desktop*StrePla Version 5.3 (5361)
  • Improvements on the OLC claiming task

As you would like to know, the OLC admits only flights over its " Direct Claim Winodow" received. We changed the reporting procedure in such a way now, without support by the OLC, at desktop*StrePla that for the user the maximally possible comfort is given.

Flights, with no SUA contact, are announced to the OLC as before. During flights, where the user must confirm that the SUA to use was allowed, desktop*StrePla automatically switches into the mode "Direct Claim Winodow" and fills out the input fields so far as possible.

Like always the update for customers who bought or updated with costs within the last year (since May 15th 2009) is free of charge. All other customers can update there license. You can read our one year's update warranty here.
