Assistance with putting line number in the CTP system:
Your TA number is required to be able to book travel through CTP. In addition, you must also provide the line number on which the airfare charge appears. The format should follow this schema:
1. Your 5-digit travel authorization number (with 5 leading zeros)
2. The airfare charge line number formatted as 5-digits (add leading zeros to line number to total 5-digits)
Example: TA number 38749 with airfare on line #3: 0000038749-00003
Q: Where can I find the line number?
A: You will find your line number for air travel in front of the airfare expense line.
