Jobs and Ranks Management

The Job Management module allows the definition of ranks to be used on board your ships. These definitions will be used in the Crewing module but also in other modules with relations to the ship's crew (e.g. responsible person for a maintenance job).

 

The Job Management module manages the jobs for all ships in a global view. The ranks and number of positions on each ship will be defined separately in the Rank List.
