Amadeus Web Interface for Airlines

Description of Ticket Quota System in Amadeus

The Ticket quota system (TQS) is a function within the central ticketing system that is used to monitor and limit the issuance of automated and electronic tickets.
A warning is displayed when the maximum quota allotment specified by the validating airline or by the local BSP is reached.
The TQS table is automatically refreshed and the TQS counts are reset by a batch process at the end of a TQS reporting period.

The TQS table contains two types of Quota allocations:

• Permanent Quota – The permanent ticket quota indicates the number of tickets that an agency is allowed to issue for each validating airline and within the BSP quota (YY) during a BSP reporting period. After updating the permanent ticket quota, the remaining quota is automatically adjusted to reflect the difference between the current quota and the issued counter.
• Current Quota – The current quota is different from the permanent quota, this indicates that the airline has requested an update for this reporting period only. The current quota is reset automatically by the system to match the permanent quota when a new reporting period begins.
