 +===== CREATE NEW SCHEDULE =====
 +
 +This option allows creating a schedule version where new schedules can be inserted either by uploading an SSIM or XLS file from a specific Client (e.g. travel agents) or by adding manually a new schedule without assigned aircraft.
 +
 +[{{ :leon:sched:sched_-_new_version.png?200|'Create New Schedule' pop-up window}}]
 +In order to create a new schedule click on {{:leon:sched:create_new_version.png?nolink|}} button.
 +
 +In the 'Create New Version' pop-up window insert the name of the schedule, select the Client, and add a short description (as per the screenshot on the right).
 +
 +Once the version is created, it will be available in the dropdown selection available at the top of the screen.
 +
 +{{:leon:sched_-_versions_dropdown.png?nolink|}} 
 +===== IMPORT =====

 +[{{ :leon:sched:ssim_schedule_uploaded_-_main_sched_view.png?200|Schedule uploaded from SSIM}}]
 +If a file with the schedule was provided it could be uploaded to Leon using the {{:leon:sched:import_ssim_button.png?nolink|}} button.
 +
 +It is possible to import schedules from SSIM and XLS files. XLS file has to be in the same format which is exported from Leon (the same columns and correct data). 
 +
 +Select the schedule to which the file should be uploaded and click on the {{:leon:sched:import_ssim_button.png?nolink|}} button.
 +
 +The 'Import' pop-up window will open where the file can be uploaded:
 +
 +Once the file is uploaded the flights will appear in the top part of the screen for the selected schedule, as per the screenshot on the right.
 +
 +If there are changes to the previously uploaded schedule, the new upload will replace them.
 +
 +The uploaded schedule can be modified as per the options available and described further down in this part of the Manual.
 +
 +---------
 +===== EXPORT =====
 +[{{ :leon:sched:sched_-_export_with_dates.png?300|'EXPORT' SSIM option}}]
 +To export the schedule to a file click on the {{:leon:sched:export_ssim_button.png?nolink|}} button.
 +
 +The schedule can be exported as SSIM or XLS file. 
 +
 +For SSIM It is important that in the aircraft configuration fields 'Passenger Reservation Booking Designator' and 'Configuration/Version' are filled in.
 +
 +The procedure is quite simple. Click on the {{:leon:sched:export_ssim_button.png?nolink|}} button and select the desired format of the file, and the place on your computer to which such file should be saved.
 +
 +Leon will save it to the .txt (for SSIM) or XLS file format.

-[{{ :leon:sched:creating sched.png?200|Creating a new schedule in SCHED panel}}]+This option can be used if the SSIM file has not been provided and the Schedule needs to be inserted **manually**.
  
-In order to build a new schedule you need to perform the following steps:+It is possible to build the schedule in 2 ways: 
 + 
 +  * Based on **'To date'** module - creating a schedule based on 'From/To' selection 
 +  * Based on **'Block hours'** module - creating a schedule based on the number of block hours allowed within the schedule 
 + 
 +In order to **build a new schedule** you need to perform the following steps:

-  - Insert the timeframe of the schedule (**From** and **To**), select the Aircraft, schedule Rotation (weekly, biweekly, triweekly) and the Trip Type +  - Select the model you'd like to use to build the schedule (**'To date'** or **'Block hours'**) 
-  - Choose the **Client** if applicable. In order for the Client to be populated, it needs to be added in the Phonebook and you need to type in the first 2 letters of Client's name+  - Select the Aircraft if known. If the aircraft is not selected, the schedule will appear in the top part of the screen with the //'TBA'// label. **IMPORTANT!** - schedules can be assigned to the **virtual** aircraft as well as the **actual** aircraft 
 +  - Select schedule Rotation (weekly, biweekly, triweekly) and the ICAO Type
   - Select the days on which the schedule should repeat (Mon-Monday, Tue-Tuesday, etc)   - Select the days on which the schedule should repeat (Mon-Monday, Tue-Tuesday, etc)
   - In the **Schedule** section you can insert the flight details. To add the next flight within the same schedule click on a **+** and the second line will be available. In the second line, you can also select a **'Day Shift'** number which means shifting your order for the selected number of days forward. I.e. if you select +1 and the order is supposed to start from Wednesday, then the order will start from Thursday.   - In the **Schedule** section you can insert the flight details.

 +It is possible to switch between **UTC** and **Base Time**.
 +
 +If the schedule is built based on **'Block hours'** model, you need to indicate the number of hours that the aircraft is allowed to perform.
 +
 +Once it is indicated, Leon will limit the schedule and the number of rotations up to to this limit.
 +
 +__**Example**__
 +
 +As you can see in the screenshot on the right-hand side, the schedule was limited to 30 block hours. There are 6h25m of block time within each rotation, which means that there can only be 4 rotations built within 30h worth of allowed block time:
 +
 +**4 x 06:25 = 25:40**
 +
 +{{:leon:sched:SchedB2.png?nolink|}}
 +
 +In 'General Settings' panel you can define **Bases** (and then assign aircraft and crew to particular Base).
 +
 +{{:leon:sched:bases.png?nolink|}}
 +
 +In SCHED main page, right next to the button 'Publish', you can find a drop-down box with the list of predefined Bases, as well as UTC (which shows by default).
 +
 +When switching between Bases, Leon will show appropriate ADEP & ADES times on the flight-belt (see example below).

 +{{:leon:sched:UTC timezone.png?nolink|}} {{:leon:sched:BT timezone.png?nolink|}}

 You can click on the flight and perform further actions, such as **modifying the schedule** or **deleting it**.
