This documentation provides an extensive overview of Maintenance Reminders, including how to create, configure, resolve, and track them within the AerScheduler platform.
Key Features of Maintenance Reminders
AerScheduler's Maintenance Reminders feature offers a range of key functionalities:

-
Reminder Categories: Maintenance Reminders can be categorized into three types: hour-based, day-based, and date-based, depending on the maintenance interval criteria.

Aircraft Attachment and Resolution
After creating a Reminder Type, you can attach specific aircraft to these reminders, ensuring that each aircraft's maintenance schedule is tracked accurately. You can also update the aircraft attached to reminders at any time by visiting the Reminder Type's page and editing it.
When reminders are resolved, they are archived, allowing organizations to maintain a historical record of completed maintenance tasks. Resolving a reminder prompts the creation of a new reminder to refresh the maintenance schedule. When resolved, additional information, such as a completed date and completed hours, can be added to the reminder, helping track maintenance progress accurately.
