Schedule Import

The Flight Schedule Import - Standard Schedule Information Message (SSIM) import is only available from Desktop.

You can find it through two ways:

• Open Desktop - Factory Schedule - Schedule Wizard.
• Typing in Wizard in the Search field then clicking Schedule Wizard icon.
  

Flight Schedule Import Procedure.

1. Select a SSIM file. The Wizard detects if the import file is made in local or UTC time.     
   
2. The Wizard checks your database for errors, such as missing:
   • Airline Prefix
   • Versions
   • Stations
   • Terminals.
     
     
3. Note the following settings:
   • Data - You can let the wizard help fix versions and config problems.
   • Active/Create - Select if the wizard shall create and activate.
   • Create versions and configs - This will create versions and configs according to what is in the SSIM.
   • Use default versions and configs - This will use the defaults from the Versions and configs database.
   • Use/create simple versions and configs - A simple version and config will be created based on the SSIM.
   • If you don't get any data in the result column, it´s either because the SSIM file is incorrect or the filter you used doesn´t match data from the SSIM file.
     
     
     
4. Note the following settings:
   
   • Period - The default period is the one from the SSIM file, but you can select a different period.
   • Filter - Derives from Leg filters. If you use filters, you can add multiple SSIM files with different filters without deleting the already imported ones , such as different prefix or STC.
     
     
   • Duplicate handling - The duplicate handling is more like a compare and "do something". Depending on the above selection a correction/removal will be done to the found flight.
     
     
5. Before you save, some statistics will be available. In the Info section, you can check and uncheck to filter what you like to see in the result window. This has no effect on what changes will be made to your schedule.
   Up to here, you can abort the import by clicking cancel instead of save. You cannot undo after clicking the Save button.
   
   
6. After the import, you need to reload your Gantt to make the flights visible.
