This problem will occur if a MinLOS restriction received in an incoming Availability and Rates request is greater than existing MaxLOS restriction already stored in Expedia Group's system for this property.

Base Availability request adjusted to prevent total availability from exceeding the system maximum

Only applicable to properties on base allocation and for updates made using “flexibleAllocation”. If the total of base and flexible allocation exceeds Expedia Group's hard limit of 4999, this error will be returned.

In this specific case, the update was processed and the total allocation is adjusted to 4999 automatically.

Note that it is not possible to provide flexible or total allocation greater than 4999 in Availability and Rates requests, as the schema does not allow it.
