Complete a Segmentable Activity

You can complete a started segment of a segmentable activity by clicking End and entering the required information.

In addition to the single-day activity fields, a segmentable activity is finished check box displays on the on the End activity page. When checked, you confirm that you are completing the entire activity together with the segment. When the current segment is the last segment of a segmentable activity, the check box is enabled by default, otherwise it is disabled.

If the last segment is completed simultaneously with the expiration of Time to complete, the segmentable activity is completed. However, if Time to complete is longer than the duration of the last segment, the remaining duration is moved to the non-scheduled pool after the completion of the last segment, and the segmentable activity remains started.

If you choose to complete only the current segment (by leaving the check box unchecked), the Time to complete field on the End activity page shows the remaining duration of the segmentable activity. Initially, the Time to complete value is calculated according to the following formula:

segmentable activity duration – Duration of finished segments – (current time – start time)

The Time to complete value can be adjusted simultaneously with completing a segment.

Note: Changing the Time to complete value results in recalculation of the remaining pending segments of the segmentable activity and may cause changes to their number and/or duration.

If you choose to complete the entire segmentable activity and enable segmentable activity is finished, the Time to complete field is replaced with the segmentable activity status field, allowing you to select either completed or not done from the drop-down list as the final status of the segmentable activity.

The final status of a segment may be different from the final status of the entire segmentable activity. For example, a segment can be closed as not done while the activity will have the completed status, and vice versa.

If you choose to complete the entire activity together with completing a segment that is not the last in the segmentable sequence, all subsequent segments are deleted from the route(s).

You can set a segmentable activity as not completed in a similar manner, except the final status of the activity will be not done.

The not done button of a started segment behaves in the similar manner, also offering an option of completing the entire segmentable activity or setting it as not done.
