Need to Know | Customer PNR Mapping will clone over from your template. Minimal changes may need to be made. Supported GDS Sabre Amadeus Galileo (Apollo) Worldspan
XML tags - Available at the top of this article If you need help with a PNR script, please open a Deem Support Case If you need more than one PNR mapping, you will not have the ability to clone. You must manually create the additional PNR mappings.
Example: If you are writing to different PCCs or even more than one GDS, you would need to manually create a second mapping within the site. Hint: You can work in more than one browser type at a time. You will need to use two different browser services, such as Google Chrome, Chrome Edge, Firefox etc. (or) work in incognito mode. |
PNR Field Type and Masking
Task | Process and Helpful Hint |
PNR Field Type | Example: If the agency is overriding the ticketing line, then the script(s) that generate the custom ticketing line should generally be associated with PNR field type Ticketing, not Name or Account ID. This is to maintain the appropriate flow of building a PNR. There are times where the ticketing line may need to be entered twice, or perhaps later in the creation/modification of a PNR. If the custom PNR field has a field type set to Ticketing, the line will write appropriately, but if it's set to Name or Account ID, then it may not.
Common PNR Field Types. Accounting ID: Standard script line, typically used unless the script involves one of the following line types. Remark: Remark Lines. Amtrak Lines. SWABIZ Lines.
Post ER: Script triggers after initial ER. Pre Trip Approval: Pre-Trip Approval scripts. Profile: Company Profile script or those associated with the profile. Received: Received from field. Ticketing: Ticketing Lines. UDID: UDID Reporting Fields.
|
PNR Mask | PNR Mask is located at the bottom of the PNR mapping. You will want to select those field types which you have customized in your scripts. To select more than one line item, hold down the Ctrl key on your keyboard and select each line item. In this example I have selected: Address, Agency Phone, Delivery, Email, FOP, Other Phone, Received, Ticketing.

Updating PNR Lines
| Process and Helpful Hint |
Suppressing line from triggering | You can make your template as robust as you would like, and then suspend/suppress a script from writing instead of completely removing it. This can be completed in two separate ways. Please configure based on what works best for you. Suppress by Changing GDS to one that is not being used in the site. Select the GDS you are not writing to; In this example I am selecting Apollo. Un-Check the GDS you are currently mapping to; in this example, I am writing to Sabre therefore I have un-checked the Sabre GDS. Click Save.
Suppress using Scripting format. Enter (/*) to the as the first line of the script. Enter comment line as the second line of the scrip, indicating date suppress, your initials and any explanation why. This is freeform but must start with a double slash (//). Enter (*/) as the last line of the script. Click Save.
|
Editing PNR Line | Edit line as needed; in the example below, I am changing the line number from 83 to 82. Keep in mind, you can change not only the line number but also the PNR Field Type, the Custom PNR Requirement (script) or even the GDS. Click Save.
|
Add PNR Line | Customize PNR Line. Enter Line Number: Can not use the same line number more then once. Select PNR Field Type: Select one that best represent the function of the line. Customer PNR Requirements: Enter script. Select Requirement Type: Script or Text. Select GDS. Click Save.
|
Remove PNR Line | Note: Please see above option for Suppressing PNR Line. |
Saving changes | You will need to take the following steps anytime you make a change or update to the mapping. |
