4. Content (III) Administration Authorization to change public views

5. Planning Mode SFS - Airline Authorization
Limited access to import and maintain airline specific SFS
No access to other airlines’ schedule
Recommended to centralize resource planning on the airport level (Templates)
Create day process (for one airline or all) should be controlled by the airport users

6. Planning Mode SFS - Compare Airline Versions
Compares Seasonal Flight Schedule of airlines
Lists the differences by flight
Provides the ability to print the result
Improved by adding “Ignore Periods” option

7. RMS Configuration Bar Element Rules
Provide the ability to define which flight attributes should be displayed on the allocation bars
Different displays for each allocation types
Multiple texts and background colors available
Multiple rules can be defined and assigned different priorities
Ability to define different rules for different resources

8. RMS Configuration Equipment Allowed Rules
User friendly way to enter single rules
It uses a so called ‘Bingo Chart’ where the user can select the aircrafts which fit on a specific spot
Green means the aircraft fits
Yellow means the aircraft physically fits yet it is not desired (preferential rules)
Red means the aircraft does not physically fit

9. RMS Configuration Dependency Rules
Provide the ability to define dependencies between resources of different types
The dependency rules work in operational mode as well as in planning mode (SFS, Templates)
Business rules can still be used to define dependencies

10. Operational Flight Schedule
“Build Turn” Improvement
Provides the ability to swap aircrafts within one transaction
Use system parameter to automatically build turns based on aircraft registration

11. Operational Flight Schedule
“Aircraft on the ground” validation
Validation is configurable per system parameter
When actual time is entered the system will verify that the aircraft is not already on the ground

12. Operational Flight Schedule
Updatable registration attribute and enhanced search
Registration is editable in the table
Ability to use multiple search option in the find bar
Use | as OR operator (e.g. AA|F9)

13. Operational Flight Schedule
Overwrite business logic with business rules
Available for account calculation
Configurable as a system parameter “OpsSetAccountBy)
Three possible values
Airline, Aircraft and NONE
NONE value setting disables the internal business logic and allows to set the account number per customer defined business rules

14. Operational Flight Schedule
Account calculation for resource allocations
Mostly relevant for multiple tows for turns with different tail numbers (Aircraft sold on the ground)
First allocation receives arrival’s account number
Last allocation receives departure’s account number
Any allocation in between receives the account number from the previous allocation

15. Operational Flight Schedule
Validation of account number
Helpful to easily recognize charter operation
Displays different background color when the account number is different than the account number assigned to the tail number (owner)

16. Operational Charts Moving partially active bars
Possibility to drag the allocation bars when actual time is set
Before moving the bar the user is required to confirm the action

17. Operational Charts Chart property editor
Provides the ability to customized chart appearance (color, font, default color schema)
Individual for each user
Available in each chart

18. Operational Charts Resource closings editor
Editor available within the chart
Accessible in the context menu
Closing note is displayed multiple times on the bar for visibility purposes (especially for long term closings)

19. Operational Charts Show alternatives
Provides possible resource allocation alternatives
System calculates the alternatives based on the configured conflict and preferential rules
User has the option to select the resource group which should be considered for the search

20. Administration Authorization to change public views
Provide the ability to control the changes of public views
Authorization available as a user role

21. Administration Configuration for “OPS created” Reference data
Configurable as a system parameter “OpsCreatedData”
Provide the ability to control which reference data should be automatically added when not available in AODB
Especially useful when flight information is received through interfaces
Available for Airport, Aircraft, Airline, Aircraft Type reference data

22. Administration Auto process configuration (I)
An additional, more user friendly option to the configuration file on the server
Allows the authorized user to configure the system wide scheduled jobs, such as actual time settings for flight records (TMO, ONB, ATA, OFB, OFF) and actual times for resource allocations.

23. Administration Auto process configuration (II)
Scheduled jobs configuration can be done
Configuration file only
GUI only
File and GUI combined
Note: Configuration in the GUI mostly useful for completion rules configuration
