# Data mapping of elements Property additions are denoted by an Action of “Add” in the SOAP header. When a property is being added to the HCD, it must contain a minimum required set of data elements in order to be considered valid. The following tables describe the required, optional, and conditional data requirements. If the resulting property record does not contain the minimum set of data, an error will be returned to the client, and the property information will not be added. Property updates are denoted by an Action of “Update” in the SOAP header. When a property is being updated in the HCD, the resulting property record must contain a minimum required set of data elements in order to be considered valid. If the resulting property record does not contain this minimum set of data, an error will be returned to the client, and the property information will not be updated. Property information can be logically broken down into several categories, each of which can be updated independently. The following sections define the message structures required to update these categories. #### **Basic property information** Although OpenTravel allows unlimited occurrences of each element within the OTA\_HotelDescriptiveContentNotifRQ message, ENTERPRISE CONNECTIVITY has elected to set limits for many of these elements. Unless specified under the Usage column below, ENTERPRISE CONNECTIVITY only allows one instance of each element per property message. Note that Level 1 & 2 elements and attributes are only addressed in this section and will not be repeated in subsequent sections.

#### HotelStatus and HotelStatusCode There is a hierarchical relationship between the HotelStatus attribute and the HotelStatusCode attribute of the HotelInfo element. The HotelStatusCode attribute defines whether the property is active, inactive, test, preopening, or deleted. This attribute drives whether a property can be included in search results. The HotelStatus attribute defines the bookable status of the property for online channels. This attribute drives whether a property can accept online reservations. The following table illustrates this relationship. |


| **Bookable** | **Non-Bookable** | | -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Active** | Property will be included in search responses and can receive online reservation requests. | Property will be included in search responses but can NOT receive online reservations. | | **Inactive** |

Property will not be returned in search responses and will NOT be allowed to receive online reservation requests.

“Inactive” overrides “Bookable”.

| Property will not be returned in search responses and cannot receive online reservation requests. | | **Deleted** |

Property will not be returned in search responses and will NOT be allowed to receive online reservation requests.

“Delete” overrides “Bookable”.

| Property will not be returned in search responses and will NOT be allowed to receive online reservation requests. | | **Test** | Property will NOT be returned in search responses but WILL be allowed to receive online reservation requests. | Property will NOT be returned in search responses and will NOT be allowed to receive online reservation requests. | | **PreOpening** |

Property WILL be included in search responses and can receive online reservation requests.


NOTE: It will be up to the hotel CRS to disallow availability and booking requests that are prior to the opening date of the property.

| Property will be included in search responses but can NOT receive online reservation requests. | #### Schema design view
