Getting Started
Main System objects are a carrier and a flight.
- Carrier is the airline that carries out a flight.
- Flight is a system object that is to be sold through reservation systems.
Flight as a system object has the following features:
Flight information is stored in the system as long as schedule is stored.
Business rules are system mechanism used for configuring system objects: flight (inventory, schedule), events (notifications, publication), aircraft layouts, communication with external systems for one or several flights.
Business rules conditions (parameter values) are applied to a specific group of objects.
Business rules mechanism eliminates the need to re-shape the entire data for a particular system object each time it has been modified, making it possible to adjust only parameters that differ from previously given. If when configuring an object user specifies some parameters that do not meet any of the existing business rules defined for the object being created, a new business rule for the object is created automatically. This avoids conflicts of different business rules. So all parameters of system objects are controlled by business rules mechanism, which automatically excludes the possibility of creating inconsistent object configuration.
User Workspace Technical Requirements
For efficient System operation user’s workplace should be complied with the specifications listed:
Processor | Performance not less than Intel Core i5 |
RAM capacity | 4 GB or more |
HDD capacity | 2 GB or more |
Operating system | Windows 7 or upper or Linux GUI 2.2x or upper |
The PC should be connected to the Internet and company LAN.
It is necessary to have PSS Amber: Inventory application installed on user's PC.
The appropriate access rights should be provided to users by the administrator.
Logging in
To log in:
1. Launch the Inventory application on your computer. As a result, the application will be started and the login dialog will be displayed.
2. Specify username and password in the Login and Password fields correspondingly.
3. Press Log in. The System main screen will be shown.
The application may be used by several users simultaneously. In this case, user settings for each user settings (language, time zone, logs, etc.) are stored not in the common server folder, but locally on users' computers. Therefore, please check your read and write rights for the folder where your data is stored. This folder directory is stated in the Logo → About section (click the Logo button in the top left corner and select the About line).
When running the application, access to the user folder is checked. If there is no access, then the following window will be shown:
It means, the system is trying to connect to the common server folder instead of local one and need your permission to perform that change. To run the application, click Yes.
