Multiple Reservations

Multiple Reservations with one Credit Card Charge

Top Previous Next

The AL-Pro Web Portal supports up to 9 reservations processed and charged with one charge on a credit card.

In order to support multiple payments, reservations created must use the concept of :masterreservation.

This means that when you create reservations using als_insert_reservation.cgi your first reservation created becomes the master reservation. The value returned from the call to als_insert_reservation.cgi is then used as the masterreseration param for subsequent als_insert_reservation.cgi calls.

Example:

1. reservation gets created: als_insert_reservation.cgi?date=2007-10-15&lastname=Lohan&firstname=Lindsey . This reservation creates Rese # 276977.

2. next reservation:als_insert_reservation.cgi?date=2007-10-15&lastname=Lohan&firstname=Lindsey&mastereservation=276977

Now with up to 9 reservations with one defined as the master, you are ready to create one credit card payment for all of the reservations.

rescount= The Number of reservations passed in

Existing Params:

reservation- still required and should be the master reservation

amount-still required and is the total amount to be charged

New Params support up to 9 reservations

rescount- The total of number reservations

amount1..amount9

res1..res9

1. If Rescount>0 then a check is done to insure that all the amount1,amount2.. add up to the amount

2. a check is done to insure each reservation is valid and a subreservation of the master.

Reservation # 276977 with a total of 44.48

Reservation #276978 with a total of 102.24

Grand Total is : 146.82

ResCount is 2.
