The purpose for Data Request Utility is to have data synched from OPERA PMS to the ORS, initiated from ORS side. Data Request differs from the Resync Utility. In the Resync Utility it requests data from the external system, not sending data to the external systems from ORS. Offered requests are Reservations, Blocks, Rates, Packages, Profiles, key Configuration Items, Datamart and Inventory Items. Multiple modules can be flagged for requests together just by selecting the check box by each and populating the request criteria columns. Configuration responses populate the global template when required and the Property level.
Permissions are required to access this utility; at login provide the interface id and property. For the Reservations and Block requests there are three options available. They can be selected by the option button to the left of the date fields. The other modules offer one date range criteria to use.
To initiate any Data Request select the module or modules, Start and End Criteria and select Synchronize button.
