Regular Request Managment
Another update on the new developments with the next release of CTX, which has now been given the imaginative title of CTX 1.5.
I have been working on the issue of significant changes to ‘Regular Requests’. CTX will now automatically generate a new regular request when you make a change that will affect previous occurrences of the request such as changing the destination. This will only happen if the request start date has been passed. The original request will end on a specified date and the new request will take effect from that date. This saves CTX users from having to ‘recycle the request’ as they currently should be doing, but often don’t as its easier not to !.
Regenerate Request
However, if you change the times, prices, seating or frequency of the regular a new request isn’t required as this information is stored separately for each occurrence of the request, unless of course you want to…then you can use the recycle button to generate a new request yourself.
Like the look of the new regular request box – one question from the ribbon toolbar shown – when going to make a regular request – can you add a new destination without having to come out of the request without saving and then make a new destination – then go back and make the request?
Hiya Trevor,
sorry for being slow at getting back to your comment but have been looking at the issue. You won’t be able to in version 1.5…the initial release…but we aim to add it in version 2…which will be released very shortly after.
