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.
