Resource Management Overview
The MyFBO definition of a resource is anything that can be scheduled and rented to a customer. Resources fall into one of four categories: aircraft, flight training device, staff (instructors, scenic pilots, charter / fractional crew, mechanics), or other (e.g., classrooms, written test computers, courtesy cars, block heaters).
Managers can add resources to the system, and view and update information in existing resource records, from the Manage Tab / Resource Management menu.
In the screen shot shown below, note the small blue and red question mark icons next to the different menu options. Clicking on these in your MyFBO system will open help topics specific to the adjacent option.
Resource Management Menu
This menu is very important. For flight operations, the information contained in resource records is integral to using all the automated components of MyFBO efficiently. Managers should routinely verify that resource information is complete, accurate, and up-to-date. The possible menu options available are listed below, and links are provided to more detailed information.
This option is used to add aircraft, FTDs, or flight staff to the system for scheduling.
The option is used to access the complete resource record for a specific resource.
This report provides a listing of all resources and associated data, with the option to click through to update an individual resource record.
Defining cockpit types using this option is the first step in tracking customer checkout in different cockpits.
This report provides a listing of all aircraft resources and associated data from the Aircraft Information, Aircraft Fuel and Fluids, and Aircraft Rental Limitations segments of the individual aircraft resource records. Options are available to click through to update the individual records.
This report provides a listing of all staff resources and associated data from the Staff Information segment of the individual staff resource record, plus the information from the Certificates & Ratings and Medical Data sections of the linked customer record.
This report provides a listing of all flight staff resources and associated data from the Certificates & Ratings section of the linked customer record, plus any checkouts recorded in the Time in Type section of the linked customer record.
If Charter flight reservations are enabled, this option allows for the temporary entry of brokered aircraft into the system. Full utilization data is not maintained in the system for brokered aircraft (no resource record exists), and brokered aircraft do not appear on the Daily Schedule. Staff users can create charter reservations for brokered aircraft and these reservations can be dispatched, checked in, and financial transactions prepared. Recorded flights in brokered aircraft are calculated as charter flights in Duty Time Tracking.
This option is used to bulk enter duplicate time clock records when a number of employees attend a staff meeting or other special event.
This report provides a quick view of base availability for all flight staff so managers can determine where adjustments are needed or which staff do not have standing schedules set. The most frequent scheduling problems arise from staff not having a standing schedule.
Managers can review and set routine and out of the ordinary time off for flight staff. These settings control when flight staff will be available to be scheduled.
This option provides bulk review/editing of specific information for ALL resources at once.
