Constants

To get to the Constants already defined at your platform, go from General Configuration to Constants:

Add constant

From the Constants view, click on the Add Constant button situated at the top right corner:

The editor for the new constants will show up. Fill in the required information:

• name - (required) the name of the constant should be one string. Good practice is to connect words by using the underscore ''. (ex: ATA36_LOW_BLEED_TEMP)

• description - optional, but very useful to describe the constants existence. The limit is 1000 characters.

• value - (required) the value of the constant. It could be either numeric value, string of characters or the distribution list (ex. 140)

• airline - (optional/required - depending on the constant). If no airline is chosen, the default value applies to all the airlines using the platform.

• plugin - disregard/leave empty. This is to be filled in by ADMIN.

• componentXid - disregard/leave empty. This is to be filled in by ADMIN.

The constant could be now saved by clicking on Save button.

Let's edit the value of the constant, and remove 1 email address from the distribution list. The new values would be:

Do not forget to Save your changes.

There is no double confirmation on that action. Once you clicked on the Delete Constant button, the constant is gone.
