Void Flight Log

Purpose: The purpose of this exercise is to learn how to void a flight log. In some situations, there can be a need for removing a flight log that has been entered by error. Since it is a requirement that removing a flight log has to be documented, it is not possible to delete the flight log and the flight log should be voided instead. When a flight log is voided, it is no longer considered to be a valid log for the vehicle.

Prerequisites: Before starting on this exercise, you must have completed the Report Flight Information on a Flight Log - Using Predefined Operational Plans exercise.

  2. Right-click, point to Status, and then click Void. The Void Flight Log dialog box opens.
  3. In the Voiding Information field, enter the reason for voiding the flight log.
  4. Click OK. Verify that the status of the flight log has been set to Voided.
  5. Click the General tab. Is the reason entered in the Void Flight Log dialog box shown in the Voiding Information field?

Move Voided Flights

Purpose: The purpose of this exercise is to learn how to move voided flights from a voided flight log to another open flight log. This is useful if a flight log has been voided and a new flight log is entered to replace the voided log and some of the already entered data can be reused.
