Improvements have been made to the Recurring schedule record screen and include the following:
New header
A new header has been implemented and shows the following information about the recurring schedule:
- Name
- Description
- Date of the first job in the schedule
- Date of the last job in the schedule
- Counts of all jobs in the schedule including total, scheduled, completed, and canceled jobs
Ability to extend schedule
A new action button labeled "Extend" has been added to the header of the Recurring schedule screen. Clicking on this button opens a modal that lets the user easily extend the current schedule by either selecting:
- The number of additional occurrences to extend the schedule by; or
- The date to which the schedule must be extended.
This action adds new jobs to the schedule based on the last scheduled job in the schedule.
Note: You can have a maximum of only 365 recurring jobs at any given time within a schedule.
Work tab
The Work tab lists all the jobs that are part of the current recurring schedule. This work list has been improved to, by default, only show scheduled jobs within the schedule that are not yet completed or canceled.
In addition, a new filter is now available on the work list, which lets you easily filter the list to show either all, scheduled, completed, or canceled work.
You can now also edit the overall recurrence of the schedule more easily by clicking on the three-dot menu on any job and selecting "Edit Recurrence". This opens the "Edit Recurring Pattern" modal, which lets you edit the pattern of the schedule and bases the new schedule off the job you selected.
Details tab
The Details tab now shows all of the information of the schedule and the specific job it is based on in a more intuitive and user-friendly layout.
Additionally, the Description field for the recurring schedule can now be edited from the Details tab by simply clicking on the field, changing the value, and then clicking the Save button.
Calendar tab
The Calendar shows the same information as before. The only addition here is that you can now click on any job listed on the calendar to easily navigate to the Details screen of that job.
