P08 Booking Modification (Dates, Room Type, Occupancy) - Modeling Notes

Date: 2026-05-18

Process intent

Model the realistic post-booking change workflow where guests request changes to dates, room category, or occupancy and the hotel must apply policy checks, availability checks, repricing, and possible guarantee delta handling.

Participants

  • Hotel National Zermatt
    • Reservations
    • Revenue Management
    • Operations / Front Office
  • Payment Provider
  • Guest

Distinct process behavior

  • DMN policy gate before inventory work (Task_P08_EvaluateModificationPolicy).
  • Availability branch:
    • if unavailable, prepare alternatives then offer.
    • if available, reprice and offer.
  • Guest decision branch (accept vs keep original booking).
  • Additional guarantee branch after acceptance:
    • no additional guarantee -> update/confirm directly.
    • additional guarantee -> delta pre-auth request/result path.
  • If delta pre-auth fails, process routes to decline outcome.

Non-blocking lint warning

A single right-to-left edge (Flow_P08_Approved_No) is deliberate to route failed delta guarantee back to decline handling.
