A Saved Search Comes Back with Every Condition

A sticky note that only names the hotel means asking the whole conversation again tomorrow.

Saved hotel searches in the back office now bring back their full conditions: guests and children’s ages per room, nationality, residence, currency, and customer and supplier scope. Operators can re-check prices, pick rooms and continue to checkout from the record, and old prices never pose as new ones.

What is saved is the conditions: rooms, guests, nationality and currency. The old price is dropped, and checkout only follows a fresh price check.

An operator runs a hotel search for a client in the back office, saves it, and plans to follow up tomorrow. Until now the record kept only a summary and hotel IDs. Reopening it meant asking again how many guests share each room, how old the children are, where the guests come from and which currency they pay in, with plenty of room to end up answering a different question.

What a saved search really has to keep is the conditions, not the prices of that moment. Hotel prices move all the time. Showing yesterday’s prices as they were looks convenient but nudges people to book on stale numbers, while keeping neither prices nor conditions leaves the re-check to memory.

Saved records now carry the full conditions: every room with children’s ages, nationality, residence, currency, and the customer and supplier scope. Opening a record loads only basic hotel details; re-checking prices is an explicit action, after which the existing room table and checkout take over. Change a condition and the old prices are dropped at once, and a missing price is never filled with some other amount. Saved conditions are not permissions either: every price check is authorised again for the current account.

Older records that never stored a customer or supplier scope cannot recover it, so the screen says the search will run on the current scope instead of pretending to remember. Continuing from a saved search goes through the ordinary checkout and leaves the original quote’s status unchanged. Treating a continued search as a formal conversion, and the order attribution that would follow, is outside this change.
