Introduction to EMDs

This chapter includes the following topics:


• What Is an EMD? below.
• Why Issue an EMD? below.
• Overview: EMD Type and Structure on page 6.

What Is an EMD?
An Electronic Miscellaneous Document (EMD) is the industry-standard document
for all fees and charges collected outside of a ticket.
An EMD allows you to document the sale, and track the use of ancillary services,
and other charges or reimbursements, including, for example, excess baggage
charges, lounge access charges, penalty fees, residual values, group booking
deposits, and so on.
EMDs replace all other existing paper miscellaneous documents and Electronic
Miscellaneous Charges Orders (EMCOs).
You can issue EMDs for any validating airlines that authorise their use.

Video: What Is an EMD?


Launch

Why Issue an EMD?


You issue an EMD to:
• Accept payment for and track various types of services including air
transportation, group deposits, reimbursements, rebooking fees and other
charges.
• Automatically integrate miscellaneous charges into invoices, sales reports,
back office accounting and external systems (other reservations and
departure control systems).
• Issue an electronic record, and email or print the information if necessary
(depending on your office profile settings).

Amadeus Electronic Miscellaneous Documents User Guide

Overview: EMD Type and Structure


Like an e-ticket, an EMD consists of one or multiple coupons, each with a coupon
status (such as open, used, refunded or void).
Some EMD information is valid for the whole document and all its coupons. This
document level information includes, for example:
• EMD number.
• EMD type.
• Reason-For-Issuance code (RFIC).
• Place of issue.
• Date of issue.
Other information is valid for specific coupons only. This coupon level information
includes:
• Reason-For-Issuance sub-code (RFISC).
• Coupon status.
• Coupon value.

What Are Associated and Standalone EMDs?


The services sold using an EMD may be linked to an e-ticket flight coupon (such
as excess baggage or meal requests), but some do not have to be linked (such
as car rental or rebooking fees and penalties). Therefore, two types of EMD are
defined:
• An associated EMD (EMD-A); coupons are directly linked to e-ticket
coupons.
• A standalone EMD (EMD-S); coupons are not directly linked to e-ticket
coupons, the EMD does not have to be linked to an e-ticket at all.

6 Edition 7.0
Chapter 1 Introduction to EMDs

The two types differ in their behaviour and use. Here are the main characteristics:

systems). • An EMD-A can be automatically or
manually associated or disassociated
from an e-ticket.
• The EMD-A's final usage depends on
the e-ticket coupon it is associated to,
provided that it does not become
disassociated.
• The status of the associated EMD
coupons and the e-ticket coupons
must remain synchronised.

What Are RFICs and RFISCs?


An EMD is issued after services are booked in a PNR using an SSR (Special
Service Request) or an SVC (Manual Auxiliary Segment) containing an airline-
defined service code. The system translates the service code into an industry-
standard Reason-For-Issuance code (RFIC) and an airline-specific Reason-For-
Issuance sub-code (RFISC).
An EMD is categorised based on its RFIC, which defines the group of services
the EMD belongs to. There can be only be one RFIC per EMD, and the code is
automatically added by the system. RFICs are compliant with IATA standards.

Table: IATA Standard Reason-for-issuance Codes

RFIC Description Examples

A Air transportation Upgrading, involuntary


downgrading, charter
B Surface transportation / Bus, car hire

C Baggage Excess weight, sports

RFIC Description Examples

D Financial impact Booking fees,


refundable balances
E Airport services Check-in, lounge access
F Merchandise T-shirts
G Inflight services Sleeper berth,
beverages
I Reserved for individual
airline use

An EMD, and each RFIC, can have multiple RFISCs. Each EMD coupon contains
an RFISC.
For example, the RFIC for Baggage is C, and the following RFISCs can be used
for a particular airline:

Table: Airline defined RFISCs for Baggage

RFIC RFISC Description

C 99Z Excess Weight


C 99L Biking Equipment
C 99O Golfing Equipment

The available RFICs and RFISCs are managed by Amadeus for the airlines using
a system table called the Service Preferences Table.
When you are pricing a fee or service to issue an EMD, the system automatically
adds the RFIC and RFISC, and their description, to the pricing record, the TSM-
P.
For more information about the EMD pricing record (the TSM-P), see Working
With the EMD Pricing Record on page 17.

