Mileage Earned

[k doshi]

How do we handle the Mileage Earned.

1) These can be a cash amount that the Customer can redeem. Here we will only update the Mileage earned status when the customer books a new itinerary.
2) It can be adjusted in a new Flight booking amount. In this case we need to call FFMS during the price calculation of the Itinerary.

Also there is also a section saying Customer selects awards travel& system verifies mileage availability.

Does it mean only when the customer selects Awards travel he will be awarded the Mileage earned.

Thanks for the replies

I agree with you. The use cases contain lot of vague things.

Make some assumptions like this is what has been supported and these things can be supported by extending the design like ...

This way you can justify your design. This is how I am proceeding with my assignment.

IMO
The mileage earned is not supposed to be updated at the time of booking. This should be updated when the travel takes place - as in real life.

I think it refers to redemption of award points for free travel rather then the other way.
