Assignment proposal: the calculation carries on while you work
After “Generate”, you can go to other screens: the proposal calculation carries on. A marker in the menu shows that it is running, and the message “Proposal for … ready” lets you know, with “View”.
Calculating the proposal for a busy day can take a while. You no longer have to wait in front of the screen: “Generate” or “Regenerate” starts the calculation, and you carry on working elsewhere in the software.
What changes for you
- During the calculation, a marker spins on the “Assignment proposal” entry in the menu, whether the menu is expanded or collapsed.
- When it finishes, the message “Proposal for … ready” appears, with “View” to open it. If the calculation fails, the message stays on screen, with “View”.
- Back on the screen, you find the day you were looking at, and “Calculating…” until the calculation has finished. A calculation running for another day is shown as a reminder, with “View”.
- Only one calculation runs at a time for the same day. If you ask for another one in the meantime, for example after changing the team for the day, the software offers “Run again when finished”.
- Do not reload the page or close the tab during the calculation: the browser reminds you. If it happens, the calculation is marked as interrupted, with “Run again”.
- As before, nothing is written to the schedule before “Approve proposal”.