What Is the EMD Coupon Structure?


An EMD can contain up to 16 coupons. Up to four coupons can have the same
EMD number. If an EMD contains more than four coupons, a conjunction EMD is
issued (with up to four consecutive EMD numbers).
Each EMD coupon contains the following information:
• The coupon number.
• The RFISC.
• The coupon status (O for Open, F for Flown/Used, R for Refunded, V for
Voided, and so on).
• The coupon value.
The coupon status indicates the current usage of the service or fee. When an
EMD is associated to an e-ticket, the coupon status change of the e-ticket and
the EMD coupons is synchronised.
For more information on the coupon status of an EMD, enter HE EMD followed
by GP EDI in the Amadeus Information Pages.

8 Edition 7.0
Chapter 1 Introduction to EMDs

After you issue an EMD, the following coupons may be printed (depending on
your office profile settings):
• Audit Coupon (optional).
• Agent Coupon (optional).
• Passenger Receipt (optional).
• Credit Card Charge Form (optional).

Booking Chargeable Services

What Is a Chargeable Service?


Airlines can charge for ancillary services that a customer can book in combination
with a flight ticket. Examples of chargeable services include special meals,
excess baggage, sports equipment, seat reservations, lounge access, and so on.

© 2018 Amadeus s.a.s. - All Rights Reserved learning@amadeus.com 13


Amadeus Electronic Miscellaneous Documents User Guide

To book a chargeable service, or to create a fee, for which you want to issue an
EMD, you can create a Special Service Request (SSR) element or a Manual
Auxiliary Segment (SVC).

What Is a Chargeable Service Code?


A chargeable service code is used to define the service being booked. The
service code is entered as part of an SSR element or SVC segment, and the
system automatically translates the service code into an RFIC for an EMD.
Many service codes are defined by IATA, for example, XBAG for excess
baggage, PETC for Pet in Cabin, VGML for Vegetarian Vegan Meal, and so on.
However, many airlines have defined their own individual service codes.
You must consult with individual airlines to find out about their chargeable
services and which service codes you must use when booking these services.

Using Special Service Requests (SSRs)

When to Use an SSR Element


You use an SSR element to book a chargeable service that is associated to a
flight segment, such as a special meal, excess baggage, sports equipment or a
pet in cabin.

How to Create an SSR Element


1. Enter a name element and book a flight segment.
2. To create, for example, an SSR element for a pet in cabin, enter:

SR PETC-1 DOG 5KG 30CMX25CMX17CM

SR Special Service Request transaction code.


PETC- 4-digit service code (PETC for Pet in Cabin), dash.

SR Entry Selection Options


When you input an SR entry you should consider the following:
• To book the service for a specific flight segment, include the segment
association (/S) option in your entry.

14 Edition 7.0
Chapter 2 Preparing and Issuing EMDs

• To create an SSR element for specific passengers only, include the


passenger association (/P) option in your entry.
• If the SSR element is airline-specific, include the 2-character airline code in
your entry.
For more information on how to create SSR elements and on the standard IATA
SSR codes, enter HE SR in the Amadeus Information Pages.

How to Cancel SSR Elements


To cancel SSR elements, you use the XE entries that are used to cancel PNR
elements. To cancel PNR element number four for example, enter:

XE4
For more information on how to cancel SSR elements, enter HE XE in the
Amadeus Information Pages.

Using Manual Auxiliary Segments (SVCs)

When to Use an SVC Segment


For standalone services that do not need to be associated to a flight segment,
like lounge access, airline vouchers, mugs, T-shirts, group deposits and so on,
you enter a manual auxiliary segment (SVC) in the PNR.
When you create an SVC segment you should consider the following:
• An SVC segment can be associated to one passenger only. You can,
however, request more than one service per passenger.
• When you create a service segment (SVC) no message is sent to the
validating airline system.

Working With the EMD Pricing Record

What Is a TSM-P?
A TSM-P is a Transitional Stored Miscellaneous document pricing quotation
record. It is the pricing record for an EMD.
When you price a service or a fee a TSM-P is created in the PNR to store all the
pricing information required to issue an EMD.
A TSM-P is automatically created by the system when you make a confirmed
pricing entry for Amadeus Ancillary Services, or you can create one manually and
add the pricing information.
As with a Transitional Stored Ticket (TST), the pricing record for an e-ticket, after
you have created a TSM-P, you can update it, display it, and manually delete it.

