Welcome to the survey about invoicing in apron:pilot

The next version of apron:pilot will include an invoicing module to complete the entire process, from booking an aircraft to making a logbook entry and billing.

 

With the invoicing module, the administrator will be able to automatically create PDF invoices in apron:pilot via a payment run, which will be sent to customers overnight after approval. The reimbursement of fuel costs are taken into account in the calculation as well as individual costs / credit per invoice are possible. Billing is based on the flight data entered in the logbook.

 

With this short survey, we would like to clarify a few more details on the basis of previous experience and information in order to gain important findings in the last weeks of development and to be able to incorporate them.

 

The survey takes about 3-5 minutes.

 

Many thanks for the support,

David from apron:pilot

Necessary features for billing

A lot of features and ideas are currently on the roadmap, some have already been implemented.


We'd like to ask a few questions here that revolve around the features.

5

Which features should the invoicing module have, how important would the following features / functions be for your group / owner community / flight school / flying club?

6

How important / relevant would it be that apron:pilot also generates invoices that explicitly show the tax (“tax invoice”) or would a kind of account statement be sufficient?

7

With such a "tax bill", what would be important your group / owner community / flight school / flight club about that?

8

The reimbursement of fuel costs is a recurring case in the GA charter. What value does your group / owner community / flight school / flight club reimburse the pilot if he has refueled at a foreign airport?

9

Can pilots make a one-off payment to your group / owner community / flight school / flying club, for example in order to receive lower minute prices?

10

What other, perhaps not yet mentioned, requirements would your group / owner community / flight school / flight club have for the invoicing module?

Freeware vs Payware

The complexity, the variety, but also the planned scope of functions have reached a level that goes beyond a simple side project.


Therefore, there is the consideration that apron:pilot with the invoicing module will be offered as a subscription for a fee. Details are still being considered and will also depend on the feedback from users or potential users.

11

If the invoicing module had to be paid for, which payment frequency or basis would be most suitable for your group / owner community / flight school / flying club?

12

If the invoicing module had to be paid monthly (regardless of the number of bills, users), how much would you be willing to pay monthly for your group / owner community / flight school / flight club?
