0.    INTRODUCTION

       This specification provides the definition of the Settlement
       transaction reporting message (STLRPT) to be used in Electronic
       Data Interchange (EDI) between trading partners involved in
       administration, commerce and transport.

1.    SCOPE

1.1   Functional Definition

       A Settlement transaction reporting message is exchanged between
       participants in the Billing and Settlement Plan (BSP) to report
       transaction data for processing and account settlement
       purposes. BSP participants include airlines, agents, Computer
       Reservations Systems (CRS) and the BSP Centre.

1.2   Field of Application

       The Settlement transaction reporting 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

       A Billing and Settlement Plan (BSP) provides a central system
       and a global standard for reporting and settling accounts for
       transactions in the travel, tourism and leisure industry.
       
       The Settlement transaction reporting message has two distinct
       functions:
       
       (1) for a Computer Reservation System (CRS) to report agent
       transactions to the BSP Centre (BSPC);
       (2) for the BSP Centre (BSPC) to report agent transactions and
       totals to BSP participating airlines.
       
       In the CRS to the BSPC functional message, the data is
       transmitted on an agent transaction basis. In the BSPC to
       airline functional message, the data is transmitted on an
       airline agent basis.
       
       Totals of all transactions for an airline by reporting period,
       agent and transaction type are only transmitted in the BSPC to
       airline functional message.
