FlightSpan™ Ops Release Notes 4.3.9 – FlightSpan Documentation

New Features:

Added the ability for the user to collapse multiple time-based loads into a single time-based load at any time for charged Payments, or prior to printing the receipt for cash-type Payments. This facilitates editing the route after the Payment is created. See the documentation on Managing Time Based Loads.

Added the ability to move a child load (FS_TBL, FS_ADD, FS_FXL) from one parent to another parent using the dropdown actions. See the documentation here.

Added a change-due calculator to the payment view details page to assist cashiers in calculating the difference between cash received and cash due.

Added a new checkbox protected by admin privileges to allow select cash type payments to be linked to a scheduled flight, manifest, or completed flight prior to the receipt being printed. See the documentation here.

Added the ability to specify hierarchy for rate data substitutions. See the documentation here.
Added formatting to help child loads (FS_TBL, FS_ADD, FS_FXL) be more visibly associated with their parent load

Added formatting to make it more clear which loads will be affected when deleting a parent load with children
