Cancellation

It is possible that a cancellation only contain the unique identifiers of the reservation to be cancelled. This will only happen if the original reservation was not stored in pmsXchange. The receiving PMS can process the cancellation if it contains the original reservation or it can respons with an Error message if the cancellation cannot be processed due to missing information.
