# Revenue Management System (RMS)

Your RMS sends rate and restriction updates to SiteMinder, which distributes them across all connected booking channels. Optionally, your RMS can also receive reservation data from SiteMinder to feed pricing models.

> **API used:**
>
> [**pmsXchange**](/pmsxchange-api/pmsxchange-api.md) - rate and restriction updates.\
> [**SMX**](/smx-api/smx-api.md) - reservation data access (optional).

{% hint style="success" %}
**RMS integrations require a pilot property before going live.**

A single property is connected to production to validate that everything works correctly in a live environment before scaling to additional properties.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://developer.siteminder.com/get-started/integration-types/rms.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
