Edit Rate Protection
Rate Code Protection allows a property to set an extra level of security for users who have the ability to edit rate code configurations. The Rate Code Protection screen displays the protection levels and an edit link.
Even though a user may have the ability to edit a rate code, Rate Code Protection allows a property to mark certain jumps or in some cases fields within a jump as "protected." When a jump or field is flagged as protected, only users with an override task have the ability to update the information in the selected jump or field.

Rate Ownerships
1 Custom Protection
Custom Protection applies to all rate codes that are generated in OPERA and whose ownership is not set to Central or Property. The Custom Protection is available for editing and by default allows for all fields to be editable by users with the applicable tasks granted to their user role. When a field or jump in Custom Protection is marked for protection, only users with the task for Override Custom Rate Protection are able to update the configuration for the selected field or jump.
2 External Protection
External Protection applies to any rate codes generated outside of OPERA. These rates codes can be created in an external Central Reservations System or Revenue Management system and then inserted in OPERA. For External Protection, all fields and jumps are flagged as protected since these rates are typically managed outside of the OPERA system. External Protection is not available for editing.
3 Property Protection
Property Protection applies to all rate codes that are flagged as owned by Property. The Property Protection is available for editing when the parameter for Rate Ownership Handling is active. By default, all fields are editable for users with the applicable tasks granted to their user role. When a field or jump in Property Protection is marked for Protection, users with the task of Override Property Rate Protection are able to update the selected jump or field.
4 Central Protection
Central Protection applies to all rate code flagged as owned by Central. The Central Protection is available for editing when the parameter for Rate Ownership Handling is active. By default, all fields are editable for users with the applicable tasks granted to their user role. When a field or jump in Central Protection is marked for Protection, users with the task for Override Central Rate Protection are able to update the selected jump or field.
