Pls provide working Request Body for OTA_HotelResLLSRQ.

Answer 1

Have you tried requesting with a real test Credit Card?
https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/vhelp/paypalmanager_help/credit_card_numbers.htm

Answer 2

The credit card number "1234567890" is likely the cause of the problem. If this is being done on Sabre's production API, a real credit card number is required here. You should also enter the card owner's real surname instead of "TEST".
My recommendation would be to enter a real valid credit number and expiry date. To prevent the booking from getting passed to the hotel, you should make a call to "IgnoreTransactionLLSRQ" right after the call to "OTA_HotelResLLSRQ".
The SOAP body for "IgnoreTransactionLLSRQ" is very simple:
<soapenv:Body>
<IgnoreTransactionRQ xmlns="http://webservices.sabre.com/sabreXML/2011/10" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" Version="2.0.0"></IgnoreTransactionRQ>
</soapenv:Body>
That will allow you to pass a valid credit card to "OTA_HotelResLLSRQ" to verify if that is the cause of your error. Once your flow is working properly, you can then replace the call to "IgnoreTransactionLLSRQ" with the proper "EndTransactionLLSRQ" to generate real bookings.
I hope that helps!

Answer 3

The credit card number is too short and invalid. The roomrate should have included a list of accepted cards, maybe AX is not accepted. Also it probably won't accept a name like TEST.
