1. How to Use the Update Function
Use the Update Function when you need to sync changes from your booking system into an itinerary that has already been linked in Wetu.
1. Resend your booking from your operating system.
2. Open the Connect screen in Wetu.
3. Search for and locate your booking.
4. Select Update.
Selecting Update will push all updated services from your operating system into the existing Wetu itinerary.

Note: Contact the internal team member responsible for your Wetu account to confirm how your Update option is configured.
2. Service Lines
When you run an update, Wetu handles service line changes automatically.
Any services that have been added or removed in your booking system will be reflected in the Wetu itinerary - existing services are replaced with the updated version.

3. Free Text Field Options
When updating a booking, you can choose how Wetu handles existing free text fields. There are three options:
Ignore
No changes are made to existing free text fields. Any updated notes coming from your operating system are disregarded - the current content is preserved as-is.
Overwrite
All existing free text field content is removed and replaced with the updated note pushed from your operating system.
Append
The updated note is added below the existing content, separated by the heading "This note has been appended to the existing note." You will need to review each free text field manually to ensure the content displays correctly.
Quick Comparison
| Option | Effect on existing text | Manual review needed? |
|---|---|---|
| Ignore | Unchanged — existing notes kept | No |
| Overwrite | Deleted and replaced with updated note | No |
| Append | Updated note added below existing content | Yes — review all affected fields |
