Events and Diversions

Key Differences from EToN

Street Manager has a general facility to show "Activities on the map" (referred to as Activities going forward). A Street Manager Activity can only be linked to one USRN whereas Confirm Events and Diversions can be linked to multiple USRNs.

Street Manager automatically assigns an activity reference to the works.

Street Manager supports a number of Activity Types plus "other". For Activity Type "other" an additional activity type details must be supplied but this is not currently displayed anywhere in Street Manager. Diversions are exported as "other" activity type so Work Type is assigned to the activity type details when exported to Street Manager.

Confirm does not allow the user to flag an Event to be Sent. We are therefore proposing to send all Events and Diversion routes to Street Manager unconditionally.

Street Manager does not allow the geometry of an existing Activity to be changed. In this scenario Confirm will close the current activity (cancel it) and create a new one to cater for these changes.

There are no plans to import Events / Diversions from Street Manager.
