Reverse Switch Lottery Assignments

Reversing a switch lottery assignment changes an assignment’s status from Applied to Proposed. If a candidate failed the assignment run, the candidate’s Failed status is not reversed when the Reverse Assignments option is applied.

Reversing an assignment also deletes associated contract items but only if they meet the following rules:

     The contract item’s Expected Start and Expected End dates must match the Automatic Assignment batch’s Occupancy Start and Occupancy End dates.

     The assignment must be in either a Preliminary or Active state.

     No charges can exist for the contract item.

     The patron can’t have Suspend All Processing enabled.

Use the following procedure to reverse switch lottery results from the Results tab of the Switch Lottery page:

1.  Select Switch Lottery from the Assignment section of the Patron menu. The List of Switch Lottery Batches grid is displayed in the Search tab of the Switch Lottery page.

2.  If necessary, search for an assignment batch.

3.  Click Select on the desired switch lottery batch, and then select the Switch Lottery tab.

4.  After a switch lottery batch has been applied by clicking the Apply Assignments link, the assignments can be reversed, if necessary. Reversing assignments returns the assignments to a Proposed state.

5.  To reverse the batch’s assignments, click Reverse Assignments.