Pricing a Service and Creating a TSM-P

Prerequisites
Before you can price a service and create a TSM-P, you must add the following
elements to a PNR:
• A passenger name element.
• A service element. The service element can be a:
- Special Service Request (SSR) element.
Or:
- A Manual Auxiliary Segment (SVC).
The chargeable service should be confirmed.
You can price a chargeable service manually, by creating a TSM-P and adding
the pricing information, or, if authorised, you can use Amadeus Ancillary Services
pricing entries to automatically price the service and create a TSM-P.

How to Automatically Price a Service Using Amadeus Ancillary


Services
To price a service booked in your PNR, enter:

FXG
The service is priced and a TSM-P is automatically created.
For more information about Amadeus Ancillary Services entry options, enter HE
ANC in the Amadeus Information Pages.

How to Manually Create a TSM-P


To create a TSM-P for all non-infant passenger types and all chargeable services
in a PNR, enter:

TMC

© 2018 Amadeus s.a.s. - All Rights Reserved learning@amadeus.com 17


Amadeus Electronic Miscellaneous Documents User Guide

Note: Travel agents must also enter the validating airline option /Vxx in their
TMC entry (where xx stands for the 2-character airline code).

Reference: TMC Entry Selection Options

How to... Entry

Create a TSM-P for all non-infant passenger types for validating TMC/V6X
carrier 6X.
Create a TSM-P for the SSR element/SVC segment in PNR line TMC/L8
number 8.
Create the TSM-Ps for all the SSR elements/SVC segments that TMC/P1
are associated to passenger number 1.
Create the TSM-Ps for all the SSR elements/SVC segments that TMC/INF
are associated to the infant passenger types in the PNR.
Create the TSM-Ps for all the SSR elements/SVC segments in the TMC/INF/P1
PNR for the infant associated to passenger 1.
Note: If you enter the passenger selection option (/P) but not
the infant passenger type option (/INF) in your TMC
entry, the system creates the TSM-Ps for the adult
passenger types only.

For information about how to add pricing information to the TSM-P, see Updating
a TSM-P on page 22.

Explanation: A Manually Created TSM-P


When you use the TMC entry, the system creates a TSM-P with the following
information automatically added:
• The Reason-For-Issuance Codes (RFICs).
• The Reason-For-Issuance sub codes (RFISCs).
• The EMD type (A for associated or S for standalone).
• The properties of the EMD (such as the non-refundable indicator, consumed-
at-issuance indicator, and so on, if they are applicable).
When the EMD is associated to a flight segment, the origin and destination, and
the operating carrier codes are also filled in.
For airline offices, the validating carrier field (CARR) is by default populated with
their 2-character airline code. For travel agents this field is filled with the 2-
character validating airline code that you enter in the TMC entry.
Note: If there are two services associated to the same flight segment, the
system creates two TSM-Ps, as only one coupon per EMD can be
associated to the same flight segment.
Note: An EMD cannot contain services booked by both chargeable SSRs and
SVCs. Therefore, if both exist the system automatically creates
separate TSM-Ps and separate EMDs are issued.

Displaying a TSM-P

How to Identify a TSM-P Is Stored In the PNR


After you have created a TSM-P, it is saved and filed with the PNR at End of
Transaction (ET). When you redisplay the PNR, a TSM tag is displayed in the
PNR header line, and the booked services are visible in SSR or SVC segments.
Here is an example of a PNR display with a chargeable service (SSR) for a Pet in
Cabin (PETC) on a round-trip flight for which a TSM-P has already been created
and stored:

Removing the TSM-P PNR Change Flag

What Is the TSM-P PNR Change Flag?


When a chargeable service (SSR element or SVC segment) is removed or
updated in the PNR, the system automatically adds a PNR Change (PC) flag to
the TSM-P.
The PC flag is a warning to check the stored fare and to make sure it still applies
to the passenger and the services in the itinerary. It must be removed before you
can issue an EMD.
Note: The PC flag is not set for segment status code changes (KK, KL, UC,
and so on).
If you try to issue an EMD when a PC flag is present, the system displays the
warning message: SERVICE/NAME CHANGE - VERIFY TSM.
You must remove the PC flag from the TSM-P before you can issue the EMD.
Once you have removed the PC flag, and if the TSM-P was manual, you can
issue the TSM-P.
If the TSM-P was automatic, the warning message WARNING: MANUAL TSM -
REENTER TO PROCESS is displayed when you enter TTM. In this case you
must re-enter the TTM entry to issue the TSM-P.

