Primarily developed for airlines, this is a ready-to-use solution to handle the business accounting and risk man-agement of their operations in connection with General Sales Agents (GSA). This solution provides full support of all the transactions handled with GSAs from the flight ticket sales to the fulfillment of the commitments to sup-pliers all the way to the end of the financial settlement. Because sales revenues are generally higher than the level of liabilities, and the airline receives its revenue later, business transactions are fraught with several risks carried out by GSAs. This system helps to reduce this risk significantly.

The main advantages are within 3 areas:

* Ready-to-use product* Proven, tested application * Immediate implementation* Maintenance is simple and highly cost efficient* Rapid ROI (right after the system implementation )

A system tailored specifically for Airlines

- Modular design: Inside (used by the airline) and Outside (used by GSA’s)- Manages special ‘products’ and processes (e.g. ticket sales, stock management by ticket numbers)- Cooperating with the Amadeus system- This one system handles all aspects of the sales process all the way to the commission settlement- Providing information towards the financial and the general ledger system

Latest technology used

- Thin-client technology (accessible via browser and requires no desktop level)- Cross-browser compatibility- Secure (SSL) communication- Customizable graphics, images- Email-based notification system- Interface with other systems, databases (e.g. financial and accounting systems; by using webservice technolo-gies, BizTalk, etc.)

Technology

- Application server: Microsoft IIS 6, 7, 7.5- Database server: MSSQL 2005, 2008- Reporting by MSSQL 2005, 2008 reporting services- Technology framework: Microsoft .Net framework 4
