Web 24.7 Application Update (August 2024)
The following updates are a part of the 24.7 web release in August 2024.
New Features
Aircraft Events
Introducing a new item on the Schedule Board - Aircraft Events! Unlike Personnel Events, Aircraft Events do not require a person associated to save and are a dedicated way to take an aircraft offline and show as unavailable for reasons other than a maintenance event (Job Card).
There are 3 Aircraft Event Types:
- General
- Custom color on Schedule Board
- Feasibility information/blue alert (Trips and Quotes)
- Unavailable for Charter
- Custom color on Schedule Board
- Feasibility warning/yellow, conditional only if a charter RegSet applied (Trips and Quotes)
- Changes the aircraft Schedule Board header column color yellow for current status
- Offline
- Custom color on Schedule Board
- Feasibility critical/red alert (Trips and Quotes)
- Changes the aircraft Schedule Board header column color red for current status
- Trip and Quote page red alert banner for current status
Other aspects of Aircraft Events include:
- Aircraft Events may be created for / attached to Managed Aircraft, Fleets, or Vendor Aircraft.
- Create Aircraft Events by the "+" button or the right-click context menu on the Schedule Board. (Aircraft Events are not available on the legacy calendar / "Scheduling".)
- Create custom Aircraft Event Categories that apply to one or more Types (a similar structure to Personnel Events) that may optionally have their own custom colors on the Schedule Board.
- User Roles that may create or edit Aircraft Events:
- Account Admin
- Operations Manager
- Fleet Administrator
- Finance Manager
- Sales Manager
- Scheduling Manager
- Sales & Scheduling Agent
- Chief Pilot
- Create and edit custom template information to display on an Aircraft Event from the Schedule Board (similarly to Personnel Events).