How to Identify the PC Flag


The PC flag is visible in the TSM-P display and in a TSM index list.

Example of a TSM-P With a PC Flag:

Deleting a TSM-P

Automatic TSM-P Deletion


A TSM-P is automatically deleted when, for example, all the flight segments that
are associated to the chargeable SSR elements of the TSM-P are cancelled, or
when all the SSR elements or SVC segments for which a TSM-P has been
created are cancelled.
You can also manually delete a TSM-P. When you manually delete a TSM-P, the
deletion is effective as when you save and file the PNR with the End Transaction
ET or ER entries.

How to Delete a TSM-P


To manually delete a TSM-P, if only one exists in the PNR, enter:

TMX

Reference: TMX Entry Selection Options


If more than one TSM-P exists in the PNR, you must enter the TSM number that
you want to delete, the passenger number, or use the /ALL option.

How to... Entry

Delete TSM-P number 1. TMX/M1


Delete all the TSM-Ps for a specific passenger. TMX/P1
Delete the TSM-Ps for the infant associated to passenger 1. TMX/P1/INF
Delete all the TSM-Ps in the PNR. TMX/ALL

Displaying the TSM-P History

What Is the TSM-P History?


The TSM-P history records the updates made to a TSM-P. There are two types of
TSM history: current and deleted.
Current TSM history contains all additions, changes, and deletions you made to
the TSM, such as updates resulting from TMI entries.
Deleted TSM history contains deleted TSMs. TSM-Ps are deleted, for example,
when:
• A chargeable SSR element or an SVC segment is cancelled.
• The passenger for whom the TSM was created is cancelled from the PNR.
Note: When a TSM is deleted, the original TSM number is allocated to the
deleted TSM and cannot be used for a new TSM.

How to Display the TSM-P History


To display the TSM-P history when only one TSM exists in the PNR, enter:

TMH

Reference: TMH Entry Selection Options


If more than one TSM exists in the PNR, the TMH entry returns a TSM index.
From the TSM index you can display the TSM history with the following selection
options.

How to... Entry

Display the TSM history from the TSM index by TSM number. TMH/M2
Display the history from the PNR or from the TSM index for the service TMH/L9
in PNR line number 9 (SSR element or SVC segment number).

For more information on the TSM history, the TMH entries and history codes,
enter HE TMH in the Amadeus Information Pages.

• Disassociating an EMD From an E-Ticket on page 46.
• Associating an EMD With an E-Ticket on page 49.
• Displaying EMD History on page 51.
• Displaying Extended EMD History on page 53.

Displaying an EMD
When you issue an EMD, just as when you issue an e-ticket, the system creates
a unique electronic document. The EMD is stored either in the Amadeus
Electronic Miscellaneous Document Server (EMS), or in the airline's own EMD
database. In both cases you can display the EMD and the EMD history in the
Amadeus system.
Note: An EMD that has been issued by an airline may not be able to be
displayed by a travel agent, and follow-up transactions such as
reissues/exchanges and refunds may not be allowed.

Disassociating an EMD From an E-Ticket


What Is Disassociation of an EMD From an E-Ticket?
To disassociate an EMD from an e-ticket is to remove the direct connection and
synchronisation between the associated EMD coupons and e-ticket coupons.
When a chargeable service has been cancelled, or a passenger is rebooked to
another flight that does not offer a booked service, you can manually disassociate
the unused EMD coupons to ensure that they do not automatically get used when
the e-ticket coupon status is changed to F for Flown.
Note: Disassociation entries are normally available to airlines agents only.
The entries can be made available to travel agent offices, but only when
authorised by the airline.

How to Disassociate an EMD From an E-Ticket


1. From the e-ticket display (TWD), verify which EMD coupons are associated
to the e-ticket. The associated coupons are indicated with an (A) for
Associated.

