Sample for ticketing a new reservation using old OPEN ticket

[sharma-hitesh]

Here is what I want to achieve

I have a ticketed Air reservation, which was cancelled and according to the airline policies the unused funds are available for future booking.

Now in smartpoint, what I can do is: Take a new un-ticket Reservation and ticket this reservation using funds from th e above ticket
There are two ways in smartpoint, to do that

1. Using command HB:FEX<>

2. Using command RNEX<>

Is there anything in Universal API that can be used to achive the above smartpoint functionality ?

hi,

there isn't a service for it on the API

We have been using the TerminalService for some of the Terminal commands for which we did not find anything in uAPI
for example:

1. For generating approvalCode for a credit card transaction (> JV.... )
2. For adding a Billing Number in a rental booking. (> CAM....)

Can we do something similar with ticket exchange command also ?

you can use TerminalService for it, but it is not a structured service, the API would run like a pipe that receive and send without any transformation, so it needs a specific business logic to design and implement the workflow, create requests and parse the responses, etc. All the commands sent inside the TerminalService is not a API related subject, also some specific setting at APIxHost could limit some business needs, it is not the same as the Smartpoint. So, we do not recommend to use this option.

Thanks for the response. Yes I understand that terminal service is not a recommended way of doing things with API but since there no other way of doing what HB:FEX achieves, I was considering this as an exception

Hi,

contact the commercials to discuss about it, maybe another product could help you on this case, but it's depends on the timeline of both side, demands and offers.
