The Load distribution checklist item in the OPS panel allows you to record how cargo, baggage,
and mail are distributed across the aircraft's loading points for a specific flight.
Accessing Load Distribution
In the OPS panel, the flight checklist includes a Load distribution item. To open the load
distribution editor, click the Edit button next to the item.
Note: The Edit button is only available when all checklist changes have been saved.
If there are unsaved checklist changes, a prompt will appear asking you to save them first.
If the selected aircraft has no loading points configured, a message will appear informing
you that the configuration is not available.
If Leon detects an inconsistency in the aircraft's loading point configuration, a warning banner
is shown at the top of the editor:
"Aircraft load points configuration inconsistent."
Load Distribution Editor
The editor lists all loading points defined for the aircraft in a table. At the top of the editor,
a unit toggle (kg / lb) lets you switch the weight unit. The default unit is taken from the
flight's load management settings.

Weight is required whenever any other field in the same row (ULD, Code, or Note) is filled in.
-
Weight must be a positive number greater than zero.
-
For loading points grouped under the same number, the following combinations apply:
-
Filling in L and R — allowed
-
Filling in P alone — allowed
-
Filling in L alone — allowed
-
Filling in P together with L or R in the same group — not allowed (validation error)

Rows where Weight is empty are excluded from the save request and treated as empty.
Saving
Click Save to store the load distribution. If all validation rules pass, the editor closes