Chapter 3 Working With Issued EMDs

Associating an EMD With an E-Ticket


What Is Association of an EMD with an E-Ticket?
The association of an EMD coupon with an e-ticket coupon is the creation of a
direct connection and synchronisation between and the EMD coupon and the e-
ticket coupon.
When an EMD coupon has been automatically disassociated, for example due to
an e-ticket exchange or refund, or when a chargeable service has been
rebooked, you can manually associate the EMD coupon to another e-ticket.
Note: Both airline and travel agent offices can be authorised to manually
associate EMDs with e-tickets.

What Are the Rules for Manually Associating EMDs?


When you associate an EMD with an e-ticket, you must comply with the following
rules:
• The e-ticket coupons must have the status O (Open for use), A (Airport
Control), C (Checked-in) or L (Boarded).
• One EMD coupon can be associated to only one e-ticket coupon.
• No more than one EMD coupon of the same EMD can be associated to the
same e-ticket coupon.
• The EMD and the e-ticket routing sequence must follow the same order.
• The origin and destination of the EMD and e-ticket coupons must be the
same.
• The operating carrier of the EMD and e-ticket coupons must be the same.
• An EMD cannot be associated to more than one e-ticket or set of conjunctive
e-tickets.
• The validating carrier of the EMD must have an interline agreement with the
validating carrier of the e-ticket.

How to Associate an EMD With an E-Ticket


1. Make sure that the old e-ticket is already disassociated from the EMD record
(D).
2. Display the EMD record that you want to associate with the e-ticket. Enter:

Reissuing EMDs

This chapter includes the following topics:


• Overview: Reissue With EMDs below.
• Workflow: Reissuing an EMD on page 58.
• Preparing the TSM-P for Reissue on page 58.
• Examples of Reissues With EMDs on page 60.

Overview: Reissue With EMDs

What Documents Can Be Reissued?


An EMD can be issued in exchange for another EMD or for a ticket; and an e-
ticket can be issued in exchange for an EMD. You can process the following
reissues with EMD:
• EMD to EMD.
• EMD to e-ticket.
• E-ticket to EMD.
• Paper Ticket to EMD.
Many EMDs are issued (for the first time) as a result of an e-ticket reissue
transaction. Depending on the airline, some services (such as residual value,
penalty fees, and non-refundable amounts) must be issued as standalone EMDs
with an e-ticket reissue. They are defined by airlines as Additional Documents in
Exchange and are issued simultaneously with the e-ticket.

Why Reissue an EMD?


You may need to reissue an EMD due to a change in the service being provided
or due to a change in the flight itinerary of a passenger. For example, if a
passenger changes their flight itinerary, you may need to also reissue an EMD for
airport lounge access, or for an extra bag, to reflect the changes to the itinerary
and to ensure that the passenger receives the service they have booked.
Note: An EMD that has been issued by an airline may not be displayable by a
travel agent, and follow-up transactions such as reissues and refunds
may not be allowed.

Amadeus Electronic Miscellaneous Documents User Guide

When Can You Reissue an EMD?


When you try to reissue an EMD, the system automatically validates the eligibility
of the EMD coupon status and that the reissue is allowed according to the market
and airline business rules. For a reissue to be allowed:
• The status of the coupons must be O for Open for Use or A for Airport
Control. The EMD must not be consumed at issuance.
• The EMD and service must be defined as exchangeable by the validating
airline.
Note: If the service is defined as non-exchangeable by the airline, the
non-exchangeable (NE-) indicators are set to Y in the TSM-P
before the EMD issuance, and reissue will not be possible.

Workflow: Reissuing an EMD


1. Rebook the service or fee in the PNR.
o Cancel the existing SSR or SVC segment and book a new one.
For information, see Booking Chargeable Services on page 13.
2. Reprice the service or fee.
o Set the TSM-P to reissue mode using the entry TTI/EXCH.
For information, see Preparing the TSM-P for Reissue below.
3. Add additional required elements to the TSM-P, such as:
o Original issue information (FO element).
o Old form of payment.
o New form of payment, for any additional collection.
For information, see Preparing the TSM-P for Reissue below.
4. Issue the new EMD.
For information, see Issuing an EMD on page 35.
For practical examples of this workflow, see Examples of Reissues With EMDs
on page 60.

Preparing the TSM-P for Reissue


To reissue an EMD you can update the existing TSM-P, or you can create a new
one. In either case, the TSM-P must be set to reissue mode.

