When
Rare: an element is needed for a back-office system, a corporate client's accounting reference, or an airline keyword request.
Steps
| # | Entry | What it does | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | FK MIAUS2M01 | Sends the Amadeus Interface Record (AIR) to that office. | Only when another office's back office must receive it. |
| 2 | SK PARK QF HK2-SYD.CAR WASH/P1 | Keyword element to an airline. | Some airline services are requested this way. |
| 3 | AIANDEC00129 | Accounting element: account number. | A corporate client's billing reference. |
| 4 | AICCDV123 · AICRDECD12459745 | Cost centre · client reference. | Printed on Amadeus invoices / sent to back office. |
| 5 | RTS · RTY/AN1234 | Keywords only · retrieve by account number. | Find them. |

The element shows in the PNR (RTS for keywords).
Traps
- If your agency does its accounting in its own system, not through Amadeus back-office elements, do not add AIR/FK elements unless the senior agent asks for them.
