An AWB normally goes through different phases (Status). From the moment when the AWB is created, either within a new AWB-serie received from an Airline or on a single basis, it is an established record on the AWB-Table. Fields are being populated with values along the way until the AWB is getting fully invoiced reaching the last status CLOSED.
| Status | Description | Triggered by the action: |
|---|---|---|
| CREATED | AWB received from Airline | This very first status of an AWB is set right upon creating a new stock of AWBs in COS. |
| ASSIGNED | AWB given/assigned to an agent | By applying the Assign AWB to agent in the AWB stock control menu or by creating a single AWB on the booking mask, the AWB status changes from CREATED to ASSIGNED. |
| BOOKED | AWB/Shipment booked | Upon finishing a booking, saving it and applyiing the function “Change Status – Set to Booked” (Ctrl.+F9), the status changes from ASSIGNED to BOOKED. To cancel a booking, but keeping the AWB nbr assigned to the Agent, you can simply apply the function “Change Status – Set back” (Ctrl.+Shift+F9). This action will erase all the booking-details, but will still keep the assigned agent. Applying the function “Change Status – Set back” (Ctrl.+Shift+F9) on an ASSIGNED AWB, the status will change to CREATED and the agent will be erased from that AWB. Which means that you could use it/give it out again to another agent. |
| FLOWN | AWB/Shipment partly or fully flown | As soon as the shipment has departed either on the first or on all flight-legs, you can set the AWB-Status forward to FLOWN (“Change Status – Set to FLOWN” (Ctrl.+F9). This action can be also done by a batch-function on the function “Dispo Overview” or by processing a received FFM-message setting multiple AWBs to FLOWN in one go. Setting 1 or more AWBs to FLOWN, the system automatically inserts the status code “DEP” on any flight-routing-line with a date&time which is situated in the past. Applying the function “Change Status – Set back” (Ctrl.+Shift+F9) on a FLOWN AWB, the status will change to BOOKED and the system will erase the status codes “DEP” in all flight-routing-lines. In a booking which is in status FLOWN, you cannot change Origin nor Final Destination of an AWB. To modify this, you need to set the status back to BOOKED first for such modifications. |
| “CHECKED”(in BOOKED or FLOWN) | AWB ready & locked for invoicing | Upon checking the relevant values of the AWB which affect the selling- and buying-rates as well as the Other Charges, you set the AWB to “CHECKED” by ticking the respective field on the Booking mask. Within this status the AWB is protected against further modifications as well as against the calculate function. As it’s ready for the invoicing run selling & buying. You can untick the CHECKED status anytime in order to open up the booking-fields for any modifications. |
| INVOICED SELLING | AWB invoiced to Agent | Upon invoicing the selling-side, either by running the final version of a CASS-File or an SRA (Sales Report Agent), the system automatically moves the AWB status forward from BOOKED/FLOWN to INVOICED SELLING. Once an AWB is in this status, you can no longer set the status back anymore. The only way to do modifications, is to use the DCM-tool. |
| INVOICED BUYING | AWB only invoiced to Airline | Upon invoicing the buying-side by running the final version of a “CSR Airline”, (Cargo Sales Report), the system automatically sets the AWB from CHECKED (BOOKED/FLOWN) to the the status INVOICED BUYING. Once an AWB is in this status, you can no longer set the status back anymore. The only way to do modifications, is to use the DCM-tool. |
| CLOSED | AWB is fully billed (both sides – selling & buying) | Upon invoicing the buying-side or the selling-side by running the final version of a “CSR Airline” or “CASS-Run”, the system automatically sets the AWB status from either INVOICED SELLING or INVOICED BUYING to the final status “CLOSED”. Once an AWB is in this status, you can no longer set the status back anymore. The only way to do modifications, is to use the DCM-tool. |
| VOID | Report/return back an unused AWB to an Airline | In case an AWB number has not been used and you want to give/report it back to the Airline, you can apply the function “Change Status – Set to Void” to set an AWB to the status VOID. This action will erase the routing-lines automatically in order that this shipment will not appear on any flight list anymore. This particular AWB will then appear on the next CSR (Cargo Sales Report) by which we return back to the airline as an unused AWB. |
