IB PNR for AA Codeshare

This is second time I've used IB (J) as an AA codeshare and still am not able to get an IB PNR. It appears you can check-in for IB (on their website) using name/Ticket number, but to update a booking (seat selection, meal selection, advance passenger info - etc) you need the IB PNR. AA gives me a 5 character PNR that does not work - I was told last time that AA codeshares are held in a separate DB and only merged into the IB DB at the last moment. (I have no idea if this is accurate or not.) I was able to select a seat (initially) via AA site, but I really wanted to very INTL doc info and select a meal. Anyone know if this is possible for AA codeshare?
