Part 1.0 Introduction
Part 1.1 General
The purpose of Airlines Reporting Corporation’s (ARC) Carrier Accounting Tape Specification (CAT) is to provide data
processing specifications for those persons who are responsible for Carrier’s Management Information and Accounting
Systems. The CAT is designed to document the interface between ARC and Carriers and to provide the user with
understanding of the data elements required for settlement.
Part 1.2 What is Output in the CAT

The CAT output contains data considered important for carrier use when completing such tasks as:
• applying transactions to a carrier’s unearned revenue account
• making general journal entries
• posting cash and credit card payables and receivables
• performing audits
• identifying the intermediaries involved in the ticketing between the customer and the carrier
Part 1.3 Responsibilities

The information contained in CATs is subject to periodic review and is updated whenever necessary. Airlines Reporting
Corporation is responsible for keeping these specifications up-to-date, accurate, and complete. ARC makes every effort to
ensure the CAT output complies with these specifications.
ARC highly recommends that each carrier develop automated pre-processing controls to:
• verify files received from ARC are indeed CAT files
• verify files received from ARC are for your ticketing carrier
• verify files are received and processed on a timely basis
• identify missing or skipped files
• verify each file is structurally correct and complies with the most recent CAT specifications
Please be advised the data used to compile data files are obtained from multiple sources. Carriers may wish to
consider using an antivirus software program to scan data files prior to opening them.
Part 1.4 Questions and Inquiries

Please contact ARC Carrier Help Desk (CHD) either by telephone, email, or fax when you have any queestons, need
assistance, or need to recreate a file.

5 v5.8
Part 2.0 General Information
Part 2.1 File Specifications
1. Records will be fixed length of 136 bytes per record and will be blocked at 30 records.
2. At this time ARC does not offer ASYNC transmission of these files.
3. New requests to receive CATs must be received by ARC prior to the first production processing period ending date.
4. New requests for CATs and requests for recreates cannot be performed for a Processing Period Ending Date prior to the
first production Processing Period Ending Date.
5. ARC is able to recreate CATs for the last eight Processing Period Ending Dates from the current Processing Period Ending
Date. ARC does not retain the data to recreate CATs beyond this time frame.
6. ARC is only able to create test files for Carriers not already receiving files in production.
Part 2.2 Transmission Schedule
Data transmissions are provided by cycle or by weekly concatenated file. It is the Carrier’s responsibility to retrieve the CAT
files from ARC as they are produced. The following is a schedule for the retrieval of files:
CAT Output CAT Output

Frequency Day of Week Eastern Time
Cycle 1 Friday 1:00 a.m.
Cycle 2 Saturday 1:00 a.m.
Cycle 3 Sunday 11:00 a.m.
Cycle 4 Monday 1:00 a.m.
Cycle 5 Tuesday 1:00 a.m.
Cycle 6 Wednesday 1:00 a.m.
Cycle 7 Thursday 1:00 a.m.
Weekly Thursday 4:00 a.m.
Cycles 4 (Monday) and 5 (Tuesday) will always be null.
ARC does not store multiple generations of CATs on-line for Carrier’s retrieval. If a Carrier does not retrieve it’s CAT files
within the allotted time window, the data will be overwritten when the same cycle is output the following week, or in the case
of a weekly CAT, the data will be overwritten when the CAT for next week is output. ARC charges to recreate a CAT file.

Part 2.4 Masking of Credit Card Account Numbers
A carrier can receive both masked and non-masked CAT files. The default is not to mask credit card account numbers.
ARC offers an additional service to mask credit card account numbers contained in the Form of Payment Account Number
(FPAC) and the Fare Calculation Area (FRCA) data elements in ARC Carrier Accounting Tapes (CAT’s). Carriers requesting
to receive CAT files with masked credit card account numbers need to complete and submit the form in Part 2.3 with the
option selected to mask credit card account numbers.
The process to mask credit card account numbers on the CAT is performed after all production CAT files are produced. Note
when requesting to receive CAT files with account numbers masked, the CAT transmission schedule published in Part 2.2 no
longer applies because of the additional process required to mask account numbers.
Credit card account numbers are periodically output in a Form of Payment area contained in the Fare Calculation Area
(FRCA). A Form of Payment area is identified by a “FP” (Form of Payment) identifier and terminated with the “FC” (Fare
Calc) identifier. All continuous numeric strings, characters 0 through 9, between 13 and 21 characters in length contained in a
Form of Payment area will be masked.
All credit card account numbers contained in FRCA that exactly match the credit card account numbers (both debit and credit)
that appear in the Form of Payment Account Number (FPAC) will be masked. All credit card account numbers that appear in
the FPAC data element will be masked.
The masking process will replace all digits of an account number with “X”’s except the first six digits and last four digits.

