How to change an Generic Airline Partner to a Invoicing Airline Partner 

 

By default, Scope creates Airline Partners associated with the airline, utilizing the airline's general address. However, this can present challenges for EU organizations when processing the CASS invoice.
The CASS invoice may include a VAT amount, particularly when the transport occurs within the EU and the airline's invoicing address is in the same EU country.

This article outlines the steps to modify the details in Scope.

Step 1) Create a new partner with a creditor role, using the same creditor number as the existing airline partner if necessary. Use the address details and VAT number from the CASS invoice specification. We advice to use a Partner code same as the current general Airline Partner but extended with the country code. E.g: LH020-NL for the address of the booking office of Lufthansa in The Netherlands.
In case you also need one in Belgium, create LH020-BE as well with the Belgium address.

Step 2) Open the existing airline partner and remove the creditor and airline roles.

Step 3) Reopen the new partner and assign the airline role.

You should now be able to substitute the original airline in the incoming invoice with the new partner and complete the invoice.
