You can access the Jump Seats through this icon and/or tab:
The jump seat dialogue is available under Human Resource> Jumpseater.
The basic dialogue contains a list showing all called 'Jump seaters'. To edit, copy, or delete a person in the list, check the checkbox on the line you want to edit and click the corresponding button.
If the Show Active checkbox is checked, the list will display only active jump seaters in the Jump Seats Edit dialogue.
Creating a new Jump Seat request
- Click the NEW button.
- Enter in the applicable fields in the edit dialogue. All fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory. Click the SAVE button when you have completed it.
- After the Jump Seats edit dialogue is completed, you will receive a confirmation message. The new jump seater profile will appear in the Jump Seats list.
Note: If you want the Country field to default to a particular country, set this as default in the Country dialogue window. In the APIS field, if the setting is configured for the Master Crew List (MCL), this Jump seater(s) will automatically be added to the MCL list.
For more information on setting up MCL, you can refer to the APIS article or contact Customer Support.
