Although the report is linked to the agent signature, every time it leaves KIU, the report will remain open, so when the same user re-enters can continue using the sales report that was opened at the time he left.

Issuing an E-Ticket


Electronic Ticketing (e-ticketing) allows you to sell air transportation without issuing printed tickets. It also allows passengers to check in and board flights without holding printed tickets.

  • In order to issue a ticket, the reservation must be previously priced and the fare must be stored.

  • PNR must not have any UN segments and it is advisable that the status codes be updated and previously recorded. (HK, HL, HM, MM). The system will issue exactly as priced.

  • System allows to issue twice or more times an electronic ticket for the same passenger within  the same PNR and same segments, but from the second issuance for the same passenger ,the system sends an alert before performing the ticketing transaction.

If company policy is to require document information in the name field you can add this info before issuing a ticket with the following entry:

The following indicators should be activated in the JJETKT table. Modification must be requested host@kiusys.com

The main action of this functionality is that in cases where the ticket to be exchanged contains flown or non-exchangeable coupons  the system will automatically take OPENvalue coupons  to perform the assessment and subsequent exchange of these coupons.

Partial Exchange with Unidentified  Amounts


For those ticket  issuances with masks, which come from another system / GDS or issuances  made prior to the activation of this functionality by the airline.
There are two options for processing them, depending on the configuration you decide to use:

Partial Exchange Enabled


When performing this transaction, the system will display the values in favor of the blank passenger in the first mask . (without reference values) since it can not calculate the values automatically in the ticketing scenarios described above. The agent will  have to manually input fare and taxes in order to execute the exchange The entry of this information does not imply that the user must have the keyword that allows data manipulation.

To accept this option in the table JJETKT/<country> must be configured the following parameter in the selected sales channels.

When you perform one of these exchanges the system will display the legend Partial Exchange

Add Residual Amounts to prompt the user to enter the data manually

Partial Exchange Disabled 


When you do not allow partial exchange, the system will display the following error message when want to proceed to perform an exchange of a ticket issued with masks, which come from another system / GDS or ticket issuances prior to the airline activation of this functionality.

Involuntary Exchange (Not implemented)


When the ticket exchange is not requested by the passenger, and is caused by the airline, an Involuntary Exchange can be carried out, using the following command:

WK*FEXI*S<SEGMENT NBR>*E<COUPON NBR>

WK*FEXI*S<SEGMENT NBR>*E<COUPON NBR>

Example:

WK*FEXI*S1*E1

Notes:

  • Do not quote the new itinerary

  • The ticket to be exchanged must be displayed prior to the involuntary exchange command

  • When an involuntary exchange is carried out, no fare difference or penalties will apply

  • The total field of the new ticket will show NO ADC

  • The endorsement INVOL REROUTE will be added automatically

  • At the beginning of the fare construction, the indicator "I-" will be added.

  • The fare construction of the new ticket will be a copy of the one in the original ticket

  • The fare basis of the new ticket corresponds to that of the first affected segment (original ticket), and is repeated in all coupons impacted by the change

  • The command requires confirmation adding / Y at the end of it

 

 

Exchange simulation


In order to know the amounts as result of the exchange without saving itinerary changes, it is possible to simulate a ticket exchange.

The following steps will allow the user to simulate the ticket exchange and see the amounts on the screen:

  1. Retrieve the PNR

  2. Modify the itinerary as needed (Do not save changes)

  3. Quote the new itinerary selecting corresponding segments. E.g.: WS*FEX*S2 (Do not save changes)

  4. Display the e-ticket to be exchanged

  5. Enter the exchange transaction as follows and the system will display on screen the amounts that will result from the exchange: WK*FEX*S2

Fill in Masks for ticketing


The objective of the masks is to be able to issue tickets with fares that are not published. Pricing  masks must be created  first to be able to take the necessary information and store it in order to be able to issue the ticket. The mask will be stored with a validity period of 30 days and after that it will be deleted.

Create Mask Header with Graphical Assistant


To create a mask it is necessary to have a newly retrieved  PNR (without any recent modifications) and with no UN segments.

In case of having to make any modifications in the PNR, theses must be done first, recorded and then you must retrieve the unchanged status PNR.

The command to start creating a mask is:

This command displays the following screen

  • To enter the different Tour Code options, the U indicator must be omitted. example: instead of entering UB / <TOUR CODE> to hide the fare, you must enter only B / <TOUR CODE>. In case you want to use the option UN in the fare mask,it will not be necessary to enter the acronym.

  • Currencies offered in the mask correspond to those configured in the country of origin of the trip ,and those of the country of the terminal that is creating the mask.

Once this screen is recovered, the data corresponding to each box is loaded,Once you have completed the necessary data, you will go to the next screen, by pressing the button NEXT

This screen is also completed with the necessary data and once finished, press the Finish button.

The response displays the loaded data in the following way

If the data is correct, the PNR must be recorded with ER, if not, it can be ignored with I to start again

When recording the PNR with ER and then retrieving it will be possible to see a REMARKS field where the mask  has been stored.

Once the mask has been recorded,you can proceed to ticketing .Up to nine masks can be loaded within the same PNR.

It is important to keep in mind that masks are created by passenger type. The command W * TKT creates by default an ADULT passenger mask, if you want to create some of CHD or INF, the commands would be

To view all the masks loaded inside a PNR, the command is:

To see the details of Mask 1 you must enter W*1 ,W*2 according to the mask number.

Delete a Mask


The masks have a validity of 30 days once loaded but can be erased  manually in case it is necessary.

This command deletes the mask that is stored in the PNR. The correct answer is DONE

Closing the PNR will automatically delete the Remark field:

If there are 2 or more masks recorded in the PNR, they can be deleted individually or partially.
The command would be:

Ticketing overriding Currency


In case you want to create a ticketing mask with a currency different from the origin of the trip or the terminal, it is allowed to override the currency with the following commands

Example:

W*TKT/EUR

To override currency and  passenger type , the command is as follows:

Example:

W*TKT/PCHD/EUR

Ticketing  with Masks


Ticket issuance with mask is very similar to direct ticketing .The difference is that you must clarify what mask you want to issue, in addition to passengers, in the case of having different passenger types.

As in the direct ticketing, the same forms of payment are used, applying them in the same way.It is essential to have the mask that will be used, loaded and recorded in the PNR.

Once the mask is created and recorded, the issuance of a ticket can be generated.

Taking as an example the following PNR, the input command for ticketing is:

Description:

WK*M

Fixed ticketing entry

1

Mask number

*

Divider

F

Replacing ticket time limit , a ticket field is generated for each one issued with the number of the same, the last name / initial of the passenger and the date of issue. Tickets will be issued for the value that is loaded in the mask.
When executing the command, that data is recorded in the PNR as a transaction in the PNR history.

The command to use an exchange payment method with an issued ticket with mask is:

Description:

WK*FEX
