Sabre is another GDS.

Client Base or TRAMS are good options.
Okay, I'm lost.

What programs can open GDS invoices?
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Whatever GDS you are using you should call the help desk and see what programs integrate with their systems.

Amadeus has a ton of back office programs that are designed by third party suppliers.

Oh. I was just posting how I always do that after each change because I hate the Simultaneous changes messages and then have to re do everything.

If  you book a pax on LY for next day and it auto cancels because its in the queue and didn't get ticketed right away. Do you re book in same PNR or cancel and make a whole new reservation?

In Sabre you could do § (End Item - key above enter) which works all the time instead of enter and reentering, ; in Amadeus only works at RF;ER

Sabre is also much better at handling Simultaneous changes.

How does gmail get this flight info? Does it pull it out of the email? Lookup the flight #? PNR?

It pulls it from the text of the email.
Btw, never a good idea to publish your confirmation numbers.
