New release of Allocate

This release delivers two major enhancements: an expanded reservation conflict detection system and a completely redesigned allocate overview table.

Improved handling of reservations and conflict control

The new conflict control system now considers a wider range of student reservations. In addition to the reservations managed in Allocate for groups that students are currently in or will be allocated to in the current period will now also include:

  • Reservations that a student object is on directlyExample: Student is directly on reservations for a module where the student is a teaching assistant.
  • Reservations for objects where the student is a member of, but are not part of the current periodExample: A full year module that the student was registered to in a previous period or student is a teaching assistant, and this is implemented via the student object being a member to a teaching assistant object.

These changes also introduce the possibility to more granularly define what type of reservations to be included. This is achieved by defining a reservation mode to filter on. If you already use this for setting up student pages in Viewer, it is probably also applicable for Allocate and Registration. Contact support to get further help setting this up.

Table in allocate overview is replaced

Allocate overview table has been replaced, all the functionality is there with small changes in the design, the notable improvements are:

  • Improved responsiveness, made possible by pagination.
  • Limitations working with more than 1000 modules has been removed.
  • Improved table stability - prevents data shifting and layout changes while scrolling
  • Design aligned with other parts of the product.

This change will be made available to test organisations June 19th, and enable for all instances June 30th.
