Environment (Technologies)

Assembler, zTPF, TPFDF

Description

The purpose of this product is that the agencies are able to manipulate the availability data (zero out or restrict class of service or cabin), block carriers and flights by using Air-Preferencing rules residing on 1G/1V TPF host database . The rules are added via GUI tool by the various subscribers like AMEX, HRG, CWT or flight center . The Preferencing rules impact general availability, 1G/1V direct access availability, and flight specific availability and sell functionality.

Description

The Point of Commencement (POC) project will protect Travelport subscriber access to preferred content by providing airlines with the new IATA field for seamless availability queries. Successful implementation of POC in 1P will improve the quality of airline availability obtained via Seamless Availability for carriers that currently use POC. Modify 1P Seamless Availability processing to send the Point Of Commencement information, in the POC EDIFACT segment if the target vendor supports it and the POC data is present. Modify TAAS synchronization to account for new POC data and maintain database synchronization in all Travelport cores

The modified void functionality will be utilized to void only those refunds completed by the ARS.

This ARS is divided into 5 processes. They are,

1. RFS1 - To Get Coupon Status and Control

2. RFS2 - To Finalize Refund

3. RFS3 - To Void Refund

4. RFS4 - To Print/Reprint Documents

5. RFS5 - To do a Restricted Functional Rule (RFR) Check

This project deals with the sequence modification and the The HE entry must accept sick codes (paid and unpaid) while modifying sequences to split off the portion of the sequence not flown. The End of the transaction must trigger auto population of the sick absence in the planned absence record.

The start time would be the time of the modification entry made for mid-sequence sick removal.

If the modification was made prior to sequence origination, the start time would be the report time (if applicable) of the sequence.

oThis must trigger the next activity alert for a double up sequence/multiple sequences present on the same day.
