Objectives Upon completion of this class, you will be able to: Organize your fare contracts for efficient data entry Establish viewership and user profiles Access Direct Fare Filing in the Sabre MyFares application Use the online help system Build contracts for fixed price and discount fares Create fares, fare markets and apply fare rules and restrictions Use the Reports tool to review contract for accuracy Find the fare in the Sabre system fare quote (FQ) Book an itinerary and price (WP) to test the fare/contract Testing your input When you first build your fare in Direct Fare Filing, you should open viewership to these fares and test these fares in another pseudo city code (PCC). This is known as a multiple PCC. This avoids any impact to your main PCC. Once you are comfortable that the fare is pricing correctly, you can modify the viewership to include your main PCC and whomever you want to be able to price the fare. You may request a multiple PCC via Agency eservices, Order menu, Place an Agency Order, New Multiple PCC. There is no charge for a multiple PCC.

Used to action Net fares filed through ATPCO. Direct Fare Filing Basics Student Guide Page 5 Page 1 of 6

O R G A N I Z E C O N T R A CT I N F O R M A T I O N Preparing in advance for the creation of your contract and the subsequent input of data results in a smoother workflow and expedites the overall process as well. Prior to accessing Direct Fare Filing in the Sabre MyFares application, it is recommended that you review the contract received from the carrier in its entirety and evaluate the information to be recorded during creation of the automated contract. Assessing the details up front allows you to organize details according to their use during the contract input and also determine any tasks, such as creation of groups, that could be completed ahead of time to facilitate the process. Use the following suggestions to organize your contract data and prepare for input: Determine the type of fare contract to be created. Fixed Price Fare - (a fare that is a set specified amount). Net Fare - (a fare that can be set at a net amount and raised to a selling amount). Discount Fare - (a fare that is created using another fare as a base). Establish viewership by determining who is eligible to see and sell the fares. Determine if an existing viewership group is applicable. Create a new viewership group, if desired. Determine eligible fare markets and rules to be applied to each. Group together geographical markets that use the same fare rules. Use Location Code Translator tool to encode/decode location types, as needed. Determine if any existing geographic groups are applicable. Create any new geographic groups for these markets, if desired. Only cities and airports can be included in groups used with Fixed Price and Net fares. Each cycle through the fare and rule input process is referred to as an iteration. Markets with the same fare attributes and rule restrictions are entered in a single iteration. Multiple iterations are entered when fare attributes and rule restrictions vary for the eligible fare markets. Determine whether you will use an existing carrier routing or create a new routing. If creating Discount fares, determine whether the fare amounts are specified or to be calculated. If creating Net fares, determine if they are to be redistributed, as well as other permissions being assigned. Verify that individuals assigned to create contracts are authorized to use Direct Fare Filing in the Sabre MyFares application (See below). Note: All contract data does not have to be entered during a single access. If you begin creating a contract but do not complete the process and submit it to the Sabre system, be sure to Save any data you wish to keep. You then have 60 days to complete the data and submit the contract to the Sabre system before the partial contract data is purged. A U T H O R I Z A T I O N T O U S E T H E T O O L Contract Manager and Mark-up Manager authorization for your agency is controlled by an Administrator selected by your specific agency. The user profile for your agency s initial Administrator is set up by Sabre Travel Network representatives. The Administrator is then allowed to set up all subsequent user profiles in your agency. Administrators assign the privilege levels that authorize individual users to view and/or perform contract activities. For information on creating user profiles, see Adding a New User quick reference. Note: If a user profile has not yet been created either for the designated agency Administrator or any individual agent, attempts to access Direct Fare Filing in the Sabre MyFares application generate an error response.

G E N E R A L N A V I G A T I O N T I P S Direct Fare Filing is designed to follow a directed contract workflow for specified activities. Within that workflow, you have some choices for navigating through the various screens. Tabs Some screens reflect tabs that allow navigation within a specific section of the contract. The active tab within the section is highlighted. Upon reaching a given point in the workflow, you may return to a previous screen by clicking the available tab. (See Viewership, Viewership Definition, and Restrictions tabs below) However, please note that using screen tabs for navigation is for informational purposes only. If data on a previous tab in a workflow requires changes, the workflow should be repeated in order for the change to take place. Scrolling Use the vertical and horizontal scroll bars when the work area utilizes more space than is viewable on the screen. Buttons Navigation buttons reside at the bottom of a screen or tab. While working in a contract, you may access any menu on the Main Toolbar, such as Tools or Reports, and then return to the point in the contract where you left off without starting over. To help you track your progress as you navigate through the workflow, the Main Toolbar highlights the tool component being used, and the additional toolbar highlights the activity currently underway. Warning: Direct Fare Filing is designed to use only the application s navigation features. Do not use your browser s Back or Forward and the need to reenter it.