Part 3.0 Data Representation
Part 3.1 Currency
United States Dollars (CUTP = USD) is the default currency for ARC processing. ARC will only process transactions issued
in Non-USD if your carrier has made specific arrangements with ARC. Therefore, the default currency for all monetary data
elements on the CAT (TDAM, TMFA, COAM, FAMT, EFOC, REMT, etc) is USD. International Fare (INFR) is the only
exception to this rule and this data element can appear in any currency. The last section of this specification provides the
specifications for Non-USD CAT’s.
Part 3.2 Signing

For all fields except Commission Amount (COAM) and Effective Commission Amount (EFCO), value amounts to be paid or
sold by Agencies to Carriers are signed positive.
Un-signed value amount elements indicate amounts that have already been paid by Agencies to Carriers or the amounts that
will be paid in the current processing week.
For all fields except Commission Amount (COAM) and Effective Commission Amount (EFCO), value amounts to be paid or
refunded by Carriers to Agencies (e.g. commission of sales, refunded fare, etc.) must be signed negative.
For Commission Amount (COAM) and Effective Commission Amount (EFCO), value amounts to be paid by Carriers to
Agencies (e.g. commission of sales, refunded fare, etc.) must be signed positive.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
10 v5.8
Part 4.0 File Structure

The Carrier Accounting Tape’s file structure is very complex. The structure follows traditional data processing conventions
where the Header Records (Tape Header identifies the whole tape; Cycle Header identifies the processing cycle; Sales Report
Header identifies the Agency Transactions) identifies the data content of information to follow. All detail records should sum
to the totals contained in the Trailer Records (Agency Transactions to the Sales Report Trailer; Sales Report Trailers to the
Cycle Totals; and the Cycle Totals to the File Total).
There are three basic forms of detail transactions (Ticketing, Accounting, and Miscellaneous Documents). Both Ticketing and
Accounting transactions follow the same data structure. Miscellaneous Document transactions have their own unique
structure. If the transaction is a refund or an exchange of ticket(s) surrendered document records of the refunded or exchanged
document(s) are available with IAR transactions.
Carriers subscribing to cycle transmissions will at a minimum receive a File Header TTH/01, the Cycle Header TCH/02 for
that cycle, the corresponding Cycle Totals TCT/95, a Disbursement Totals TTT/98 record, and a File Totals TTT/99 when the
carrier does not have any data processed in that cycle.
Part 4.1 File Header Records
The Carrier Accounting Tape (CAT) is produced by the cycle or weekly accumulation of cycles for each of the Area
Settlement Plan processing centers. The data on the file represents all of the Agency transactions processed by the processing
center for the period and balances to the Carrier Report.
Part 4.1.1 File Header TTH/01
The File Header TTH/01 identifies the sending processing center and the intended recipient Carrier. The File Header has three
corresponding trailer record types:
1. Variable Remittance Totals TTT/97 provides totals for each unique collection date that results from Variable Payment
with Consolidated Check (PC) or Individual Check (PI) payment options. The record provides totals for sales
processed in the current week and does not include cumulative totals from previous weeks. The Variable Remittance
Totals TTT/97 record is only produced if variable payment transactions are processed in the current week.
2. Disbursement Totals TTT/98 carries information regarding disbursement of the net amount due to the named Carrier.
3. File Totals TTT/99 is a summary record for the file based upon selected value elements and counts of record types.
The values in the File Totals TTT/99 are the sum of Cycle Trailer TCT/95 records.
Part 4.1.2 Cycle Header TCH/02
The Cycle Header TCH/02 relates the transactions reported by each Agency to a given processing date, week, and month.
Each Cycle Header TCH/02 has a corresponding Cycle Trailer TCT/95 which contains the summary of selected value elements
and counts of record types. The value elements, with the exception of Net Cash Value Amount (NCVA) are the sum of Sales
Report Trailer TOT/94 records.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
