===Scheduled Update (long running)===
When running long calculations, for example a large project area with a grid overlay with a very small grid size, the calculation time allowed during office hours is capped at a maximum amount - one hour as of the time of writing. By selecting the option "Scheduled Update (long running)", your project is set to 'Keep Alive' and your calculation will take place after office hours, when there is no limitation on calculation time used on the server. This ensures that more comples calculations can take place in the background over night, while these long calculations do not block other users for long times during office hours. There is also an option to be notified by text message (SMS) or email, that will be sent to you when the calculation is completed.

Introducing the Calculation Panel

The Calculation Panel helps you to manage the calculation time of your project. The Calculation Panel can be found by hovering with your mouse over the Refresh button, under the File menu tab in the top left corner.

The options in this panel will allow you to set up how indicators, panels and Overlays are being (re)calculated and provide an overview of the calculation time of some of the components in your project. For more guidelines on calculation performance see Troubleshooting calculation performance.

Auto-update indicators

This option is by default turned on and ensures that whenever you make a change in the Editor, the indicators, panels and Overlays will be recalculated immediately. When the auto-update is not checked, you will have to manually refresh the project after making an adjustment. You can refresh the project manually by choosing one of the available Reset options (see below) or by clicking on the Refresh button. Compare the three different states below.

Scheduled Update (long running)

When running long calculations, e.g. in a large project area with a grid overlay with a very small grid size, the calculation time allowed during office hours is capped at a maximum amount - one hour as of the time of writing. By selecting the option "Scheduled Update (long running)", your project is set to 'Keep Alive'. You can now exit the client and your calculation will take place after office hours, when there is no limitation on calculation time used on the server. This ensures that more complex calculations can take place in the background over night, whithout these long calculations hindering other users on the server during office hours. There is also an option upon completion of the calculation to be notified by text message (SMS) or email.
