Information on the Rate Charge Description, how it is setup and where it displays in RMS.

Overview

The Rate Charge Description is the transaction description that will appear on the Reservation Account for that Rate Type.

A Rate Type is the charge description that identifies a pricing structure used by Reservations.

A Rate Type will only be available for selection on a reservation if it has been linked with a Rate Period and Rate Table using a Rate Lookup.

Changing the Rate Type Description on an existing Rate Type will only apply to transactions created after the changes have been saved.
