+ | ====== Notifications ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | <box tutorial> | ||
+ | |||
+ | The main task of the ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | It is possible to define any number of notifications and from the point of user's view - each one of them will work **independently**. | ||
+ | |||
+ | In order to decrease the number of emails outgoing from Leon (which is beneficial for recipients), | ||
+ | |||
+ | For example: you changed STD at 12:00 UTC, then STA at 12:08, ADEP at 12:15, ADES at 12:22 (ADES change was the last one - the notification email about these changes would be sent out at approximately 12:32 (10 minutes after the last change). | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can also enable the **Trigger** which delays sending out email notifications by the number of minutes inserted into fields: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * **Schedule** - applies to schedule changes (ADEP, ADES, STD, STA, PAX, Flight status). For example if you want to set this time for one day (24h), please enter 1440 minutes. All flight details will be sent together with the schedule | ||
+ | * **Details** - notifications about further changes in flight details (all except flight schedule). The typical value here is something short - e.g. 45 minutes. | ||
+ | * **Reminders** - define time intervals (in minutes) when Leon should send email reminders regarding scheduled flights. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Notification Properties ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | As you can see in the screenshot there is a number of sections that influence the type of notification and the time when it was sent but also the content of such notification. Main areas of influence are explained below. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Grouping ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can set a notification so that flights added to Leon are grouped. If a flight from the selected group is changed, the notification will include the schedule of all flights from this particular group (including unchanged flights). If more than one flight is changed, one notification will be sent containing information about the changed flights along with other flights from the same group. | ||
+ | |||
+ | [{{ : | ||
+ | |||
+ | There are **4** options in grouping: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * 1. **None** - flights are not grouped, which means that each flight is being sent individually. | ||
+ | * 2. **Crew** - if the recipient of the notification is a crew member of the changed flight, they will receive information about all his flights in a given day (all recipients who are not planned on the flight will not receive the notification). | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Example__: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * 3. **Trip** - the entire trip of the modified flight is sent (even if particular legs are on different days). | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Example__: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * 4. **Aircraft** - all flights for the same aircraft from the same day (including the modified flight) are grouped into one notification email. | ||
+ | |||
+ | __Example__: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * 5. **Day** - all flights for the same day for ALL aircraft, including the modified flight, are grouped into one notification message. | ||
+ | | ||
+ | Both are separated trips for different clients. If changes are made to the 1st trip, in the notification email there will be also details of the 2nd trip (as it's on the same aircraft, on the same day). | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Show Country Notes** will include country notes inserted in the ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Only for airports** will send notifications only if the flight is scheduled to and from the airports inserted in this field. The airports need to be separated by commas. To receive notifications for all airports, leave this field blank. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Trip type** will send only for the type selected in the dropdown. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Format ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | * 1. **Default simple HTML** - new flight schedule details, crew codes, status, created by - are all in bold; all changes in flights are in bold; the size of email ~5 kB. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * 2. **Default full HTML** - deleted legs appear as < | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{: | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Displaying changes ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can decide how you wish to receive notifications about flight changes. | ||
+ | |||
+ | When you edit your notifications in this section you can find 3 checkboxes under ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | * **Bold** - all changes are in bold. | ||
+ | * **Red** - all changes in red font. | ||
+ | * **In square brackets** - all changes in normal font, in square brackets. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{: | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can combine the above 3 options, i.e. mark all 3 checkboxes, or 2 of them, or just 1 (see examples below). | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{: | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Also when **date of flight** is changed, the notification that is sent in **Full HTML** email format will have **a new date highlighted red** in the flight information table. | ||
+ | |||

+ | |||
+ | ==== Roster/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | [{{ : | ||

+ | |||
+ | **Schedule** | ||
+ | |||
+ | Specify how many **minutes before scheduled departure time** you want to receive notifications about further schedule changes (**ADEP**, **ADES**, **STD**, **STA**, **PAX**, **Flight status** - see screenshot below). | ||
+ | For example, if you want to set trigger time for one day (24h), please enter 1440 minutes. | ||

+ | |||
+ | Specify how many minutes before scheduled departure time you want to receive notifications about further changes in **flight details** (__all except flight schedule__). The typical value here is something short - e.g. 45 minutes (see example below). | ||