Add a New User Direct Fare Filing Quick Reference O V E R V I E W Each agent who will input or modify fares in Direct Fare Filing through the Sabre MyFares application must have a user profile in order to access the tool. Select a Direct Fare Filing Administrator within your agency and contact your Sabre Travel Network representative to request creation of the initial user profile for your Administrator. Each agency Administrator is then authorized to create all subsequent user profiles and define privilege levels granted to other users in the agency. U S E R P R I V I L E G E L E V E L S The following user privilege levels are available: Administrator Create/Modify View Only Inactive Allows user to create profiles and define privileges for additional Administrators and other users in their own Pseudo City (PCC), as well as view/create/modify contracts. Allows user to create and modify contracts. Allows user to only view contracts. User s privileges are revoked, no longer allowing access to Direct Fare Filing; their profile remains in the system but is accessible only to the agency Administrator. Note: You cannot delete user profiles. However, you may set the privilege level to inactive to prevent Direct Fare Filing access. P S E U D O C I T Y C O D E ( P C C ) C A T E G O R I E S When authorized by the agency Administrator, you may work in pseudo cities other than your default PCC, as defined in the Direct Fare Filing section of the agency Travel Journal Record (TJR). Refer to MyFares online Help for details about the Sabre system entries required to update your TJR. The TJR must be updated before the Acting PCCs can be added to the User Profile. The following categories of PCCs are used by Direct Fare Filing: User PCC Access PCC for Contract Manager Access PCC for Mark-up Manager Acting PCC Agent s default PCC (your Sabre system sign-in PCC). PCCs in which you are authorized to view/create/modify contracts. PCCs in which you are authorized to view/create/modify data in Mark-up Manager. PCC you are working in, which may be a non-default PCC available to your agency, if authorized by your Administrator. Only one Acting PCC is in use at a time. The guidelines below apply in regard to Acting PCC and movement within the various tools: When you initially access Direct Fare Filing, the Acting PCC defaults to the User PCC. You have the option of changing the Acting PCC to one you are authorized to work in, based on the access defined in your user profile (for example, your default PCC is A1B2, you need to create a contract in your branch PCC of Z9Z9). To change the Acting PCC, use the drop-down menu on the first screen of the Contract Manager or Mark-up Manager to make your selection (select your branch PCC of Z9Z9 to create the contract here). User Admin activity always processes under the User PCC. Therefore, even if you change the Acting PCC in Contract Manager or Mark-up Manager and then access the Administration tool, User Admin processing reverts to the User PCC. If you change the Acting PCC, initiate a workflow in Contract Manager or Mark-up Manager, and then access a different tool (other than Administration), the most recently selected Acting PCC is assumed for the new tool. If you move from Contract Manager to Mark-up Manager or vice versa, work is processed under the changed Acting PCC If you access the Tools menu, any user-defined geographic groups or viewership groups that you create are associated with the changed Acting PCC (If you access the Tools menu independent of Contract Manager or Mark-up Manager by proceeding directly to it after accessing Direct Fare Filing, your User PCC will be the Acting PCC). Upon subsequent return to Contract Manager or Mark-up Manager from the other tool (including Administration), the Acting PCC change is still assumed for the session. Note: If you change the Acting PCC but do not initiate a workflow before moving to a different tool, the Acting PCC reverts to the User PCC, both in the new tool and upon returning to the previous tool (Contract Manager or Mark-up Manager). Therefore, to work in a different Acting PCC after returning to Contract Manager or Mark-up Manager, you must make that selection on the initial screen of either application.

Using the Reports Tool Direct Fare Filing Quick Reference O V E R V I E W Direct Fare Filing delivered by the Sabre MyFares application allows you to perform basic contract queries and generate simple reports for viewing, saving, and/or printing. These reports are used in a view only mode, whereby they create no updates nor require any further activity in the contract database. T Y P E S O F R E P O R T S Two types of reports are available: Fare Detail Contract Detail Allows you to view a list of the fares associated with a given contract. Provides complete details of a contract, including fares, rules and routings, along with in-depth information regarding contract status. For example, if a contract fails to activate when submitted, access the Contract Detail Report to determine the cause. Either type of report can be viewed directly in a separate browser or saved locally for printing or archiving purposes. P S E U D O C I T Y C O D E S Report requests are limited to one pseudo city code (PCC) per report. In addition to your default PCC, also known as the User PCC, there may be other PCCs in which you are authorized to work. These are referred to as Acting PCCs. Upon changing into an Acting PCC, you not only change the PCC for creating and viewing contracts, but also the PCC for running reports. W O R K F L O W The Reports tool may be accessed from Contract Manager or directly from the Main Toolbar, independent of the contract workflow. Although accessible while working on a contract, opening the Reports tool does not impact the current contract workflow. You may wish to initially view, save and/or print reports prior to submitting your contracts to the Sabre system. This may be especially helpful for quality control purposes. If someone needs to review the contract information before it is submitted for processing, you can easily print a report or save it to your hard drive and email it to a designated individual, if desired.
