Segments Screen

You can use the Segments screen to add, change, or delete air/rail segments for a ticket. The screen appears when you click the Segments link on the Invoice screen. The link is available only if the invoice item’s travel type is A (air) or R (rail).

Tip: You can increase the size of this screen by dragging an edge or corner to the desired size. This enables you to more efficiently view and work with data in the grid.

  1. Click ADD to insert a blank row into the Segment screen and enter all the appropriate data for the new segment. Segment number, airline, and both cities are required to save the segment.

    • To edit, click on the field and enter the new value.
    • To delete, select the segment and click DELETE or press Ctrl+Delete. A message appears, asking you to confirm deleting the segment. Click OK.

    Note: You can copy and paste segments for both non-group or group invoice items. However, group segments require a revenue type to correctly read city code translations on reports. To copy segments, tag (highlight) one or more segment rows on the Segments screen, and then right-click on the tagged segments. From the menu that appears, click Copy.

    To paste copied segments, ensure that the Segments screen for the invoice item to which you want to paste the copied segments is displayed, right-click in the grid, and then click Paste.

  2. When you are finished, click SAVE to return to the Invoice screen.