How to Set the TSM-P to Reissue Mode


To set the TSM-P to reissue mode, enter:

TMI/EXCH
Note: With this entry you can use only the FA element line number (/L) and
TSM number (/M) selection options.

58 Edition 7.0
Chapter 4 Reissuing EMDs

How to Set the TSM-P to Reissue Mode and Input the FO Element
1. To automatically generate the Original Issue (FO) element for the TSM-P
when you set the TSM-P to reissue mode, use the FA element line number
selection option (/L). To select line number eight, for example, enter:

TMI/EXCH/L8
Sample System Response:
FO105-8249300063M1HEL01JAN10/19420483/105-8249300063M1

2. Use the TMI transaction code to add the generated FO element to the TSM-
P. Enter:

Explanation: What Does the TMI/EXCH Entry Do?


When you use the TMI/EXCH entry to prepare an EMD for reissue, the system
sets the TSM-P into reissue mode and automatically updates the following fields

 The FO element is automatically generated when you enter the FA element line
number option (/Lx) in your TMI/EXCH entry. You must, however, manually insert
it in the TSM-P.

 The form of payment becomes the old form of payment (O/).


Note: For specific airline offices there is no form-of-payment processing, or,
both the old and new form of payment may be automatically filled in.

The system displays the automatically generated FO line:


FO105-8211300103M1HEL10FEBxx/19420483/105-8211300103M1

4. Insert the automatically generated FO element in the TSM-P and display the
TSM-P.

TMI/FO-105-8211300103M1HEL10FEBxx/19420483/105-8211300103M1
Note: There is no need to include a Start-Of-Entry sign (>) at the
beginning of the line, even if you cannot see one present.

If you do not display the EMD record (EWD) before you make the
TMI/EXCH/Lx entry (this does not apply to airline offices using the
EMD server), the system sets the original date of issue and the
issued-in-exchange-for date (if there is any) to the current date.

By default the coupon indicator is set to M and the coupon number


to 1. The other information is taken from your office ID and office
profile.

If necessary, you can edit the FO element before you press Enter.

Revalidating an E-Ticket With an Associated EMD

Explanation: Understanding Revalidation


When you revalidate an e-ticket the following rules apply:
• There is no change to the fare.
• There is no change in taxes.
• There is no change in the routing. The origin/destination airport can be
different, but must be within the same city. For example, LHR is an
acceptable alternative for LGW.
• The status of the coupons to be revalidated must be O (Open for Use) or A
(Airport Control).
• Revalidation is explicitly permitted in the fare rules.
Note: Exceptions to these revalidation rules may apply. Always check directly
with the airline.
When you revalidate an e-ticket that is associated to an EMD:
• The EMD coupons remain associated to the e-ticket after revalidation.
• The EMD itself is not revalidated as it is not flight and date specific, only
linked to the routing.
As there is no change in routing, there is no need to issue a new EMD. The
coupon in the EMD does not change, so it does not matter if the rebooked
segment does not appear in the TSM-P.
Note: The revalidation of e-tickets is not supported by all airlines in all
markets. For a list of airline-specific e-ticketing policies, enter HE ETT
xx in the Amadeus Information Pages (where xx is the 2-character
airline code).

Example: Revalidating an E-Ticket With an Associated EMD


Note: Not all agents can manually disassociate EMDs from e-tickets.

Refunding EMDs

This chapter includes the following topics:


• What Are the Refund Options for EMDs? below.
• How to Refund an EMD Using the EMD Number on page 84.
• How to Partially Refund an EMD Using the EMD Number on page 86.
• What Happens When You Refund an EMD? on page 91.

What Are the Refund Options for EMDs?


You can refund EMDs in the same way as you refund e-tickets, using TRF
entries.
You can select an EMD to refund in any of the following ways:
• By entering the EMD number.
• From the Query Report by entering the transaction sequence number.
• From the PNR by entering the line number of the appropriate FA/FHD
element.

Prerequisites
You can refund EMDs that:
• Have been confirmed in the sales report. If a sale has not yet been
confirmed, you must cancel it instead.
For more information about confirmed sales, see When Can You Cancel an
EMD Transaction? on page 99.
• Are totally unused or have been partially used.
• Have coupons with a status that is eligible for refund - O (Open) or A (Airport
Control). You must refund all the remaining coupons with eligible status; you
cannot refund only individual eligible coupons.
Note: A travel agent may not be authorised to display an EMD that has been
issued by an airline and follow-up transactions such as reissues and
refunds may not be allowed.

transaction is registered and you can display the transactions in the sales reports
with the usual sales report display entries.

