In an effort to help our clients and improve security, Flylogs has enhanced the company staff groups, adding new groups and editing the existing ones to be more limited and allow the company managers a better management of their company access permissions.
Flylogs allows you to create the following company management groups:
- CA Company Administrator
- OM Operations Manager
- SM Safety Manager
- HR Human Resources Manager
- FM Financial Manager
- RM Roster Manager
- FD Flight Dispatcher
Operationally, we have the following groups:
- MC Mechanic
- CP Chief Pilot
- FI Flight Instructor
- PI Pilot
- SP Student pilot
In general terms, all profiles have access to the Company Document Vault, as well as the Safety Management System (SMS) to see their own reports.
Company administrators, operations, safety, and human resource managers have privileged access to the Company Document Vault and access to the Newsletters tool, which allows to send company wide emails.
