Country Specific - Portugal - Advanced Tax Handling for Deposits, Internal Tax Handling Updated
The following functionality is generically available but should be reviewed by properties in Portugal.
The Default Deposit Tax Room OPERA Control is enabled when the Advanced Tax Handling for Deposits OPERA Control is active and the Advanced Deposit Handling setting is 4 or 9.
The following functionality takes place for No Show, Cancellation, and Pre-stay Charges reservations:
In a scenario where the Deposit Tax charges offset one another and balance back to 0 (for example: A deposit is posted for 200.00, and a second deposit is posted for -200.00 to cancel the original deposit), no Deposit Transfer at check-in postings exist on the billing screen.
When the Auto Generate Credit Bill for Deposit upon Check-In OPERA Control is active, and the associated settings are updated, the following functionality takes place:
For reservations where a deposit exists, when accessing the Billing screen the first time for a No Show, Cancelled reservation, or the reservation is set for Pre-stay charges, a credit bill is automatically generated and the deposit tax postings (+ and - postings for the transaction code defined in Deposit Ledger Tax Transaction Code OPERA Control) are automatically moved to the pseudo room defined in the setting for Default Deposit Tax Room, when the room is checked in.
When the Auto Generate Credit Bill for Deposit upon Check-In OPERA Control is inactive, the following functionality takes place:
For reservations where a deposit exists, when accessing the Billing screen the first time for a No Show, Cancelled reservation, or the reservation is set for Pre-stay charges, the deposit charges (both “Deposit Transfer at Check In” and “Deposit Tax Transfer at Check In”) are posted on the Billing screen. No tax postings (+ and - postings for the transaction code defined in the Deposit Ledger Tax Transaction Code setting) are generated as no automatic credit bill is generated.
Existing behavior and the deposit transactions are posted to the Billing screen, when the Default Deposit Tax Room OPERA Control does not have a value (is blank/null) or the room is not checked in, and the Deposit transactions are posted to the billing screen.
Default Deposit Tax Room:
The Default Deposit Tax Room can be checked in and out manually. The following is a suggestion if you want the Default Deposit Tax Room to automatically be checked in after the room is checked out, using the functionality available in OPERA Cloud. The related Room Type used for the Default Deposit Tax Room should have the checkboxes selected for the Always Checked In checkbox selected. See Configuring Room Types. The Default Deposit Tax Room reservation should then be marked as Always Checked In with the checkbox selected. See Managing Reservation Payment Instructions. The Auto Check-In Pseudo Rooms after Check Out OPERA Control must also be active.
When the Default Tax Room is due out, it appears in the End of Day procedure for Departures not yet checked out. As the Default Tax Room should have a zero balance, this can be handled by selecting the “Check Out Zero Balance Departures” option. A copy of the folio is stored in Folio History.
When the Auto Check-In Pseudo Rooms after Check Out OPERA Control is active after the Zero Balance Departure has been checked out, the End of Day continues, and the reservation is automatically checked in again to the same room for the same number of nights as the original reservation checked out using Zero Balance Departure.
If the Default Tax Room has a balance, you must handle it manually.
In the Changes Log, an entry is created for "Pseudo Rooms Automatically Checked In During the End of Day Procedure."
This functionality allows flexibility for checking out the Default Tax Room reservation Daily, weekly, or monthly.

Advance Check In Updated
-
The ability to start and pause the auto check-in process is added to the I Want To . . . menu of Advance Check. See Managing Auto Check-in Processing.
-
An Auto Check In Start Time OPERA Control is added to define a daily start time for the auto check in process to commence. This setting is optional.
-
An Auto Check In End Time OPERA Control is added to define a daily end time for the auto check in process to stop. This setting is optional.
-
An Auto Check In Minutes before ETA OPERA Control is added to define a minute value to use to determine when the auto check in should be processed. This setting is optional.
-
An Exclude Room Conditions OPERA Control is added to define room conditions to exclude from the auto check in process. Reservations assigned to rooms with those room conditions are not auto checked in, even when they meet all other criteria (Room Status for example). This setting is optional.
If the process is manually paused during the day, the Start Auto Check In Process procedure starts it again the next day, either immediately or according to the Auto Check In Start Time OPERA Control.
The processor runs every five minutes and checks whether any of the advance checked-in reservations meet the criteria for auto check-in. If Auto Check In Start Time and Auto Check In End Time are defined, auto check in reservations only occur during those times or if a user has manually overridden the start time by using the action link the I Want To . . . menu of Advance Checked In.
The minute value before ETA (estimated time of arrival) is considered only during those times. It does not override the start time. For example, if the start time is set for 2 p.m., the ETA on the reservation is 1:30 p.m., and the setting is set to 30 minutes before the ETA, then the reservation is not auto checked in at 1:00 p.m. as configured. The first time the process runs after the configured start time, 2 p.m. (which could be up to 2:04 p.m.), it finds the reservation, checks the room status, and, if that meets the criteria, automatically checks in the reservation.
If a reservation is assigned to a room with a room condition selected in the Exclude Room Conditions OPERA Control, the reservation will be skipped when the auto check in is processed. Should the room condition be removed from the room, the reservation is auto checked in the next time the processor runs as long as the reservation meets all other criteria for auto check in.
See Auto Check In of Advance Checked In Reservations.

PROPERTY APIs
BLK Async - blockAllocationProcess Asynchronous Operation Added
A new asynchronous operation called BlockAllocationProcess is available in the Block Asynchronous API. This allows you to update a block's room grid, including inventory and rates. Using this operation ensures that updates for large blocks with multiple room types have time to process and update OPERA Cloud efficiently.
BLK Async - getBlockAllocationSummary Updated
When calling the getBlockAllocationSummary operation in the Block Asyncronous API, with request parameters startLastModifiedDate and endLastModifiedDate, block change log entries are also considered along with the block header update date. This ensures that all block changes are considered when calling this operation.
BLK - blockChangesByTimeDate Operation Added
A blockChangesByTimeDate operation is added to the Block API. You can search for blocks created, updated, and/or deleted within a maximum 3-day date range. The response includes block id, block code, array of external system and external system id, block start date, block end date, room status, catering status (if applicable), and last change date and time. If a block was created and deleted in the time period of your search, the query does not return this information. If a block is created and updated, the create information is returned. If a block is updated only, it returns the update. If a block is updated and deleted, it returns the delete.
BLK - getBlocks and putBlocks Updated
The getblocks and putblocks operations in Block (BLK) API are updated with an autoloadForecastGrid element.
BLK - get/put/removeCutoffSchedule Operations Added

The getProfileMembershipStatistics operation in the Customer Relationship Management API is updated with new query parameters (transactionDate, hotelId, confirmationNumber, limit, offset) and response body parameters (totalPages, offset, limit, hasMore, totalResults, count). This allows you to search membership transactions based on the transactionDate, hotelId, and confirmationNumber, along with paginations.

RSV - Reservation Operations Updated
The postReservationLinksByChain, postReservationLinks, and postReservationLinksByExtId operations in the Reservations API provide a new, optional request attribute for hotelId to define the property where a given reservationIdList belongs.
