Introduction to FareManager Routings Managing Routing Restrictions and Maps

Introduction to FareManager Routings Mission After completing this module, participants will have an introductory understanding of the purpose and functionality of FareManager Routings. Why is this module important? Enhancements to the ATPCO system make it possible for customers to create, update, and cancel their routing maps and restrictions in lieu of sending an instruction to ATPCO. Previously, online capabilities of data providers were limited to only viewing or inquiring about routing information. Many customers will continue to instruct ATPCO analysts when changes are desired. However, FareManager Routings makes the display and maintenance of routings easier and more efficient for all users. Learning objectives After completing this module, participants will be able to do the following: Understand the significance of the FareManager Routings system Identify the function of routing maps Identify the function of routing restrictions Identify the steps for accessing FareManager Routings 5

Introduction to FareManager Routings Understanding the significance of the system FareManager Routings is a Web-based tool that gives data owners control over their own routing data and makes the management of the routing database easier for all users. You can create, modify, and cancel routing maps and restrictions. The printing of routing tariff pages remains limited to ATPCO only. Data owners are responsible for instructing ATPCO to update the associated tariff pages for any routing changes that the owner makes. The printing of routing tariff pages remains limited to ATPCO only. Features of the system include the following: Free and secure web access A drawing tool for routing maps Access to restriction updates via a single screen Copy and paste functionality Find and replace functionality Print capability Zoom feature Valid values lists Online help Basis for fares: Routing or mileage International fares may be published as either routing - or mileage-based. Fares that are mileage-based do not necessarily restrict how a passenger gets from origin to destination. Instead, the passenger is allowed a Maximum Permitted Mileage (MPM). As long as the passenger s schedule is within the MPM, the fare stands. However, if the MPM is exceeded, the passenger will be assessed a mileage surcharge. It is very common for an international ticket to be issued with a combination of both types of fares. For instance a passenger traveling ATH LON NYC may be ticketed on a mileage-based fare for the first leg and routing-based fare for the second. US/CA domestic fares are always routing-based. Routing-based fares require more planning for making pricing decisions. However, when strategically used, they help to clarify intent, categorize travelers, and ultimately boost revenues. 6

Introduction to FareManager Routings The function of routing maps A routing map is like a miniature rule it is another way to add restrictions to a fare. A routing map is an online system that provides the following restrictions: It specifies routing restrictions based on a linear map or specified textual restrictions. It defines which carriers may be used for travel. It defines which transfer or stopover points are permitted. The function of routing restrictions A restriction is a subsystem within the routing map that handles exceptions or limitations to a routing. These exceptions are similar to those found in the rules system. Restrictions are composed of a series of categories, where each category handles a different type of restriction. 7

Introduction to FareManager Routings Accessing FareManager Routings Step 1. Open the ATPCO Web site at http://www.atpco.net. Step 2. Click the link. Step 3. Step 4. Sign in with your user ID and password. On the Customer Center Home Page, place your cursor over the FareManager link and choose FareManager (non SSL) or FareManager (SSL) link. Step 5. Enter your user ID and password. Click. Step 6. Click within the Data Collection and Data Distribution group box. Note: For further information about accessing FareManager applications, please see FareManager 100 documentation. You may also access routing map information in ATPCO s Routings system directly from Fares. Simply click the right side of the RTG or Chg. RTG fields on the following Fares screens: Query Criteria set Selection Results Criteria set Changed Fares Batches View Batch Details Edit Batch Details 8

Introduction to FareManager Routings Summary FareManager Routings makes the display and maintenance of routings easy and efficient for all users. Customers are now able to create, update, and cancel their routing maps and restrictions in lieu of sending an instruction to ATPCO. Customers may continue to instruct ATPCO analysts when changes are desired. The printing of routing tariff pages remains limited to ATPCO. Data owners must instruct ATPCO to update tariff pages when online changes are made. You may access Routings from the FareManager home page or from certain screens of the Fares system. The following modules will describe methods of how to view data and how to create or modify routing maps and restrictions. 9

