 About The Schedule Booking System

How do I login?

The system can be configured to use one of several methods of authentication, including LDAP, Netware, and SMB. See your system administrator if you are having trouble logging in. Some functions are restricted to certain users, and other users will get the message You do not have access rights to modify this item. See your system administrator if this is not working correctly for you. If the system is configured to use LDAP authentication, this means that you login with the same username and password as you use for getting email i.e. "Mark Belanger" "MyPassword". Top

Why can't I delete/alter a schedule?

In order to delete or alter a schedule, you must be logged in as the same person that made the schedule. Contact one of the schedule instructors or the person who initially made the schedule to have it deleted or changed. Top

How do I make a recurring schedule?

Clicking on the desired time brings you into the booking screen. Select the appropriate Repeat Type. The plane will be scheduled at the same time, until the Repeat End Date, on the days determined by the Repeat Type.

A Daily repeat schedules every day. A Weekly repeat schedules those days of the week that you check under Repeat Day. For example, use Weekly repeat to schedule the plane every Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday; check those days under Repeat Day. If you check no days under Repeat Day, the schedule will repeat on the same day of each week as the first scheduled day. A Monthly repeat schedules the same day of each month, for example the 15th of the month. A Yearly repeat schedules the same month and day of the month, for example every March 15th. Finally, a Monthly, corresponding day repeat schedules one day each month, the same weekday and ordinal position within the month. Use this repeat type to schedule the first Monday, second Tuesday, or fourth Friday of each month, for example. Do not use this repeat type after the 28th day of the month.

How do I delete one instance recurring schedule?

My schedule failed to be created because of "too many entries"!

Any schedule cannot create more than 365 entries. There needs to be some limit on the number of schedules created. This number can be increased if necessary. Top

What happens if multiple people schedule the same schedule?

The short answer is: The first person to click on the Submit button wins.
Behind the scenes, the system is using a proper multi-user, multi-threaded relational database than can handle many thousands of simultaneous users. Top

What is the difference between "Normal" and "Checkride"
