I doubt there is a networked link to do it automatically.
The processing is autmatic. In order to get DTV for free, purchasers of the ELR seats have to use the same credit card for DTV as for the ELR purchase. This is fairly new, and only for those who purchase the ELR seats. Elite members who are seated in ELR seats must pay for DTV.