11 v5.8
Part 4.1.3 Sales Report Header TOH/03
Each Sales Report Header TOH/03 record represents a single Agency’s sales report. The Sales Report Header TOH/03 names
the Agency, Report Period, Processing Date, Location of the physical documents (Box/Batch) and Currency Type. Multiple
reports for a single Agency may be on the file with a unique Report Period. Relative to each Sales Report Header TOH/03 is
the Sales Report Trailer TOT/94 record. The Sales Report Trailer TOT/94 provides summarization of Agency’s transactions
for the reporting period.
Part 4.2 Transactions
A transaction is defined as one or more Standard Traffic Documents or Accounting Documents issued between a customer and
a travel agent or between a travel agency and a Ticketing Carrier. Where a transaction comprises more than one document (for
conjunction purposes) the corollary is their sequential appearance on Carrier Accounting Tape (CAT) against at least one
Remittance Amount (even if, as in the case of even exchanges the entry is zero).
All Carrier Accounting Sales data records comprising a transaction will contain the same Transaction Number (TRNN).
The sequence of records within a transaction can be very complex. It is dependent upon the transaction type (sale, refund,
exchange), the sequence of various types of tickets and documents contained within the transaction and specific detail about
each type of ticket/document.
A transaction begins with Transaction Header TKT/06 record. This record provides Validation Date, Transaction Number,
Reference Number (Box/Batch, Sale Sequence Number and Credit Card Billing Sequence Number) and the number of records
in the transaction.
Transactions may have multiple Ticket Document Identification TKS/24 records as in the case with companion or conjunction
tickets. The Ticket Document Identification TKS/24 may also have a number of Fare/Tax Amount TKS/30 records to report
all of the taxes.
A transaction terminates with either a Form of Payment TKP/84 record or if a Certificate is present, a Certificate Record
TKP/85. An exception occurs when the transaction is either a refund or exchange, the transaction will terminate with a
SRD/92 Surrendered Document - Form of Payment record.
Within each cycle, transactions on the CAT are sorted by Currency Code, Agent Number, Report Period, Credit/Cash batch
(credit 1st and then cash), Sales & Exchanges/Refunds/Memos, and then by IAR transaction number.
Voided tickets/documents and voided transactions are not output in the CAT.
Part 4.3 Sequence of Form of Payment Records
When a transaction contains multiple Form of Payment Records TKP/84, the sequence of those records on the file is:
1. Exchange transaction(s) in input sequence.
2. Credit card, cash, or cash refund transaction(s).
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
12 v5.8
Part 4.4 File Structure and Record Format
“Super Long Record” format is the only format of the CAT currently produced by ARC. The “Super Long Record” contains

Part 5.0 Illustrations of Record Sequences

The following illustrations show all records in a typical file structure. Frequency of reporting and individual carrier options
will cause the file structure to vary from the illustrations.
The illustrations displaying the record sequence of passenger itinerary and various documents, displays the superset of all
possible record sequences for only the one itinerary or the one type of document as it can appear in all possible transactions.
For example the record sequence of Passenger Itinerary displays the superset of all possible record sequences of a passenger
itinerary in a sale, an exchange and a refund transaction which contains only that passenger itinerary.

Part 5.13 Null Cycles
ARC processes seven Cycles per week. Cycles 4 and 5 are normally null Cycles. If ARC processes a Cycle and there are no
transactions for a Carrier, a null cycle will occur. The structure of the null Cycle is as follows:
TTH (01)
FILE
HEADER
TCH (02)
CYCLE
HEADER
TCT (95)

Header records will contain Processing Period End Date (PPED) and Processing Date (PRDA). Trailer Records will contain
zeros in all COUNTS and AMOUNTS.
If a Carrier takes a weekly-consolidated CAT and has more than one null cycle, the Carrier will receive a TCH (02) Cycle
Header and a TCT (95) Cycle Trailer for each null cycle. Null cycles will appear on the consolidated tape in the order that they
were processed.

