Delivered Actions for Post Plans and Posts

During the planning and administration phases, planners and administrators can select actions, also known as edit functions in the system, to run on post plans.

When a planner selects an edit function (except KU or KW definition), a piece of information is stored in the database as to what action needs to be performed later in the clean-up phase. This information is visible in the Clean-Up Messages section on the Post Management - Cleanup page, and the administrator must manually process every edit function planned.

When an administrator selects an edit function in the administration phase, the administrator manually processes the action in the same phase.

This table lists edit functions that are delivered for use in post management:

Relocation	Subtract	Add
Reserve	No change		Not available during planning
Reset	Depending on the previous edit function that was reset, the reset function can impact the V-Soll and other calculated fields.		Not available during planning

When a planner selects an edit function to perform on a post, the system does not take into consideration the fractions of posts that exist in the post plan. The planner needs to make sure that he or she knows the fraction of the post on which the edit function processes, for example, the fraction of the post to be decremented. The system shows the fraction to decrement from a plan and will only allow posts with the correct fraction to be selected for the decrement edit function.
