Subject to access granted by Vendors you can book Accommodation within RoomBoss.
Order Type
RoomBoss uses 3 different Order Types, these are Internal, Request and Reservation:
An Internal Order is entered by you and exists only within your account. It will not be sent to the Vendor unless you change it to a Request.
A Request Order is entered by you and is sent to a Vendor, this is not a confirmed booking unless the Vendor changes it to a Reservation.
A Reservation Order is a booking that has been confirmed by a Vendor.
Depending on the access offered by the accommodation Vendor you may have access to make a confirmed booking online (a Reservation) or make a request to book which requires subsequent confirmation by the Vendor to become a confirmed booking (a Request).
The process to make a booking Request or Reservation are the same and the Order Type is displayed during the process.
