In 1, clarify when users need to download each form - e.g., do they always need the Deem form and only sometimes the ETSI form? in 1b, please identify the ‘attached document’ - no doc was attached to this topic except a word doc with the same content as on this page (now deleted). | Needs SME response | In 2, specify how they submit the completed forms: Is there an online process? Mail? How long does it take? | Needs SME response |

This Process information above originally was written per below. This info was confusing and included all the text below. Some of this is internal only for Travelport and shouldn’t be seen by users. Please verify the rewrite above. Process (original text): The process to request emulation is for the agency to contact their Travelport Account Executive. The Travelport Account Executive completes an internal form on the Travelport side called the API Form located on the TP-internal intranet, Homeport. Once this online form is completed, it will produce a document to be signed by the agency. The signed addendum is then sent to the designated contacts mailbox, by the Travelport Account Executive. Deem would never see this form. This process applies to all of the TP API Products. The contact would advise the Account Executive the process is completed, who would, in turn, advise the agency. The agency would then communicate this completion to Deem, by opening a Deem Support Case.

Sabre Emulation

These steps in the original table were confusing for me as to who the doer was and where the action needed to take place. Please verify the rewrite above, as it isn’t possible for TechComm to perform a technical edit of these steps. | Needs SME review |
