AA Record Locator and PNR

Just made a reservation with the AA RTW desk for a DONE4 ex-BKK. I must agree that the service was knowledgeable and efficient - much better experience than the QF Premium desk.

Almost the first question he asked me was ex-??? and then whether I was going to get CX to issue or a TA - clearly done this before!!!! He tried to re-direct me to make the reservation with CX as otherwise they wouldn't be able to see/ticket an AA made reservation - a valid point, but I assured him it would be a TA in BKK.

Only took 5-10 minutes for the entire thing - mixture of dated and open segments. He had to put me on hold for 3-4 minutes to check whether RIC-LAX AA 2461 (direct with a stop in DFW) was allowed given I already had 5 other NA segments - came back assuring me it was fine (which was not in doubt ). Even was able to give me the info for the AA BKK ticketing agent.

But all of the above is by the by. At the end of the reservation I asked for the Record Locator. He gave me the AA reference (I confirmed this with him). So my question is: Is there a way I can determine what my GDS (I guess Sabre?) PNR is? For instance I want to see my reservation on checkmytrip.com or virtuallythere.com or viewtrip.com whichever is applicable. I can see the reservation on AA.com but only for the dated segments (not the open ones). I tried the AA Ref in all of the sites and couldn't bring up my reservation.
