Default DFP Conflict

I’m trying to do a P2P trade using QuickTrade. I am getting a message about an DFP conflict. I recall someone telling me that sometimes you have to remove the DFP from your schedule before a trade will go through.

Anyone able to shed some light in this?
Thanks!!

It’s probably a conflict with the person you’re trying to trade with.

Is it for next month?? If not, it's probably the other guy who has a conflict.

DFP = duty free period, or day off. I’m guessing you are trying to trade for a trip that is outside the footprint of your current trip. I have never used Quicktrade, but with the TT in DECS, sometimes the HTMD command doesn’t work correctly, and you have to manually delete a DFP (day off placeholder) in order for the trip trade to work correctly. In DECS > HT > enter the info for the two trips, and follow the instructions to delete a DFP manually, HZ, and it should work.

I use quicktrade and have seen the DFP thing come up on rejection a time or two and had no clue what it was talking about... some other rejection acronyms as well I don't know. Your DECS instructions are 'greek' to me though. I just logged into DECS and typed 'HT' then enter and got "-A- TRIP TRADE NOT AUTHORIZED".

It's astonishing how many new guys don't know how to use DECS.

I wouldn’t call that astonishing. What’s astonishing is how little training the company gives on DECS.

not at envoy, but our company references DECS often in memos, no idea what it even is. I'm supposed to send an ACARS when I get it but only when I am in DCA and at the world.
