The task list concept is a way to monitor any problems in your setup. It can be crew, flights, delays, etc. All rule-driven events can be monitored. The task list is individual to each user log-in, but tasks can be copied to other users.
Accessing and using the task list
You access the task list in the top right corner of the screen.
It is divided into three sections:
- Options
- Task Filters
- Task Filter Groups.
Options
The tasks can be grouped and sorted in ascending or descending order.
Group By:
Select how you want the warnings to be grouped.
Sort By:
Select how you want the warnings to be sorted.
Task Filters
Click the ALL Task icon then the New button.
From the Task Filter dialog, you specify the conditions for what you want to monitor.
In this example, we will make a filter for Uncovered flight.
Category:
When you point to a category in the drop box, a tooltip will show you which rules are available. In this case, select Incomplete.
Datatype:
We will select Company Activity as Crew Coverage is a part of that.
RuleName:
Select Under coverage rule.
Filter:
Select how you want the task to search.
Note: The rule itself can have built-in filters that restrict which period will be displayed on the Gantt.
