You can access the Cost Wizard through this button:
When you click the Cost Wizard button, this page appears:
The Cost Wizard contains a couple of pages. The first page is used to select wanted flights and definitions that shall be calculated on those flights.
The page is divided into a few parts. The Timetable allows the user to select flights for costs calculation (using ctrl or shift key one can select more than 1 flight/leg) with the support of following controls in the chart.
Field | Description |
| Activity Type | Select if you want to work with Roster Block (pairings) or Company Activity (legs). |
| Valiud From / Valid To | Period of flights that are to be shown for selection in the table below. |
| Activity / Activity Filter | Filters the legs within the selected period by the means of already defined activity filters in the current environment. |
| Preview | It load the legs into the table. |
| Refresh | It refreshes the table with the legs (i.e. when filter or period has been changed or one would like the legs data to be refreshed). |
| Definitions | Select cost definitions that shall be used during cost calculation. |
The second page shows calculated cost items. The flights are transformed into events and those events based on the selected definitions have their values calculated (the data are not aggregated in this step). If the user would like to process the data, they can select all rows (i.e. with ctrl+a) and copy them into clipboard. After, they can paste it into any spreadsheet to make a pivot table.
