Retrieves potential refund amount for a terminated reservation. This is for reservations only and will return “0” for any currently occupied rental.

Returned Parameters

Example

As with every method we need to pass in credentials. We do this with the LookupUser request object.

We’ll assume you’ve got a web reference, let’s name it SWS, in your Visual Studio project.  At this point we need to our objects.  We’ll need the standard service object, a GetEstimatedRefund request object and a GetEstimatedRefund response object.  We can define and create those like this:

// Create a request and response objects
SWS.WSSoapClient service = new SWS.WSSoapClient();
SWS.GetEstimatedRefund_Request request = new SWS.GetEstimatedRefund_Request();
SWS.GetEstimatedRefund_Response response;

Here’s my sample code of the Request object.

// GetEstimatedRefund Request
request.RentalID = 123456;

Finally we can call the method and pass across the login object and the request object to get our estimated refund. It’s a good idea to do this in a Try Catch block.

// Call the method that will load the response object
try
{
  response = service.GetEstimatedRefund(user_request,request);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
  MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}

Note that if something goes wrong the service will respond with an exception. You’ll want to take a look at that message returned in that exception so it can be debugged.
