product supplier to ask if the application or product is
available for request or by a product supplier to a service
supplier to notify them that they will not be receiving
requests during a specified time period.
1.2 Field of application
The Travel, tourism and leisure product application status
request - interactive message may be used for both national and
international applications. It is based on universal practice
related to administration, commerce and transport, and is not
dependent on the type of business or industry.
1.3 Principles
PASREQ may be used for the following functions that facilitate
the operation of the interactive scenario for travel, tourism
and leisure:
(1) to ask the supplier of a service or product if the
application is available for requests. The request may specify
an application, a message type, a scenario, and a dialogue
type.
(2) to notify a service supplier, such as a travel agent
system, that they will not be taking requests for a specific
application(s), message type, scenario, or dialogue type, or
from specific agents based on location.
(3) to ask the service supplier, such as a travel agent system,
if they can send a message to update their data base.
