Steps
Authenticate to the ARC IAR system using agency credentials and retrieve the settlement period
Pull the draft settlement report showing issued, voided, and refunded tickets for the week
Reconcile the draft against the agency's internal booking records and document number log
Submit the IAR settlement through the ARC portal or API and receive the settlement confirmation number
Download the remittance advice detailing net amounts due to or from each airline
Archive the settlement file and confirmation number for the required 2-year retention period
Known gotchas
ARC IAR submission deadlines are fixed weekly; late submissions incur fees and can trigger ARC audit flags on the agency account
Void transactions must be submitted in the same settlement period as the original ticket; cross-period voids require a separate refund transaction and cannot be undone via void
ARC requires all tickets to be issued under the agency's ARC numeric code; tickets issued under a different ARC code (e.g., a host agency's code) must be tracked separately for correct remittance
