PRO-file Plus Build

PRO-file Plus Build
Transfer Codes
Add blank lines
Include passenger or segment related information
Include information for multiple passengers.
Copy across multiple PRO-file levels to build new PRO-files
Create PRO-files with a 200 line capacity
Use the quick build format to create business or personal files in one entry
Using new Transfer Codes to Build PRO-file lines

Include these two new line transfer codes in a PRO-file line to:

Create a blank line that never moves to the PNR - B transfer code
Include passenger and segment related information - R transfer code
To: Enter
Create blank, never move line 25B
Mileage Program Data 9R/MP*DL123456789
Associated itinerary remarks 10R/RMA:LIMO WILL BE WAITING

Note: When updating existing PRO-files begin entries with RC:

You can include information for more than one passenger in a business or person file.  Client identifiers distinguish passenger information and associate their specific data to their PNR. Use the C identifier in a PRO-file line to distinguish information for each client.

Include information for multiple passengers.
To: Enter
Name filed for the first client (C1) 3OC1N/N:VANE/H MS
Phone field for the first client (C1) 4OCQP/P:ATLR/404 987-1234
Mileage program information for first client 9RC1M/MP*AA123456789Q
Name field for second client (C2) in  PRO-file 3OC2N/N:LANE/P
Phone field for second client (C2) 4OC2P/P:ATLR/404 398-3948
PNR remark for second passenger 9OC2H/n:5PREFERS TWIN BEDS

Notes:   A maximum of nine client identifiers (C1-C9) may be used in one profile.

When you create a profile line with client identifiers and secondary qualifiers, insert the client identifier after the transfer code (Y,O,R,N) but before the secondary qualifier (H,P, etc) (e.g., 4OC2P/P:YTOR/416 987-1234.

When passenger and segment-related data is included for multiple clients, profile lines should be created combining an R transfer code with the specific client identifier (e.g., 9RC1M/MT*AA123456789).

Building PRO-files with Increased Line Capacity

Apollo Help: HELP PROFILE-BUILD

The maximum number of lines per PRO-file increases with PRO-file Plus form 128 to 200. When you create PRO-files, you should organize lines to allow full use of the increased capacity and make data easier to find and move.

Suggested Guidelines for Using Increased Line Capacity

Separate general business from client specific information

Use the same client identifier (e.g., C1) to define all PRO-file lines for a specific client.

Cluster all information for a passenger in the same section of the PRO-file.

Create the first line of each new passenger related section on lines of similar numerical increments (e.g. every 25 lines).

Copying from Multiple PRO-file Levels

In addition to the existing copy functionality, you can also copy form:

A business file to build a personal file

An entire PRO-file without using line numbers

You are not limited to copying from the same PRO-file level.

To: Enter
Display the existing business file S*APCO
enter the copy format and include the new personal file title. BPP/C/APCO-HALL
Redisplay the new personal file S*R
Make any necessary changes 1Y/N:HALL/GLORIA
End the build process BE

Note: New PRO-file lines can be inserted and existing lines can be rearranged during the build process.  

To copy specific lines from a business file to a new personal file

To: Enter
Display the existing business file S*ACME
Enter the format to copy lines BPP/ACME-CASE+1+3*6
Redisplay the new personal file S*R
Make any necessary changes 1Y/N:HALL/GLORIA
End the build process BE

Note: A maximum of 200 lines can be copied to create a new PRO-file.

Quick Building PRO-files

With Pro-file Plus you can quickly build business and personal files with one build entry.  End items (+) link the title and up to 12 lines of data.  The format cannot exceed 960 characters.

Use the following function identifiers to quick build PRO-files:

BQB - business file function identifier
BQP - personal file function identifier
