Introduction
Searching for and administering crew
In this topic we review how to search for crew members, use the advanced search and how to add and remove users to the system. We also show how to change a password and email address associated with a user.
We estimate that this will take 10 minutes to complete.
Detailed Explanation
Click the Employee Number input field.
Ensure you are using the Crew tab.
You can search on a variety of criteria. Let's begin by searching employee numbers. You can either search for an entire employee number or part of the number that includes any string of numbers that appear in the employee number.
Enter 10 into the Employee Number field.
Click the Search button.
Click the Employee Number input field.
The search results all include items where "10" appears in the employee number.
Clear the previous entry in preparation for a different search.
Press the Backspace key.
Click the Last Name input field.
Let's now search on the last name of the person you want to find.

Let's identify this user as a Line Check Airman.

Click the OK button.
A warning message appears to inform you that you are changing critical information about the person.
ATTENTION
Doing this means that every run using this person is now invalid due to the changed data. Be sure to consider this before making the changes, and ensure you redo the run to validate it with the new information.

Let's view the activities for this crew member.