Inquiry Using FareManager to View Routing Restrictions and Maps

Inquiry Mission After completing this module, participants will know how to list and view routing maps and restrictions, and how to interpret routing data. Why is this module important? Data owners and system users must know how to research routing information in order to check for accuracy and effectively manage the database. Learning objectives After completing this module, participants will be able to do the following: Display a list of routing numbers Interpret routing data View routing maps View routing restrictions View reference options Use the Find/Replace function 13

Inquiry How to display a list of routings Step 1. Enter the desired carrier and tariff on the Routings screen in the search parameter fields. Step 2. Click. Note: The search parameter may also be coded with only a tariff. In that case the resulting list will show all carriers and routings within that tariff. Getting in: Enter the desired carrier and tariff on the Routings screen. Figure 1 Getting In A list of applicable routings will appear. Figure 2 Routing screen 14

Inquiry Step 3. You may also indicate a specific routing number before clicking. Routing Selection Figure 3 Routing Selection The list will filter down to all segments for the specified number. Figure 4 Filtered Routing List 15

Inquiry How to interpret routing data Part A: List Screen field descriptions Figure 5 Routing List fields Field Lock Carrier Tariff Routing Map/Restriction Type Batch Status Effective Date Discontinue Date Direction DRV Description Padlock icon indicates a user is modifying a routing. Routings remain locked until update or until they are manually unlocked. The data owner. Routing tariff (Note: One routing tariff can be linked to multiple fares tariffs). Four-digit routing number. Indicates whether the routing includes a linear map, restriction, or both. Routings may be Regular, Source, Partial, or Option. Batch number that is currently manipulating or that last updated a routing. Indicates if a batch/routing is Incomplete Edited, Incomplete Unedited, Incomplete Updated, or has been made Public/Secured. Effective date of the last update. Will appear if the routing number has been canceled or if recently modified. If the effective date of the last modification was fewer than seven days in the past, the discontinue date of the previous version will appear. Indicates whether a map may be read in both directions: from left to right, or right to left. Domestic Route Validation Indicator. May be Blank (default), 1 (routing used as shown), or 2 (default to any online point). 16

Inquiry Field CP IP Description Common Point Indicator. May be Blank (default, add-ons and routings may be linked at any common entry/exit points), or 1 (restricts add-ons and routings to be linked only at common entry/exit points, published fares must begin/end at entry/exit points). Intermediate Point Indicator. May be Blank (default) or 1 (Allow entry/exit at intermediate points) UP Un-ticketed point Indicator, May be Blank (must validate only ticketed points) or 1 (validate ticketed and un-ticketed points on the fare component). Part B: Routing maps and symbols Figure 6 Routing Map Routing maps indicate that travel is permitted from all cities listed on the left to all cities listed on the right, via cities listed in the center. Each row begins and ends with a location in bold type, indicating allowable entry or exit points. Slash symbols placed between location or carrier codes mean or. For example, a line reading CLE/CHI/NYC means that travel may originate from Cleveland or Chicago or New York City. Dash symbols placed between location or carrier codes mean to or via. For example, a line reading CLE-LON-PAR-MOW means that travel from Cleveland to Moscow may be accomplished via London and Paris. Maps that are printed on paper and presented to governments also use special symbols to indicate changes. A pair of parentheses indicates that a new location or carrier has been added to a map. For example, a line reading CLE-LON-(PAR)-MOW means that Paris was added to the map at the last update. A pair of brackets surrounding an X indicates that a location or carrier was deleted from a map. For example, a line reading CLE-LON--{X}--MOW means that the location between London and Moscow was deleted at the last update. 17

Inquiry How to view routing maps and restrictions Step 1. At the List screen, click the desired routing number. Select a Routing Number from the Routing List screen Figure 7 Selecting a Routing Number OR Type the carrier, tariff, and routing number in the Search Parameters field and click. Type the carrier, tariff, and routing number in the Search Parameters field. Click Search. Figure 8 Searching a Routing number 18

