1.) To create the alternate fare table either copy an one of your existing fare tables (xxxfares.csv xxx=FAA airport code) OR make a new table called xxxfares-Y.csv (Y=alternate table id of 1-9 depending on the number of unique alternate tables required).

2.) Now edit xxxfares-Y.csv. Add/Remove/Edit your fare locations, in addition locate column D (FareTableID). For each location record type the “Y” of your file name. For example if this is your first alternate table use the number 1 for all locations in field D.
