Management of Air Freight Bookings for Airlines 
You as a logistics service provider use this function to book capacity directly with an airline and then to manage the air freight bookings. Due to the different task-specific views for air freight bookings, the function will be explained here.

Features
Capacity Management
This includes the following functions:
Use of air freight-specific codes, for example, location codes and handling codes
For more information, see Transportation-Mode-Specific Codes and Handling Codes.
Entering Capacities
You can define the mass or volume of the required capacity and display the whole utilization. In addition, you can define the ULD type of your unit load devices as well as the pivot weight. For more information, see Rate Definition and Maintenance.
Drawing MAWB Numbers
You can draw master air waybill numbers from a stock. Depending on the process, you either draw these numbers manually or the system draws them automatically:
If you create the air freight booking by using report Creating Schedule-Based Freight Documents (/SCMTMS/MP_SCHED_CREATE_TOR) , the MAWB number is drawn automatically. For more information, see Schedule.
If you create an air freight booking directly, you can draw the MAWB number manually (under Follow-Up Actions)
When you assign a schedule to an air freight booking by specifying an air waybill stock ID, an MAWB number is drawn automatically. For more information, see Use of Schedules.
You can also enter MAWB numbers manually. The system checks whether the number is valid.
If the number has been drawn from a stock, you can no longer change the following data:
MAWB prefix
Local carrier
Purchasing organization
If you want to change this data, you must first return the MAWB number to the stock.
If you are dealing with a number that does not come from stock, or if you do not have any stock, the system displays a checkbox in order to permit the entry of this number. For more information about MAWB stocks, see Waybill Stock Definition.
Use of carrier categories, for example, airline codes (see Carrier Categorization)
Classifying goods, for example, with commodity item numbers (see Classification of Goods)
Printing a master air waybill or security manifest
For more information, see Printing.