Inquiry The map information screen will appear. If the routing number is associated with both a map and a restriction, the map will appear on the top of the screen and the restriction(s) will be at the bottom. Step 2. Drag the scroll bar on the far-right side of the screen to move down for a better view of the restrictions. Figure 9 Both Routing Map and Restriction If the routing number is associated with only a restriction, the Map Information screen will indicate No Map Data Found. Routing restriction Figure 10 Restriction Only 19

Inquiry Reference Option A reference option is indicated by a capital letter surrounded by a dotted box. The symbol refers to a connection of two portions of the map. The reference option is used when a portion of the map is too large to fit in the spaces provided. Note: A routing map consists of 116 columns left to right and 88 rows top to bottom. Reference Option Figure 11 Reference Option In Figure 11, the first reference option A appears on the far right side of the map. The second reference option A appears at the bottom of the map on the left side, as shown in Figure 12. By using the reference option, the carrier is able to continue the top portion of the map after the last vertical bar with cities listed below: Connecting reference option Figure 12 Reference Option 20

Inquiry Using the Find/Replace feature The Find/Replace tool is an easy way to locate cities or carriers in a map or restriction. When a user is modifying a routing, the tool also allows for quick substitutions of location or carrier codes with other location or carrier codes. Use the shortcut icon, as shown in Figure 13, to access the Find/Replace feature. Find/Replace Tool Figure 13 Find tool for Routings 21

Inquiry The Find/Replace Tool can also be accessed via the Edit window, as shown in Figure 14. Find/Replace Figure 14 Find/Replace Tool The Find/Replace window will appear. Figure 15 Find/Replace Window To find an occurrence of a location or carrier code within a map, type the code in the Find what field and click. This will move the cursor to the first occurrence of the find parameter and highlight that data. After reaching the first occurrence, users may continue by clicking Find Next. 22

Inquiry When modifying a routing, the Replace with field may be used to substitute the indicated code. The button will execute the substitution only once. The code. button will execute the substitution at every occurrence of the indicated If no occurrence of the find parameter is found, the system will present the message; FareManager has finished searching the routing. The search item was not found. Deletion of codes (without government presentation symbols) may be quickly accomplished by entering the dollar sign ($) in the Replace with field. Symbols may be added to maps using the Replace with function for any place a specified location or carrier appears. Note: The Find in field defaults to routing maps. You may also select the option of using the Find/Replace tool in routing restrictions or both maps and restrictions by clicking the desired radio button. For replacement of a location or carrier within parentheses (MIA), the information in the Find what field also has to be within parentheses ( ). There are no wild cards in either the find or replace functions. The system will find an exact match of the data placed in the Find what field. The symbol $ functions as a delete tool when entered in the Replace with field of the Find/Replace tool. 23

Inquiry Summary A list of routing numbers may be found by entering the desired carrier/tariff in the search parameter of the Routings screen and clicking. A routing number may be specified to filter the list down to that particular number only. View routing maps and restrictions by clicking the selected routing number on the List screen. The reference option is used to connect two parts of the map that would not otherwise fit together. The Find/Replace feature quickly locates location or airline codes. It can also quickly substitute one code for another. 24

Creating Routings in FareManager Domestic Route Validation Indicator (international tariffs only) Figure 24 Control Information screen for new routing (Domestic Route Validation selections) a) Blank (default) If a domestic location is not found in the international routing, the system will check the domestic routing for the carrier in order to achieve auto-pricing. Where multiple domestic routings exist, the routing with the highest published one-way fare will be used. Example: International routing: SEA-CO-HOU-CO/UA-NYC-UA-LON Itinerary: SEA-CO-HOU-UA-CLE-UA-NYC-LON Cleveland is not part of the international routing. United s domestic routing will be checked to see if travel is permitted via Cleveland. b) Routing used as shown (1) Indicates that the international routing must be used as shown and the domestic routing should not be checked. c) Default to any online point (2) Indicates the routing between any two domestic points may default to any online point. Example: International routing: Itinerary: SEA-CO-HOU-CO/UA-NYC-UA-LON SEA-CO-HOU-UA-CLE-UA-NYC-LON Cleveland is automatically allowed as long as Continental or United is booked between Houston and New York City. 37

