The program description deals with the following:
The flight data can be updated, i.e. created, changed or deleted, with this program. Data which has already been stored can also be displayed.
Note:
The data for the airport is stored in the system and is needed for purchases of
duty-free goods at the airport. A background system provides this data in ASCII
format which is then imported via the MICROS Retail OSCAR POS ASCII interface.

All options available for update of the basic data have been described below.
As with nearly all programs the following also applies here:
Entry range permitted: numeric, 1 - 9999

If changes or deletions are necessary the data record can be called up from a number entry in the key fields. An unknown data record can be selected via the Search function.
Entry range permitted: numeric, 1 - 99999

Note:
The validity of a flight is not dependent on the validity date and the time. A
flight is valid from 18:00 hrs. the previous day to 06:00 hrs on the following
day. If date t 31.12.2099 is entered this flight data is still valid.
Entry range permitted: decimal, max. 11 pos.
Select a destination airport by clicking on the field and with a second click confirming the option selected.
The destination airport and the airport data are imported by a background system via the ASCII interface and can be updated via Application -> Organisation -> Airport.
Note:
The destination airport has a code linked to it which defines whether the destination is inland (I), within the EU (E), outside the EU (N) or on the Canary Islands (K). This code defines the price for items sold in the duty-free sector. If an item priced at "0.00" is sold in the duty-free shop this recording is rejected with message "Iteem blocked". Cigarettes, for example, cannot be purchased for inland flights. This item is priced "0.00" in the standard price level and items with this price can only be sold in the duty-free sector for flight destination codes "N" or "K". In this case the spezial price level 1 is selected for this item.

This item is priced "0.00" in the standard price level and items with this price can only be sold in the duty-free sector for flight destination codes "N" or "K". In this case the spezial price level 1 is selected for this item.
