Availability Requirements

The Availability Requirements frame is used to designate the number of units required (by class) for a particular entity at a specific time.

 

To set up Availability Requirements, enter an Operational Entity or double click in the field to select one from the list of values (LOV). Only Departments that have units with an Operational Class Code will display in this LOV.

 

The Operational Class will represent the type of unit required. Enter an Operational Class or select one from the LOV.

 

In the Operational Line field, enter or select an Availability Line Code. The Line Time will automatically populate with the information from the Line Code.

 

Enter an Effective Date for the requirements and a Quantity Required for the type of vehicle. If you want someone to be notified when requirements change, enter a valid e-mail address in the E-mail Address field.

 

Click the Save button once the entry is complete. To change the requirements, you can enter a new effective date and/or quantity required.
