The room’s status will only change should it be higher on the room status hierarchy based on the property’s active application rooms management functions.

 

Example:  Should the property have both the Inspected and Pickup functions active, the Housekeeping Room Status hierarchy begins at the top with Inspected, then Pickup, then Clean, and finally Dirty.  Should the room be in Inspected status and the Cancellation occurs, the room will be changed to Pickup if parameter value is Pickup.  If the room’s status was Dirty prior to the cancellation occurring, the room’s status would not change as Dirty is of a lower status than Pickup.
