation has been successfully booked, and includes a confirmation number to identify the reservation, as well as the full details of the reservation.  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 HotelReservation node per requested reservation always returns regardless of success.  If the reservation does not successfully process, the node is empty.  The error messages returned correspond to the failed reservations – one error per failed reservation in the response.

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

There are two possible paths to create a reservation: straight to confirm or book, then confirm (2 Phase commit).  The first option creates the reservation and confirms it in one transaction.  The second option is a two-stage process that allows the reservation to be rolled back or committed using a follow-up message.  When granted access, partners have the ability to override the rate amounts found in the system.  Either the total amount of the reservation or daily rate amounts can be sent. The partner can optionally specify that the reservation is part of an existing or new itinerary.