In exchange/reissue transactions, the TKS/30 FARE/TAX AMOUNTS records contain the Net amounts of the transaction
(New ticket amounts - Old ticket amounts). For these transactions, the fare, tax breakdown, and total of the new ticket(s) are
contained in the TKS/31 records. In the U.S., new tickets in reissue transactions are issued by the GDS as if they are an
original sale. Therefore these tickets reflect total fare, total tax breakdown, and ticket total of the full itinerary contained in
Fare Calculation Area of the ticket. The net value of an exchange/reissue transaction may result in an additional collection
from the customer, a refund to the customer, or no difference in value to the customer and the net value, positive or negative, is
always handled in the same reissue/exchange transaction. Also regardless of the net value of the transaction, taxes may be add
collected and refunded in the same transaction.
TKS/30 FARE/TAX AMOUNTS Records are not created for the second and following tickets of a conjunctive ticket set
because the taxes and fees are carried in the primary ticket of the conjunctive ticket set. TKS/30 FARE/TAX AMOUNTS
Records will be repeated as many times as necessary to account for all taxes, fees and charges.

In all exchange transactions, the TKS/30 FARE/TAX AMOUNTS record contains the Net amounts of the transaction (New
ticket amounts - Old ticket amounts), for primary ticket only in conjunction sets. The purpose of the TKS/31 Exchange New
Auditor Amounts record is to provide the new ticket amounts. At least one TKS/31 record is created for each Primary and
Companion ticket/document in an exchange transaction to output the Total, Fare, and tax breakdown of the new
ticket/document. Because the physical ticket is not available in IAR, this record is provided to Carriers for audit and
reconciliation of exchange transactions. Amounts are not signed, because they must be positive. No amount field within this
record is summed into a financial total of any other record.
The TKS/31 Exchange New Auditor Amounts Record is provided for the primary ticket only for conjunctive ticket sets.
TKS/31 Exchange New Auditor Amounts Record can only occur in an exchange transaction. Conjunction/Companion Ticket
Indicator (CJCP) cannot equal “CJN”. TKS/31 Exchange New Auditor Amounts Records will be repeated as many times as
necessary to account for all taxes, fees and charges.

There will be two TKS/39 records in each refund and exchange transaction to accommodate multiple commissions in the
transaction. In the first TKS/39 record, the first COAM data element contains the total commission of the exchanged coupons
and the second COAM equals zero. In the second TKS/39 record, the first COAM contains the total commission from the new
tickets and the second COAM contains the COAM on the penalty amount The Remittance Amount (REMT) is only populated
in the second TKS/39 records.
A TKS/39 Commission Amounts Record will not be created for the second and following tickets of a conjunctive ticket set
because Commission Amounts are carried in the primary ticket of the conjunctive ticket set. TKS/39 records are not created

