File Management Summary

 

To perform a file download, follow these steps:

  1. To perform a download, click the Download button button, or right-click a row in the table and then click the Download option from the pop-up menu. The following dialog box appears.

  1. Type a name for the file you are downloading in the File Name field. This is a required field.

  2. Click either the Comma Delimited, Fixed Format, or Excel radio button. The default is set to Comma Delimited.

    • When Excel is selected and the number of transactions exceeds 60,000 records, the file will automatically be converted to a zipped comma delimited file.

  1. Click either the Download Record Layout or Upload Record Layout radio button. The default is set to Download Record Layout.

  1. Click either the Zipped or Unzipped radio button. The default is set to Zipped.

    • When a requested download exceeds 5MB, the file will automatically be converted to a zipped file.

  1. For US/CA downloads, click either the Base Amount or Total Amount radio button. The default is set to Base Amount.

    • The Fare Amount option is available for US/CA downloads only. The option is enabled or disabled depending on other selected download criteria.

  1. Click the Yes radio button to Include Alpha 5 Star Fare Class and Add-on Zone in the downloaded Excel file. (The download format must be set to Excel.) The add-on record will include the add-on zone which contains the cities applicable to construct “to” and does not relate to the origin and destination cities that are in this add-on record.

  2. Click the button.

  3. The Downloads tab on the Status Dashboard appears.

  4. From the Downloads tab, click the Download link under the Download column for the file you want to either open or save to your computer (see image below).

  1. Upon clicking the Download link on the Downloads tab (seen in the image above), the File Download dialog box appears (see image below) if you’ve selected a zipped file; otherwise, the downloaded file will open in the format requested (for example, Excel, Comma Delimited, etc.).

  1. Clicking the Open button on the File Download dialog box (above image) prompts a program such as WinZip (see image below) to open, which displays the text-only file. Double-click the file name to display the file in a program such as Notepad or WordPad.

    • If you are a Windows user, you will already have this program on your computer and you do not have to purchase any software. However, other products such as TextPad and EditPlus will also work. The list of text editing software is extensive, ranging from software that can be purchase to freeware and shareware (software that is available for use at no cost ). Check with your system administrator for further assistance.

  1. Clicking the Save button on the File Download dialog box prompts the Save As dialog box to appear. Use this dialog box to select a folder in which to save the file and give the file a name. Click the Save button after selecting a folder and entering a name in the File name field.

There is a record layout to support downloads for each Scope (International, US/CA, and Add-on), as well as for the location within Fares from which the download is performed (Selection Results, Changed Fares, and Batch). Please go to my.atpco.net for more information.
