Cancellation Policies Now Display Correctly Across the Booking Engine
Cancellation policies are now displayed accurately throughout the entire booking journey, respecting the hierarchy in which they are configured in the PMS.
Previously, the IBE did not consistently honour the cancellation policy hierarchy, meaning lower-level policies (such as those set at the Rate Type level) could display even when a higher-level policy had been configured to override them. This affected the rates page, the confirmation page, and the confirmation email.
The IBE now correctly applies the following hierarchy, with higher-level policies always taking precedence:
- Control Panel
- Rate Table
- Rate Period
- Rate Type Property Rule
- Derived Rate Type
- Rate Type
Guests will now see the correct cancellation policy at every step — from browsing rates through to their confirmation email.
