Configuration of Positions

Overview: Helipass is making improvements to the functionality presented on the Work Site page (formally called the POB page). With these improvements, users will be able to configure many aspects of their location such as Living Quarters, Lifeboats, Muster Points, ICS Roles, Positions, and Projects.

The key benefit to having the location configured for these assignment options is the ability to automate the assignments passengers receive when they arrive on the location. With the new Asset Configuration piece in place, you will be able to associate specific lifeboats to their muster points and vice versa. This will allow you to have a filtered list when giving passengers these assignments so only relevant options are available.

Check out the other Screen Step user guide, Configuration of Incident Command Structure, to see how ICS Roles can push the automation of passenger assignments even further!

The Position configuration tool will allow you to set limits on the number of assigned workers of each position type can be on the platform at all times. This prevents the location from having to few employees that have important roles as well as keeping track of how many of each position you have assigned on the location.

Configuring Positions

With the right permissions set on your profile, you will see the new Manage Asset configuration button on the top right of the Work Site area for a location. This icon is shaped like a gear and, when selected, will open up the Asset Configuration popup window.

To begin configuring the positions for a location, select the Positions tab. Once on the Positions tab, select the "+Add" button on the top right to create a new position.

When creating a new position, you will be able to select:

  • a unique name
  • *if it is a protected position
  • minimum personnel that must be assigned the role at all times

After all of the position information is entered, hit the save button. Do this same process for all of the positions you wish to assign on your location.

*Protected positions will be tied to specific permissions that allow only a subset of users to make edits to it. This protected position will allow admin to configure these positions for all locations and manage the count required of each for those specific assets. This will eventually tie into specific compliance checks for those protected positions that are configured by the admin.

Hitting save or close will take you back to the Positions overview tab in the Asset Configuration modal. Here you can review all positions that have been created as they will appear in alphabetical order.

To edit a position that already exist in the list, simply hit the pencil icon on the top right corner. It will redirect the popup to the edit position view for the changes to be made before hitting the "Save" button. To delete the position, follow the same steps but hit delete instead.
