Accumulated Facts
Named totals over a member's flight history — hours or starts, in a role, over a period — that pricing and qualification rules use in their conditions.
This page is for club administrators. As a pilot you don't need it — go to the Pilot guide.
What it is
An accumulated fact is a named total over a member’s flight history — for example “hours flown this year” or “starts in the last 90 days”. Rules read it in their conditions: a pricing rule gives a discount after 100 hours, a qualification rule requires 3 starts in 90 days.
Each definition sets:
- What to count — Flight hours or Number of starts.
- Pilot role — All (PIC + with instructor), PIC (pilot or second pilot, not instructor) or Instructor.
- Time period — This calendar year (Jan 1 to today), a Rolling window (last N days), or All time (no date limit).
- Flight filters (optional) — only flights of an Aircraft category, Aircraft type or Flight task count.
The value is always computed from approved flights at the moment a rule is checked. It is never stored as a balance. When a flight is billed, it counts toward its own totals.
How to use it
- Create a definition — the + button opens Add Fact Definition. The preview shows the definition as a sentence.
- Edit a definition — Edit from its card.
- Use it in a rule — the definition appears as a condition property, by name, in Pricing Rules and Qualification Rules. Compare it with is more than, is less than, is at least or is at most.
- See where it’s used — each card shows Used by {count} rules or Not used yet. A definition that active rules still use can’t be deleted; remove it from those rules first.
- Search — filter the list by name.
