The following fields appear on the crew complement.
Field | Description |
Name | Enter the name of the crew complement. This is a mandatory field. |
Shortcode | Enter the shortcode of the crew complement. This is a mandatory field. It is recommended that a standard format is established for ease of identifying when creating pairings. For example: 1112 = 1 Captain, 1 First Officer, 1 Purser, 2 Flight Attendants |
Comment | Enter a comment for the crew complement. This field is optional. |
HR type of pairing | Enter in the HR type of pairing by selecting the appropriate checkboxes. Refer to HR Types. Note: ONLY use if you are creating pairings. |
Active | If a crew complement is active, this checkbox must be selected. |
Locked | The complement is locked, meaning that it cannot be broken, e.g. when using the trade concept. |
Training | The complement is available for training sessions. |
Flight | The complement is available for flight legs. |
Filter | This is the crew category. It is the HR Filter. |
Minimum and Maximum | The minimum and maximum number of each category of crew needed. |
Order | This is the order of which the system assigns ranks if a crewmember has the requirements to meet multiple assigned ranks within the complement. |
Supplementary | Enter if there is additional crew needed. |
Special Roles | This is used if an additional Special Role is required to fulfill that role. This can also be achieved by creating an HR filter with that particular Special Role and using that HR filter in the complement. For example: If you need a Flight attendant that has the Special Role of French Speaking, you can either use the FA filter and add the French Speaking Special Role at the complement level OR create a new HR filter that consist of Rank FA and Special role French Speaking and use that HR filter in the complement. |
Part Separation
When you use pairings in N-OC Desktop, it is possible to separate the pairing composition into an individual crew complement.
For this to work correctly, the minimum and maximum must be the same. Every combination of crew after a pairing Part needs to exist as a Crew Complement. For example: If you are parting a FO from the pairing the following complements need to exist. One for the FO and another for the remaining crew (CA, FA, etc.).
