maybe Alison wants to post as an answer. But I still feel that it is simply a negotiated/offered rate. I may be wrong.

Q: I RECEIVED A QUEUE MESSAGE THAT MY NEGOTIATED/CONTRACT RATE WAS LOADED, BUT I DO NOT SHOW IT IN THE GDS. WHY NOT?
A: The queue message is sent out when the request is received for loading, so you will need to allow approximately one week for it to be completed. If it has been more than a week and the rate still isn't viewable in the GDS, have the hotel verify if the rate was loaded as a negotiated or contracted rate. If you are checking availability for a negotiated rate that has been loaded as a contracted rate, the rate will not display.
