Short answer 37 words

Yes, if it can see the property's availability and rates. It checks dates, quotes the rate, takes the booking details and confirms in writing, then hands over anything unusual, such as a group request, to a person.

The fuller answer

It needs a live connection to the booking system or calendar, not a static list.

Policies such as deposits and cancellation should be set per property.