Creating Routings in FareManager Common Point Indicator (international tariffs only) a) Blank (default) Indicates that subscribers may link the add-on and specified routings at any common point. b) Add-on/Routing linked at common entry/exit points (1) Indicates that subscribers may only link add-on and specified routings at common entry/exit points. Figure 25 Control Information screen for new routing (Common Point Indication selections) Change Intermediate Point Indicator a) Blank (default) When the intermediate point indicator is set to Blank, this means that price processing must match the origin and destination of the fare component to the entry and exit points of the route path. Note: The default value for this element is Blank. b) Allow entry/exit at intermediate points (1) When the intermediate point indicator is set to 1, this means that price processing may match the origin and destination of the fare component to the entry and exit points or the intermediate points of the route path.

Creating Routings in FareManager Resolving errors FareManager Routings will indicate that transactions have errors if the system detects invalid information or invalid drawing connectors. Edit errors must be corrected before routings may be successfully updated and released to subscribers. The edit error check occurs after you click. There are four critical errors: 1. Empty elements 2. Overlapping elements 3. Source saving without map 4. Partials saving without map Critical errors will prevent changes from being saved, meaning that no new version of a routing will be created. Errors must be corrected before another attempt to save is made. If an error other than a critical error occurs, changes may be saved as unedited and a new version of the routing will be created. In this case, if a routing is closed and later reopened, the changes will still be in place. Update is not possible until the errors are corrected. 56

Creating Routing Partials How to Create and Modify Routing Partials for US/CA Domestic Tariffs

Creating Routing Partials Mission After completing this module, participants will be able to create and modify routing source maps and create or modify routing restrictions, known as partials, in the US/CA domestic tariffs. They will also be able to unlock a routing batch manually. Why is this module important? Routing partials enable a carrier to have many routing restrictions based on one routing map. Carriers use source maps and partials to organize their data in a more efficient fashion. If a source map is modified, then all the attached partials are automatically updated. Source maps and partials are generally used only in US/CA tariffs; however, there is no restriction in the system to prevent use in International tariffs. Unlocking batches manually is a part of this process. Learning objectives After completing this module, participants will know how to use FareManager Routings to complete the following: Create partials for US/CA domestic routings Manually unlock a routing Module contents Identifying original routings and changing them to source Creating and modifying new routing for partials Manually unlocking routing batches 97

Creating Routing Partials US/CA domestic tariff routing partials Partials are routing restrictions that are linked to an original (source) routing to add more specific provisions to fares. They allow a single source routing to be applied to different (multiple) fares with different restrictions.

Follow the steps provided as described in earlier modules. How to manually unlock a routing When a user switches a routing from the read-only mode to the edit/modify mode, the routing becomes locked. A routing may also become locked when a system process is executing or when there is a system error. You must know how to unlock their own routings after modifications are complete. Sometimes it is necessary to unlock another user s routing, though you should always check with that user before doing so. 106

Creating Routing Partials Only the action of updating to the database will automatically unlock a routing. All other locks must be manually changed. Locked routings will display a padlock icon in the List screen (shown below) and in the Map Editor. Locked Routing Figure 129 Manually unlocking a routing Clicking Unlock to release the routing. Warning! The initial user will not receive any message stating that the routing has been unlocked by another user. Figure 130 Routings unlock confirmation A warning message will appear if the routing is locked by another user. Unlocking the routing of another user will cause that user to lose any unsaved changes. The initial user will not receive any message stating that the routing has been unlocked. No warning message will appear when a user unlocks a routing that he or she has locked and completed. Routings that are locked because of save or update processing cannot be unlocked. If a user attempts to unlock it, a message will appear instructing the user to try again later. 107

Creating Routing Partials Summary Source maps and partials are an important feature to help carriers organize their data. By using sources and partials carriers can build many restrictions that are based off of one routing map. This module describes the steps to do the following: Change a regular map to a source map Create a new partial The steps to manually unlock a routing and the dangers involved are also discussed. 108
