Overview
These scripts reflect sample documentation that can be added to the GDS PNR as a trip requiring pre-trip approval makes its way through the process.
In order to ensure that the entries that need to be added AFTER the initial PNR creation are triggered when applicable, be sure to especially note the PNR Field Type in the Secondary tag/keywords column. If a script is noted with PNR Field Type = Pre Trip Approval, but is not configured as such, the corresponding entry will not be added to the PNR.

TAW - pending/waiting for approval
Although PNRs that are pending approval are generally blocked from dropping on the agency ticketing queue, you can enter a unique TAW for them, if required.

PTA | TAW - pending PNR Field Type = Accounting ID |
TAW - trip approved
If a "pending approval" TAW is used for trips waiting for approval, that TAW should be updated once a trip has been approved. This script will update the TAW when a trip has been approved.

PTA | TAW - approved PNR Field Type = Pre Trip Approval |
Queue delivery - ticketing queue block
This script is added to a Queue Delivery Option - Block itineraries that are triggered for pre-trip approval from passing to the normal ticketing queue (as they would if pre-trip approval was not enabled). This script allows itineraries that do not trigger pre-trip approval to pass to the normal ticketing queue as usual, but stops itineraries that trigger pre-trip approval from going to ticketing before they are approved.
Tag/keyword | Secondary tag/keywords | Script |

Queue delivery - pending/waiting for approval
This script is added to a Queue Delivery Option - Add this script to a queue delivery option if you'd like to drop on a queue PNRs that have been sent for pre-trip approval.
