 +====== Useful tips ======
 +
 +Below you can find useful hints & tips which will help you in working with Leon.
 +
 +===== Integrations =====
 +
 +Leon is integrated with various external softwares dealing with: **sales**, **flight planning**, **fleet maintenance**, **handling**, **catering** or **fuel**.
 +Go to a section Settings > [[leon:integrations|Integrations]] and check possibilities.
 +
 +To get integrated with most of those softwares you need to:
 +
 +  - contact the software's Support and get ID/Login/Authorization Key and Password.
 +  - in a section Integrations open the one you wish to be connected with and insert credentials.
 +
 +If you come across any issues, please send an email to [[support@leonsoftware.com]]
 +
 +----
 +
 +===== X-COM =====
 +
 +You can add flights performed by your crew for other companies and monitor FTLs.
 +
 +  - Go to Settings > [[leon:fleet-setup|Fleet]].
 +  - Click 'Add new aircraft' and in a field 'Aircraft Type' insert **X-COM** and fill in other mandatory fields: aircraft short name, registration (i.e. X-COM or CREW) and home base.
 +  - Enter Settings > [[leon:aircraft-crew-positions|Aircraft Crew Positions]] - in the filter select an aircraft X-COM and mark appropriate flight positions for cockpit & cabin.
 +  - In a section Settings > [[leon:ratings|Ratings]] select crew members and add ratings for the airarcft X-COM.
 +  - You can now add flights on X-COM and check FTLs in a report [[leon:report-ftl-sheet|FTL Sheet]].
 +
 +===== GROUND staff duties =====
 +
 +If you need to add duties to the roster also for your GROUND staff (office, maintenance, sales, etc...) you can do that by adding an aircraft **GROUND** to your fleet (one ground aircraft is free of charge).
 +
 +  - Adding this aircraft should be done in the same way as it was done with all other tails - you just need to insert **GND** in a field 'Name' in an aircraft profile, fill in mandatory fields and assign appropriate [[leon:aircraft-crew-positions|Aircraft Crew Positions]] in a tab **Ground**.
 +  - Another step is to add [[leon:ratings|Ratings]] for previously chosen positions.
 +  - Crew with ratings on GND will appear in the [[leon:duties|Crew Duties]] roster, at the bottom of the screen.
 +
 +===== Flight documents =====
 +
 +You can monitor whether documents have been returned to the office by the crew or not.
 +
 +  - Email [[support@leonsoftware.com]] with the information what documents should be included in the list (i.e. FTL, PLOG, Load Sheet, Tech Log, etc...).
 +  - Once it's set up you will see flights with columns (documents) where you will be able to mark if a particular document has been returned to the office.
 +
 +===== Home Base Handling Requests =====
 +
 +This section can be useful if you often fly to certain airports (i.e. several times a day) where you use the same handling agent.
 +
 +  - Go to a section OPS > [[leon:home-base-handling-request|Home Base Handling Request]].
 +  - In the filter input airport code which is the airport of the service. If the same handling agent also operates on a different airport you can insert that airport's code in the second field.
 +  - Save the PDF file with the planned flights and send it to the handling agent.
 +
 +===== Custom airports =====
 +
 +If you come across a missing airport, airfield or helipad in Leon, you can add it manually to the system (option available for Leon users with admin privileges).
 +
 +  - Enter section OPERATIONS > [[leon:custom-airports|Custom airports]].
 +  - Click the link to add a new airport.
 +  - Fill in fields such as: Custom airport name (it should be a code if an airport has no name), Name (which can be the nearest town/city name), City, Latitude and Longitude.
 +
 +===== Crew duty requests =====
 +
 +You can set privileges to your crew so that they can send [[leon/duties#Duty Requests]] to the roster.
 +
 +  - Go to Settings > [[leon:privileges|Privileges]].
 +  - Click the group Crew and go to tab **DETAILS**.
 +  - Mark 'Crew App - Duty Requests' as **EDIT**.
 +  - All requests made by crew appear in brackets  {{:leon:icons:duty-request.png|}} and need to be either confirmed or rejected.
 +
 +===== Crew currency =====
 +
 +It is possible to adjust the number of days for some of the crew currency calculations.
 +
 +  - Enter section Settings > [[leon:crew-currency|Crew Currency]]
 +  - On the new page you can find several types of currencies where you can make adjustments: define number of days for particular currency and number of take offs, landings, sectors or block time hours.
 +  - You can check your crew currency status in a sections Crew Panele and Crew Duties by marking a checkbox **Show dot** in the filter and hoovering the mouse over the dot next to crew name. Crew currency is also displayed in a section OPS: hover the mouse over crew code and click '
 +Currency or Endorsements', or open right filter, tab CREW and select 'Currency' to view details.
 +
 +===== Labels =====
 +
 +You can label each Leon user - the label will appear in Crew Duties right under crew name as well as in the filter.
 +
 +  - Hover the mouse over {{:leon:icons:klucz.png?20|}} and enter section [[leon:phonebook|Phonebook]].
 +  - Click tab **Labels** and add as many labels as you need.
 +  - Added labels will appear in each user's profile - mark the appropriate label/labels.
 +  - In a section [[leon:duties|Crew Duties]] you can filter crew by person labels. In OPS you can check crew label when you hover the mouse over crew code.
