The Out/In Deltas option will show differences between scheduled and actual Out and In times. These values are displayed in green if early or red if late.

The Block Deltas option will show differences between scheduled block times and actual block times. This is displayed as green for overblock and red for underblock.

The Ground time option will show the time on the ground between legs. These values are updated from scheduled ground times to actual or projected ground times as appropriate.

APDL can automatically calculate and log night time for you based on your OOOI times. Enable or disable this feature here.

Note

Entering Off and On times is not required to close out flights, however, entering these times will increase accuracy of the Auto Night calculation.

APDL can automatically forward several data fields from one flight to the next to streamline the data entry process. If enabled, Auto Forward Airports will forward the destination airport to the departure airport field of the subsequent flight during manual logging. Auto Forward Aircraft and Auto Forward Crew will forward the aircraft tail number and crewmembers respectively to the subsequent flight. Aircraft and Crew will not be forwarded if APDL detects a possible change such as a gate change between flights which likely indicates an aircraft change, or a deadhead leg which may indicate a crew change. Each of these Auto Forward features forward by one leg at a time and occurs when saving a leg.

APDL will prompt you when tapping cancel on an entry that has been edited to avoid losing data accidentally. If you would like to disable this feature, you can enable "Bypass Cancel Prompts".

The Preferred Airport Code selection allows you to set the default airport code format that APDL will use during airport searches.

AutoFill can be manually triggered without waiting for the time delay by tapping the "AutoFill Now" button on the .Leg View v7.Next. This may result in incomplete data as it does take some time for the cloud resources to be updated with actual OOOI times.

...

If AutoFill Aircraft is enabled and imports an aircraft tail number that has not been previously entered into APDL, it will be added to the default type set in Settings/Aircraft. This allows you to configure your aircraft types in the format that you prefer (B737 vs. Boeing 737 vs. 737-800 etc.) while still using AutoFill Aircraft. If you fly multiple types of aircraft, the default should be set to "Undefined Types" so it will not assign an incorrect type to your tail number and can be manually set later. To change the type from "Undefined Types" to the appropriate type, see the guidance on how to .Change the Aircraft Type Associated with a Tail Number v7.Next.

Note

AutoFill can only process flights within the past 7 days or upcoming 3 days.

Note

AutoFill requires an airline code to retrieve data from our cloud resources. As a result, deadhead flights will not be able to autofill unless they are on your own airline. If you are deadheading on a different airline, you can enter the airline code prefix to the flight number in order to enable autofill for off-line deadhead flights. For example, if deadheading on a Delta flight and you don't work for Delta, enter "DAL1234" as the flight number instead of just "1234".

You can archive Types, Tails, Crews, and Payroll Categories (if not set as default) which ONLY hides them from lists. It does not affect data set to prior entries for example. For example, you may want to hide certain payroll categories that you no longer use to declutter your list of payroll categories. On the bottom of each of the four views is an "Archive" switch which can be toggled on or off to archive that particular item. The "Show Archived Data" switch in the Misc section is used to show all archived data in one place should you have archived something you need to unarchive.

Gross pay is displayed on the menu on the Payroll row. If you would prefer to keep this information private to anyone looking over your shoulder, you can hide that value by turning off "Show Gross Pay in Menu".

Don't want anyone messing with your data in APDL? Have young kids at home that may get your phone when you're not looking? You can protect your data by securing APDL with TouchID or passcode to prevent unauthorized access.

Enable "Require Authentication" to turn on security. You can choose to require authentication on every app launch, or select from several time intervals to avoid nuisance prompts to authenticate. The time intervals will allow you to suspend and resume APDL multiple times during the specified time period. For example, if you choose 10 minutes, authenticate APDL once and you can suspend and resume APDL multiple times for 10 minutes without authenticating again
