Why does the "Apply cancellation fee" option not work?
Automatic cancellation fees depend on the Cancellation policies of the rate's rate group:
- If the cancellation fees are not applied, check if the rate is within a rate group with a cancellation policy set up.
- If the cancellation fee works but the amount is incorrect, check the setup (dates, values, etc.) of your cancellation policy.
