Departure Airport

 

AWB Main

All rates.

For Customer and Net rates the system will also find rates with departure ZZZ.
However, the program will first check whether there are rates for the Airport entered in the order.

Destination

AWB Main

All rates.

Customer rates and eRates: The city code is determined through the city airport table, e.g. airport ORD = CHI (Chicago).
The program then determines all rates with destination city CHI, which may also be rates for airport MDW in CHI.
The system also checks the airport code (e.g. ORD) of the field Airport in the basic data.
A selection mask opens if there are multiple rates for destination CHI!

Carrier

 

AWB Main

All rates.

For IATA and Customer rates, the system first checks whether there are rates for the carrier. If not, rates without carrier will be found instead (=valid for all carriers).
Rates for the carrier have priority.

Service

 

AWB Main

All rates according to the service table.

The system first checks whether the basic data contain rates with the service entered in the order.
If no service has been entered, rates recorded without service will be determined instead.

Attention: This can mean that, for example, you will receive a universally valid rate as the customer rate because only rates WITH service have been recorded for your customers!

In the order, the system will only determine customer rates that match the branch or that were recorded universally for all branches.
Rates with a matching branch always have priority.
