What is a TSM in Amadeus?

A TSM-P is the stored price an EMD is issued from, as a TST is for a ticket: EMD type, validating carrier, service codes, amounts, the ticket it belongs to, form of payment. FXG creates it for bags and seats, TMC by hand for fees.

When

Before issuing an EMD: like a ticket needs a TST, an EMD needs a TSM-P.

What it is

TSM-P (Transitional Stored Miscellaneous, type P = pricing quotation record) holds the EMD's price and fields for confirmed (HK) chargeable SSRs or SVC segments: EMD type (A or S), validating carrier, RFIC/RFISC, coupon values, present to / at, in-connection-with ticket, fare, taxes, total, endorsement, commission, form of payment. It shows in the TSM index with a P flag.

Steps

#EntryWhat it doesWhy
1FXG · FXG/L8Prices the chargeable SSRs (all · line 8) and creates the TSM-P.Automatic — most bags and seats.
2TMC/VBA/L4Creates a TSM-P by hand for SVC line 4, validating carrier BA.Fees and residual values. /V is mandatory for agents.
3TQM · TQM/M1Displays the TSM(s).Check it.
4TMI/M1/FP-CASHAdds the form of payment to TSM 1.Every TSM needs one.

Graphic: Stored fares (TST & TSM) → Create TSM (needs an SSR or SVC) → validating carrier, passengers, services → View/Modify for fields and FOP.

Check it worked

TQM shows the TSM with RFIC/RFISC, amount, form of payment.

Traps

  • A TSM is deleted automatically when its flight, SSR/SVC or passenger is cancelled.
  • Flight change after pricing: remove the change flag (TMF) only if the price still applies.
