What is the SYSTEM ENTRY DATE of a manually entered document (when does the document appear in IAR)?

• A. The day after the ticket was entered
• B. The same date as the ticket was entered
• C. The date the ticket was issued in the GDS
• D. The date the record was created in IAR

Answer: (B)

System Entry Date reflects when a document first enters IAR. For manually entered documents, that date is the same day the ticket is entered into the system. It marks when the document becomes visible in IAR, not when it was issued in a GDS or when the system creates the record behind the scenes. The GDS issue date is relevant for electronically issued tickets, while the internal creation timestamp in IAR can differ from the actual entry date. So the date the document appears in IAR is the date you enter the ticket.
