Definition
Specifies whether a fare-driven availability query in a connected reservation system is possible, and how such a query is performed.
Use
In a fare-driven availability query, you receive a list of the best-priced offers in order of price. If the Active indicator is set, the fare-driven availability query can be started with the Best-Price Flight pushbutton in the Planning Manager.
If you use Travel Planning in the Web front end, the values of the indicator mean the following:
Active The fare-driven availability query can be selected by means of a checkbox
Standard The checkbox is selected as a default, but can be changed by the user
Mandatory A fare-driven availability query is always run
The possible settings for the fare-driven availability query are:
- Inactive
