How to add a hold to a student

On the Student Planning page:

1. Click anywhere on the student line to open the individual student modal
2. Click on the 'Holds' tab
3. Click 'Add a non-syllabus hold'
4. Enter the start and end dates of the hold
5. Enter the reason for the hold (optional)
6. If you don't want to record this hold as a delay, check the box 'Exclude from delays'
7. Click 'Save'

Once you have saved the hold the following actions automatically occur:

• You will see a hold block appear on the students timeline
• The hours, instructor and aircraft resources required and monthly student numbers have automatically been pushed out around this hold
• The end date for the student has pushed out or if the end date is fixed the number of events required to be flown before the end date will have increased
• The Expected delays by completion will update, if not excluded

By entering a hold you are telling Aeroplanned that this student is not flying. Therefore you can't also log a progress update during a hold. If you try to do this, depending on the situation you will either be given an error or Aeroplanned will make the date of the progress update the day before the hold started.

If you change your mind you can simply click the red rubbish bin and delete the hold. Everything will revert back to normal.
