Online Carrier Reports (OCR)

A Summarized Overview of Airline Sales Data by Month or Year

Online Carrier Reports (OCR) is the online version of Carrier Reports and Credit and Direct Reports. OCR is part of the core set of ARC products included in the cost of airline participation and is provided as an alternative to paper-based report distribution to airlines. Reports contained in OCR are maintained by ARC and are available online to airlines for the most recent three month period (90 Days).

The ARC Online Carrier Reports suite includes the following series of standard reports. For details and examples of these reports, please refer to Section 8 of the Manual for Carriers secured behind My ARC.

Carrier Report

This report is used to supply individual carriers with detailed sales data for all agency transactions processed for that carrier by processing center and cycle.

Carrier Credit Sales Report

Each carrier for whom a credit sale or credit refund is processed will receive, in addition to the Carrier Report, the Carrier Credit Sales Report. The Carrier Credit Sales Report summarizes all credit sales activity for a carrier by processing center and cycle.

Carrier Credit Sales Report (Daily)

Each carrier for whom a credit sale is processed will receive, in addition to the Carrier Report, the Carrier Credit Sales Report. The Carrier Credit Sales Report summarizes all credit sales activity for a carrier by processing center and cycle.

Carrier PFC Summary

The Carrier PFC Summary will reflect all PFCs reported by airport code. This report will show:

  • Airport Code
  • PFC Amount
  • The number and amount of PFC collected/disbursed
  • The number and amount of PFCs refunded/recalled
  • Net PFC amount

If an airport code is shown but no PFC amount is reflected in the PFC amount column, a PFC was collected and reported but ARC's PFC master file did not contain PFC data for that airport; the transaction should be reviewed to ascertain if the amount of the PFC should be refunded to the passenger, the amount should be transferred to a different PFC account, or the agent should be debited.

Carrier PFC Exception Report

The Carrier PFC Exception Report will list transactions that have a PFC error condition.