Part 8.0 Multiple Currency Files
Part 8.1 Introduction
The purpose of this document is to convey the changes required to ARC’s Carrier Accounting Tape (CAT) to support multi-
currency processing.
Part 8.2 Requirements
Ticketing carriers that allow multi-currency processing in ARC will receive the same number of CAT files per week, one CAT
file per cycle or per week for each ASP Processing Center. Therefore the multi-currency transactions will be output in the
same CAT files as with the USD transactions. ARC will not offer the option to create CAT files by currency or country.
Changes to the CAT file specifications are listed below for multi-currency CAT files:
I. Record sequencing within all type of transaction or document types does not been changed for multi-currency CAT’s.
II. Multi-currency transactions issued for the same agency and time period are output in one sales report on the CAT.
Separate sales reports are not created for each currency type. Sales reports continue to have only one TOH/03 Sales
Report Header Record identifying the agency and the time period (Report Period) for the reported transaction.
III. The national currency of the Area Settlement Plan (ASP) country, United States Dollars (USD), is always assigned as
the Currency Type (CUTP) in the TOH/03 Sales Report Header record.
IV. Agent reports within the same CAT cycle are output in Agency Code Number (AGTN) and Report Period order.
V. Weekly CAT’s will continue to be output in Cycle order.
VI. The Currency Type (CUTP) and Decimal Places (DECP) data elements are assigned to a transaction in the TKS/30
record(s). More specifically, the Currency Type (CUTP) is in the currency of the Total Amount, Tax breakdown,
Calculated Fare Amount, Commission Amount, and Net Remittance. For example, if the transaction was process in
Mexican Pesos, then the TKS/30 CUTP will equal “MXN” and the DECP will equal “2”.
VII. USD transactions will appear as the first transactions in a multi-currency sales report (the national currency of the
ASP country), and then followed by transactions of the remaining currencies in Currency Type (CUTP) order.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
84 v5.8
VIII. Each currency type is processed in its own separate Processing Center. Separate Carrier Reports are currently
produced for each Processing Center and therefore a separate Carrier Report will be produced for each currency
processed.
A. The Transaction Number is a unique computer-generated number attributed to every record comprising a
transaction, to support the concept of a transaction-orientated system. The transaction number is set to “1” for the
first transaction of a processing cycle in each Processing Center and incremented by 1 for every transaction, until
all transactions of all Agencies have been written onto the file for that processing cycle and Processing Center.
Processing Multi-currency CAT’s does not change the manner in which Transaction Numbers are assigned. The
Transaction Numbers on the CAT’s continue to match the Carrier Reports. The Transaction Numbers (TRNN)
on the CAT are sequential for each currency processed but they will not be sequential in transaction order within
a multi-currency CAT file.
B. Multi-currency transactions are output in the same CAT files as the USD transactions. Therefore, CAT files with
non-USD processing center are concatenated with USD processing center(s).
1. Sequential sequencing functionality for the CAT file remains the same. Currently the Sequence Number
(SQNR) in the first record of a CAT file, TTH/01, is assigned 00000001. The sequence number thereafter is
increased by 1 for each of the physical records that follow, up to and including the last TTT/99 record.
2. The multi-currency concatenated CAT will retain the Processing Center Identifier (PCID) of the USD
currency Processing Center in the TTH/01 and TTT/99 records.
3. The one-byte numeric processing center code that appears as the first digit of a six-byte Reference Number
(REFN) will retain the processing center code of the multi-currency processing center. Therefore, the
References Numbers of all transactions on the CAT will match the Reference Numbers on the corresponding
Carrier Reports.
IX. Financial totals for each currency processed within a sales report are written to separate TOT/94 Sales Report Trailer
records. The total financial amount for each currency code is assigned to the CUTP data element in that record. The
number of decimal places assigned to the financial totals for a currency type is assigned to the DECP data element. If
the CUTP in the TOT/94 record is “USD”, it will appear as the first TOT/94 record at the end of a multi-currency
sales report and must be followed by the TOT/94 records for the remaining currencies in Currency Type (CUTP)
order. “No-sale” TOT/94 records are not created for currencies not contained within a sales report.
X. Financial totals for each currency processed within a cycle must be written to separate TCT/95 Cycle Trailer records.
The currency code for the totals are assigned to the CUTP data element in that record. The number of decimal places
assigned to the financial totals for a currency type is assigned to the DECP data element. If the CUTP in the TCT/95
record is “USD”, it will appear as the first TCT/95 record for that cycle followed by TCT/95 records for the remaining
currencies in that cycle in Currency Type (CUTP) order. Only one TCT/95 “no-sale” record is created when there are
no transactions processed within a cycle. The CUTP in that record is assigned the “USD” currency code. “No-sale”
TCT/95 Cycle Trailer records are not created for any currency other than “USD”.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
85 v5.8
XI. Financial totals for each currency processed within a CAT file must be written to separate TTT/98 Disbursement
Totals records. The currency code for the totals are assigned to the CUTP data element. The number of decimal
places assigned to the financial totals for a currency type are assigned to the DECP data element. If CUTP in the
TTT/98 record is “USD”, it will appear as the first TTT/98 record followed by TTT/98 records for the remaining
currencies in Currency Type (CUTP) order. Only one, TTT/98 “no-sale” record is created when no transactions were
processed within the file cycle and the cycle is one in which a disbursement a disbursement is made. The CUTP in
that record is assigned the “USD” currency code. “No-sale” TTT/98 Disbursement Total records are not created for
any currency other than “USD”.
XII. Financial totals for each currency processed within a CAT file are written to separate TTT/99 File Trailer records.
The currency code for the totals are assigned to the CUTP data element. The number of decimal places assigned to
the financial totals for a currency type are assigned to the DECP data element. If the CUTP in the TTT/99 record is
“USD”, it will appear as the first TTT/99 record followed by TTT/99 records for the remaining currencies in Currency
Type (CUTP) order. Only one, TTT/99 “no-sale” record is created when no transactions arewere processed within the
file cycle and the CUTP in that record is assigned the “USD” currency code. “No-sale” TTT/99 File Trailer records
are not created for any currency other than “USD”.