What Transaction Type Codes Are Used for EMDs?


EMD transactions are registered and displayed in the sales reports with the
following transaction codes:
• EMDS for a standalone EMD.
• EMDA for an associated EMD.

Cancelling EMD Sale, Reissue or


Refund Transactions

This chapter includes the following topics:


• When Can You Cancel an EMD Transaction? below.
• How to Cancel an EMD Transaction From the Query Report on page 100.
• How to Cancel an EMD Transaction From the PNR on page 101.
• How to Cancel an EMD Transaction by Document Number on page 102.
• Explanation: Cancelling an EMD Transaction on page 102.

When Can You Cancel an EMD Transaction?


You can cancel (or void) a registered EMD sale, reissue or refund, that has not
yet been confirmed. The system checks if the coupon status of the EMD coupons
are eligible for cancellation.
When a sale or reissue is confirmed, it can no longer be cancelled, it must be
refunded instead.
Note: A cancelled transaction is sometimes called a voided transaction.

What Are Pending and Confirmed Sales?


When you first issue, reissue or refund an e-ticket or EMD, the transaction status
is pending. A pending sale becomes confirmed when the current sales period
closes.
The local settlement or reporting plans (BSP or ARC) define a confirmation rule to
indicate when a sale, reissue or refund is confirmed. When you display the query
report, you can identify a confirmed document by an asterisk (*), which is
displayed next to the sequence number.
Pending sales:
• Can be cancelled.
• Belong to the current sales period.
• Have a blank space after the sequence number in the Query Report.
• A pending sale becomes confirmed when the sales period closes.

© 2018 Amadeus s.a.s. - All Rights Reserved learning@amadeus.com 99


Amadeus Electronic Miscellaneous Documents User Guide

Confirmed sales:
• Cannot be cancelled.
• Have an asterisk (*) after the sequence number in the Query Report.

Chapter 7 Cancelling EMD Sale, Reissue or Refund Transactions

What Happens When You Cancel A Sale?


Here is an example of an FA element for an EMD with the EMD indicator D set to
T for Ticketed:
6 FA PAX 172-5297333620/DT6X/EUR722.32/09APR10/NCE1A0900/00045

Voided:
6 FA PAX 172-5297333620/DV6X/EUR722.32/09FEB09/NCE1A0900/00045
673/E6-7

The coupon status of the EMD coupons is updated from O (Open) or A (Airport
Control) to V (Voided). For associated EMDs (EMD-A), the system disassociates
the EMD coupons from the e-ticket coupons.
Note: When you cancel an e-ticket that has been issued with a Residual
Value EMD in exchange for an e-ticket or an EMD, the Residual Value
EMD is also cancelled by the system.

What Happens When You Cancel A Reissue?


For EMD reissues, the coupon status of the old EMD coupons that have been
exchanged is updated from E (Exchanged) to O (Open For Use) or A (Airport
Control). The coupon status of the new EMD coupons is updated from O (Open
For Use) or A (Airport Control) to V (Voided).
For associated EMDs (EMD-A), the system disassociates the new EMD coupons
from the e-ticket coupons and reassociates the old EMD coupons that have been
disassociated by the void transaction with the e-ticket coupons.

What Happens When You Cancel a Refund?


For a cancelled EMD refund, the coupon status of the EMD coupons that have
been refunded is updated from R (Refunded) to O (Open For Use) or A (Airport
Control). For associated EMDs (EMD-A), the system reassociates the reinstated
EMD coupons that have been disassociated by the refund transaction with the e-
ticket.
When you cancel the refund of an EMD, the system changes the EMD indicator
in the FA element of the PNR from R for Refunded to T for Ticketed.

How to Check if an Airline Supports the Cancellation Entry


To check if an airline supports the cancellation entry (TRDC), you can use the
Amadeus Information Pages. Enter:

• EMD Management Entries for Airline Control Desks Only on page 114.

Understanding EMD Management

What Is EMD Management?


To facilitate the smooth delivery of services to customers, and to ensure
operational stability, airlines often need to perform certain functions to manage
their EMDs and their EMD database. Specific entries are available to perform
these management functions.

