For an overview of the WebFOMS features, refer to the Aircraft Characteristics screen article. The features described in that article can be applied to all screens.
Edit
For instructions on how to make modifications on the WebFOMS screens, refer to the Modify / View Aircraft Characteristics article. It uses the Aircraft Characteristics as an example; however, can be applied to all WebFOMS screens.
Screen
Screen is the default view when you first enter a WebFOMS screen. When Screen is selected, you can view all records that exist in the system. Select the arrow in the first field of the WebFOMS screen to access the dropdown menu to view the list of available records. Only items that exist in the database are shown in the dropdown list.
The Flight Groups feature is used to filter the flight list, so that individual dispatchers only see the flights that they are responsible for. Dispatchers also have the option to see flights for another desk if required. Normally, the Dispatch Manager will assign flights to their individual dispatchers based on their operations (domestic vs. international). Refer to the Add a Flight Group article for further instructions. The purpose of this program is to allow the user to create and manage flight groups.
Note: The following descriptions represent the typical access and privileges given to users designated as Dispatch Managers/Supervisors. Users with dispatcher privileges will have limited access to a subset of the screens presented.
