6.1.3 Example of creating a batch E-mail

¡@

The E-mail must be structured in such a way that the receiving party can both re-route and parse the message in order to break out the individual component parts for on forwarding to the Airline.

It is essential that in a batch mode, the messages arrive with the Airline prior to receipt of the consignment and, in this mode, the recommendation is for transmissions to be made at least every 30 minutes. Some Agents are likely to agree flat file and batch processes directly with the CCS provider, with whom they may also have bilateral agreements.
