The Air Sales Scheduler module displays all approved proposals created using the Sales module as well as those commercial orders created using the Orders module. This application is mainly composed by a simple form on which are listed all scheduling process (e.g.: waiting, in progress, completed, etc) present for the current station.
As shown above, the main window will shown (and subsequently schedule) all approved order lines matching specific filtering criteria. Moreover, each order line will feature key information including:
•Scheduling station, source order, the related customer, line description, start scheduling date and deadline, number of schedule, scheduled and remaining events, number of events in white and black list, event type, programming method, scheduling priority, processing user, scheduling split networks, date of last update, allowed days for scheduling, and possible alternative schedules holding events.
NB: To prevent network connection “Timeout” due to inactive scheduling, the Air Sales Scheduler would re-establish the connection to SQL Server during scheduling.
