When using AMADEUS: Carry out this IMG activity according to the documentation below.

----------------------------

This IMG activity makes it possible for you to include discounts (such as annual or volume-based rebates) that your company has negotiated with specific airlines in SAP Travel Planning.

By entering enterprise-specific discounts in this activity, you can have the system apply these discounts in price queries for a selected flight and the subsequent flight reservation.

Definition Parameters

You define an airfare discount using following parameters:

  • Provider [mandatory]
  • Start and destination locations/geographical area (e.g. a flight segment between two cities) [optional]       
  • Flight direction (such as one-way or round-trip) [optional]               
  • Validity period [mandatory]
  • Flight cabin class [optional]
  • Booking code [optional]
  • Fare basis [optional]
  • Contract information:
    • Rate type [optional]
    • Discount type [optional]
    • Discount amount (absolute or percent) [optional]

You have the option to define a specific routing for a discount so that the discount only applies to certain flight segments between two locations.

Indicator Usage Is Mandatory

The Usage Is Mandatory indicator enables you to specify that when the airfare is determined, the system always selects a rate for which that discount is applicable - regardless of whether a cheaper rate exists (such as an enterprise-specific airfare rate).

Example

Requirements

You have already defined the geographical areas in the relevant customizing activities in the section Geographical Situation and assigned IATA locations to them.

Standard settings

The codes for IATA locations and airlines defined in the reservation system are already correctly set in the standard system for SAP Travel Planning.

  7. Using this procedure, create as many route segments as are needed.
