Issue/Introduction

In Scenario mode, when using filled Roles and unfilled Roles on a Project, and update allocation in the top panel, the bottom panel does not get updated for unfilled Roles or Group / summary row on group by Role

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1. Connect to Clarity and set up a project with a role assigned to its duration
2. Replace the role partially with a named resource
3. Now go to Staffing – Allocations by Investment
4. Create a view to filter just on this investment and just the Current Period and this role and resource (see screenshot)
5. Bottom panel – stay in Resource Availability mode for now
6. Create a new Scenario and go to Scenario mode to Compare to Current Data
7. Now in top panel edit the allocation for the labor Resource, enter
8. Note the number immediately updates in the bottom panel for the labor Resource in the per period metrics
9. Edit the allocation for the Role
10. Note nothing is happening. Do a browser refresh
11. The numbers change after browser refresh for the role
12. Switch the bottom panel to Resources by Role and expand the groups
13. Note the numbers there
14. Now edit the allocation in the top panel for both Resource and Roles and observe the numbers in the bottom panel

 

Expected Results: The bottom panel numbers to change accordingly for Resource, unfilled Role and the Group / Summary role row

Actual Results: The bottom panel numbers only update for the Resource