Who Can Use EMD Management Entries?


Airlines that use the Amadeus EMD server (EMS) are authorised to use the
Amadeus EMD management entries. Some of these entries are available to
every airline office. Others are available only to specific offices that are defined as
airline control desks.
Note: If authorised by the airline, some EMD management entries can be
made available to travel agents.

What Is an Airline Control Desk?


An airline office can be defined as a control desk to allow the airline to manage
their e-ticket and EMD databases, and to perform operationally critical functions.
Every airline hosted on the Amadeus EMD Server (EMS) can use additional
entries for the management of its respective electronic document databases from
an office defined as a control desk.

© 2018 Amadeus s.a.s. - All Rights Reserved learning@amadeus.com 109


Amadeus Electronic Miscellaneous Documents User Guide

Prerequisites for Using Control Desk Entries


In order for your airline office to have control desk status, the following conditions
must be met:
• Your airline's EMDs must be managed by the Amadeus EMD Server (EMS).
• Your office IATA number has been defined as a control desk in the EMS (or
has already been defined as a control desk in the Amadeus e-ticket server
(ETS)).
• The ELC field in your office profile is set to YES. This field can only be
updated by Amadeus.
Note: Airlines using the Amadeus e-ticket server (ETS) may already have
control desks defined to manage their e-tickets.

EMD Management Entries for Airline Control


Desks Only
From an airline control desk, you are authorised to use all the entries that other
airline offices can use. In addition, you can use additional entries to perform such
EMD management functions as:
• Manually updating coupon level indicators in the TSM-P (including non-
refundable, non-exchangeable, non-interlineable and consumed-at-issuance
indicators).
For information see: Reference: TMI Entries to Update TSM-P Fields at
Coupon Level on page 25.
• Forcing an EMD reissue using the non-exchangeable indicator override
option in your TTM entry.
For information, see: How to Force a Reissue of a Non-exchangeable EMD
below.
• Forcing an EMD refund, using the non-refundable indicator override option in
your TRF entry.
For information, see: Reference: TRF Entries for Airline Agents Only on page
93.
• Locking and unlocking a travel agent.
For information, see: Locking and Unlocking an Agency below.

How to Force a Reissue of a Non-exchangeable EMD


You can force an EMD reissue by overriding the non-exchangeable indicator in
the TSM-P.
Once you have prepared the TSM-P for reissue and you are ready to issue the
new EMD, use the /OVNE option in your issuance entry. Enter, for example:

TTM/OVNE

TTM Transaction code to issue an EMD.


/OVNE Slash, override the non-exchangeable indicator option.

Note: If the old EMD FA element has not been automatically deleted by the
system, you must cancel it before you can issue the new EMD.

Locking and Unlocking an Agency

Why Lock an Agency?


An airline control desk has the authority to lock a travel agency to prevent it from
issuing electronic documents (both e-tickets and EMDs).
After an airline has imposed this lock, the agency is still allowed to do follow-up
entries (TWD, EWD, TWH, EWH, and so on) on EMDs that were issued by
them. However, e-ticket and EMD reissues are no longer allowed.

Appendix A

System Flow: EMD Processing

An EMD is processed in the almost the same way as an e-ticket. In Amadeus, the
main difference is that the EMD has its own database, the EMD Server (EMS),
which is not part of the e-ticket database, the E-Ticket Server (ETS).
1. The EMD is first issued by a ticketing system based on a booking in a
reservation system. In Amadeus the ticketing system is called Central
Ticketing Platform (CTP). An EMD can be issued by a travel agency or an
airline.
2. When a travel agency issues an EMD, the sale is transmitted to the country's
billing and settlement organisation (BSP or ARC) which are in charge of the
monetary settlement with the airlines.
3. The EMD issuance request is transmitted to the EMD server (EMS). The
EMD is created and stored on the EMS. The EMD record can be managed
(displayed, exchanged, voided, refunded, and so on) in the reservation
system.
4. For associated EMDs (EMD-A), a synchronisation takes place between the
EMD Server and the associated E-Ticket Server.
5. When the service is handled by the airport through passenger check-in and
boarding, for example, the airline's Departure Control System (DCS) can
access and update the EMD record in order to handle the service.
6. When all the services of an EMD are at a final status (Used, Refunded, and
so on), a report is sent to the airline's Revenue Accounting System.
