Reservation Discounts

The reservation discounts feature enables you to apply a discount to a rate in a reservation. When you apply a discount to a rate, the discounted amount or percentage is applied to the original rate code attached to the reservation. The original rate code is the one initially attached to the reservation at the time it was created. It is considered the default rate for the reservation. The discount rate is attached to the reservation after the discount amount or percentage is applied. The original rate code must support discounts before a discount can be applied to the reservation.

You can enable a rate code to support discounts by selecting this option when creating the rate code. When applying a discounted rate to a reservation, you can enter a reason for the discount and enter either a discount amount or discount percentage, but you cannot enter both.
