Tariff

  • The tariff must match the selected Source (for example, if the selected Source is International, an international tariff must be used).

  • Click the Tariff field label to access a list of valid tariff codes. You have the ability to access the Tariff look-up in the Inclusions section of Fares (International, US/CA, and Add-ons) and download a list of all your fare tariffs by clicking the Download button. Follow the on-screen prompts for directions regarding saving the file.

  • When a generic wildcard value is used, the query set must only contain a single query number in the criteria set.

Fare Class/Family

  • This is an editable field that is not required and defaults to blank when the screen is first opened.

Fare Family Positional Match
 
You can match to a fare family where the alphanumeric characters listed are in specific positions. A symbol is used to match to a designated position of one or more alphanumeric characters within the fare class. Additional alphanumeric characters may or may not follow the designated alphanumeric characters. 
 
Option 1 – Whole Number 
 
Exclamation point (!) 
Numbers are applied as a single unit and will be treated as a whole number in the match process. 
 
Example: W!!M1! will match W21M1A or W2AM1B7 but will not match W21M17 or W2AM17B (‘W’ must be in position 1, ‘M’ must be in position 4, ‘1’ must be position 5. ‘1’ must remain a whole number; therefore, position 6 must be an alpha character). Having the ‘7’ in position 6 changes the ‘1’ to ‘17’.   
 
Option 2 – Position Only 
 
Ampersand (&) 
Numbers are matched as individual characters, each based on its position. 
 
Example: W&&M1& will match W21M1A, W2AM1B7, W21M17, or W2AM17B but will not match W21MA1 or W2AMB1 (‘W’ must be in position 1, ‘M’ must be in position 4, ‘1’ must be position 5. ‘1’ does not have to remain a whole number; therefore, position 6 may be an alpha or numeric character). Having the ‘7’ in position 6 does not impact the ‘1’ in position 5, each are matched individually.
