Entering Leg Details for Journey Log
The “Leg Details” tab appears by default on launch of the page.
The system displays the following in the “Leg Details” tab
Line # |
The number identifying the row in the multiline in which the flight, leg and station details are recorded. For every flight, leg and station record entered, the system generates the multiline row number sequentially on clicking the “Create Log” pushbutton. |
Enter the following fields:
Flight # |
The number identifying the flight for which the journey log must be created (Alphanumeric, 30). Data entry in this field is mandatory, if the “Flight Status” drop-down list box is set to either “Cancelled” or “Substituted”. The flight number must be defined in the “Flight Assignment” business component. |
Leg # |
The number identifying the leg of the flight (Integer). Data entry in this field is mandatory, if the flight status is set to either “Cancelled” or “Substituted”. The leg number must be valid for the specified flight number in the “Flight Assignment” business component. |
Note: If the “Flight Details Validation Basis” is set as “Assignment” or “Flight #” in the “Set Options” activity of the current business component, then the “Flight #” and “Leg #” combination entered for each leg should be valid values as defined in the “Flight Assignment” business component.
The system displays the following field:
Departure Station |
The station from which the journey begins. The system displays the “Starting Station” of the first leg of the journey. |
Enter the following fields:
Arrival Station |
The destination station of the flight (Alphanumeric, 32). Mandatory. Data entry in this field is mandatory if the flight and leg numbers are not specified. Arrival Station code should be a valid value as defined in the ‘Common Masters’ business component, if the “Flight Details Validation Basis” is set as "Required" in the Set Options activity of the current business component. Leave this field blank, if the flight status is set to either “Cancelled” or “Substituted”. Help facility available. |
Departure Date |
The date on which the leg of the journey starts (Date Format). You can also enter a date that is earlier than the “Flight Date”. |
Note: When a journey log is created or approved, the system updates the arrival date of the aircraft of the preceding leg as the departure date for the next leg. This is applicable only if the status of the previous flight is other than “Cancelled” or “Substituted”.
Departure Time |
The time at which the leg of the journey starts (Time Format). Data entry in this field is mandatory, if a value is entered in the “Flight #” and “Leg #” fields and if the flight status is set to “Delayed”, “Diverted” or “Air Turned Back”. Otherwise, the system displays by default the schedule departure time from the “Aircraft Routing” business component. Leave this field blank, if the flight status of the aircraft is set to “Cancelled”, “Substituted” or “Ground Turned Back”. |
Note: If the departure time is not defined in the “Aircraft Routing” business component, the system displays by default the departure time from the Flight Schedule/Flight Code defined in the “Flight Assignment” business component.

Data entry in this field is mandatory, if the “FH Log Mode” of the aircraft is set to “Actual Flight Times” in the “Aircraft” business component. Leave this field blank, If the “FH Log Mode” is set as "Hobbs Meter Reading" for the Aircraft Registration number or if the flight status of the aircraft is set to “Cancelled”, “Substituted” or “Ground Turned Back”. |
Arrival Time |
The time at which the leg of the journey ends (Time Format). Data entry in this field is mandatory, if a value is entered in the “Flight #” or “Leg #” fields and if the flight status is set as “Delayed”, “Diverted”, or “Air Turned Back”. This is applicable only if the “FH Log Mode” for the aircraft is set as “Actual Flight Mode” in the “Aircraft” business component. The time entered in this field must be earlier than the “Landing Time” and later than the “Take Off Time”. Leave this field blank, If the “FH Log Mode” is set as "Hobbs Meter Reading" for the Aircraft Registration number, or if the flight status of the aircraft is set to “Cancelled”, “Substituted” or “Ground Turned Back”. |
Hobbs-Out |
The readings recorded from Hobbs meter, during take off of flight. The system retrieves a. The “Hobbs-In” value identified for the last leg of the journey log as the “Hobbs-Out” value If a preceding Journey Log is in “Fresh” status for the Aircraft Reg #, b. Latest updated “Hobbs Meter Reading” value for the Aircraft Reg # as defined in the “Aircraft Parameter Master” in the “Hobbs-Out” column if no preceding journey log is in “Fresh” status c. Zero as the value in “Hobbs-Out” column if the parameter mapped to “Hobbs Meter Reading” base parameter for the Aircraft Reg # is not initialized in the “Aircraft” business component. Leave this field blank, If the “FH Log Mode” is set as "Actual Flight Times" for the Aircraft Registration number. |
Hobbs-In |
The readings recorded from Hobbs meter, during landing of flight. Ensure that a value is entered in this field, If the "FH Log Mode" is set as “Hobbs Meter Reading” for the Aircraft Reg #. The value entered here must be greater than or equal to “Hobbs-Out” value. Leave this field blank, If the “FH Log Mode” is set as "Actual Flight Times" for the Aircraft Registration number |
Note: If the “Landing Time” field is left blank, the system considers the “Arrival Time” as the landing time.
Note: If the “FH Log Mode” is set as "Actual Flight Hours" and the “Enforce Sequential Reporting of Journey Log” is set as "Allowed" in the current business component, the “Departure Date” and “Departure Time” must be greater than or equal to the “Arrival Date” and “Arrival Time” of the last leg of the latest preceding journey log for the Aircraft Reg #, with reference to UTC.
Note: If the Flight # and Leg # exist in their respective fields, if the “Arrival Time” is not entered and only if the “FH Log Mode” is set as "Actual Flight Times" for the Aircraft Reg # as defined in the “Aircraft” business component, then the system considers
The “Sch. Arrival Time” retrieved from the “Routing Master” business component as the “Arrival Time” for the “Flight Status” as “On Schedule”,
The “Arrival Date” and “Arrival Time” as the sum of the “Departure date” and “Departure Time and Est. Travel Duration as specified in the “Flight Assignment” business component for the “Flight Status” as “Diverted”.
The system displays the following fields:
Block Hours |
The difference between the departure time and the arrival time of the flight (Time Format). |
Flight Hours |
The total time between the take off and the landing of the flight (Time Format). The flight hours are computed as the difference between take off date/time and landing date/time, If “FH Log Mode” is set as “Hobbs Meter Reading" for the Aircraft Reg # then Flight Hours is computed as the difference between Hobbs-Out and Hobbs-In values. Example: if Hobbs (Out) reading is 100.3 and Hobbs-In reading is 102.5, then the flight time is updated for 2Hrs 12 Mins (02:12). . |
Delay on Dep. (HH:MM) |
The delay at the time of departure of the flight in terms of hours or minutes. This value is computed as the difference between the scheduled departure time and the actual departure time of the flight. |
Delay on Arr. (HH:MM) |
The delay at the time of arrival of the flight in terms of hours and minutes. This value is computed as the difference between the scheduled arrival time and the actual arrival time of the flight. |
Note: The system computes and displays the delay on departure and delay on arrival while creating and/or approving the journey log. The system performs this only when the flight status corresponding to the aircraft is either “On Schedule” or “Delayed”. Both the values are computed in UTC time zone.
Enter the following fields:
