Control Max Child Age use for Hotel Interfaces
Due to issues around max child age at hotels and how that interacts between Softrip and external hotel interfaces (HBSI, SYNXIS, DINGUS, HOTELBEDS, etc), Softrip is now adding a feature to tell the system how to treat children and when to consider the max child age loaded in Softrip against the service.
A new Default ID RecalcMaskForInterfaces has been introduced which allows the operator to determine which interfaces should check the max child age in order to correctly calculate the mask to be sent to that interface. Ex: If a user shops for AAC15 in Softrip and the max child age of the loaded service is 14, we may want to treat that child as an adult when sending to an interface like Dingus (sending a mask of AAA to them). If the interface code is loaded in to the Default Text of this Default record, the system will recalculate accordingly. If the interface code is not loaded in to the Default record, the system will send the mask as is to the interface and rely on their system to handle it appropriately.
Who it affects:
Anyone using External Hotel Interfaces on Net Reservations
HBSI, SynXis, Dingus, HotelBeds
Add Payment Button to Cart Header in Mobile View
A new button for “Add Payment” has been added directly to the shop cart header when in mobile view instead of being hidden in a menu. This will provide a better UI experience to the user and reduce confusion and/or questions to the operator.
This will only display to the user when the Total Due on the reservation is > 0.

Vacation Builder Summary to be anchored
The shop results summary (dates, passengers, total price, etc) will now be anchored to the top of the page and stay with the user as they scroll down the page. This will allow the user to always see their summary with the total prices as they add/remove services, reducing the need to scroll up and down the page to see how it affects their price.
