See Cost Summary on Manage Trip Page

One feature I really have appreciated is the See Cost Summary on AA’s flight management page. However, I’ve noticed a number of times it isn’t available. I was hoping to get some answers as to why this is the case so that I don’t waste any time in the future.

My understanding is that these are the situations in which it may not appear:

1. Immediately after booking, it may take up to 24 hours for the cost summary to be viewable.
2. Immediately after a refare, it may take up to 24 hours for the cost summary to be viewable.
3. After a schedule change by a partner, it may take up to 24 hours for the cost summary to be viewable.
4. Certain partner bookings made on AA may never have a cost summary attached.
5. Certain partner bookings made with a partner may appear on AA’s booking management platform but naturally will not have a cost summary.

Am I missing any other situations in which this summary might not appear or reasons for a temporary disappearance? It’s the only useful way to sometimes calculate a future or past LP earning and I certainly don’t want to waste an employee’s time looking up info in the case of temporary disappearances of the data.
