Configuration options for postflight screen – Schedule Master Support

There are several different table-driven options for configuring the postflight and postflight list screen.

The new postflight list screen lists outstanding postflights as well as recently completed postflights. The screen is configurable. If the club wants a user to be able to edit a postflight, there are 3 configuration variables (see below). In the screenshot below, the links for these options will only be displayed if the configurable requirements are met. by default these options will be off.

1. Number of hours after postflight that a user can delete the entry.

2. Number of hours after receipt entry that a user can delete a receipt.

3. Number of hours after the end of the month of the schedule end date/time that a user can enter a receipt for a previously entered postflight.

The postflight entry screen has other configurable options, some of which are depicted in the next screen shot.

Hobbs/Tach: Only Hobbs or Tach will be visible unless you are using one meter for Billing and the other for Scheduled Maintenance.

Club-defined fields (e.g. #Landings): There are up to 4 club-defined fields that are for text inputs only. These fields can be viewed in the Flight Trans screen, are available in the postflight download, and can be used in any custom postflight rules or custom reports that you might need. You can specify the following for these fields:

Label of the postflight field (e.g. # Landings, Quarts of oil)
Help text (optional - makes the blue question mark appear)
Required or not
Triggers the calculation (e.g. #landings may trigger a landing fee transaction)

Other fields:

Late/Missing Postflight Fee - If you want management to be able to easily invoice a fee for a missing postflight during the postflight dialog (see image below), you need to set up an item and we will need to assign this item to the table that configures the postflight.
Gift Cert/Coupon Code - If you want to allow a user to enter a gift certificate/coupon code, you need to set up an account and we will need to assign this account to the table that configures the postflight.

Custom invoicing rules: Some clubs have custom invoicing rules for minimum flight time, no flight penalties, landing fees, fuel surcharges, etc. Contact us for a quote if you are interested in a custom invoicing rule to help automate your postflight invoicing.

Receipt entry and payments: User fuel receipt entry and electronic payments will be options at the end of the postflight if configured. Let us know if you need information about these options.

suggested accounting line: Add a line item to enter fuel charges that one charges to own credit card so as to have charge entered into system. Club accounting would then know to look for a receipt for verification and pilot would have reminder of actual amount due inside schedule master
