Configurable User Experience for Self-study/Course Self-study Reservation Connections

User experience can be improved for end-users when their self-study and course self-study reservations are in not ready state.

The feature will be controlled from HyWorks Management Console - Settings > General > Advanced Config > Fix Reservation Option

  • Set as 1: Fix button is shown on header and showing status in red color (Old behaviour)

  • Set as 2: Connect button is in red color and its status also (New customized behaviour)

Important

  • The user must have permissions to fix its self-study and course self-study reservations. The details are provided in this section.

Workflow

When user will create a self-study or course self-study reservation Connect button will be changed as per status of reservation, e.g.,

  • Reservation not running > White Connect button with click not possible.

  • Reservation Running but customization still in progress > White Connect button with status as preparing in yellow color.

  • Reservation Running but error fixing initiated > Yellow Connect button.

  • Reservation running with error (agent not responding or powered off) > Red Connect button.

Even when user will try to connect to reservations with these conditions a dialog will be displayed, which will recommend the action to be taken but also showing user to continue connecting to reservation and ignoring the error.
