Work

[AL2]

Mr. IT Imaging Guy - will there be work on the weekend?

[Your_IT_Imaging_Guy]

Ohh yes, all weekend long (provided we can get these system issues worked out asap)

We still have over 6 million snippets available, and you've all been getting through around 1 million per day. So you should be steady as much as you want this weekend!

[AL2]

Great! Thank you!

Off topic, but wow, you get signed off quick if you go idle, and those alphanumeric test snippets, I haven't seen them for years!

I posted threads about both of these. Really frustrating. Hope it will improve soon.

Agreed- the sign off is super quick if you go idle for more than just a few minutes.
Also, I have seen nothing but some not very good dollar and numeric snippets. Where is the good stuff?

The queues will change based on the work available in the system and the priorities.

We take a form from the client, cut out all those snippets, and put them into the various queues: Alphanumeric, Dollars Only, etc. So for any given form, the work will be spread across multiple queues, and we need all of those queues to be processed for us to get a complete form returned to us. The system tries to balance this by prioritizing the oldest work first. However, we also don't want to have you switching queues all the time, as that would slow everyone down, so the system tries to accommodate that as well.

At the moment, we have a lot of snippets in Dollars Only, and we need that queue to be worked down further to get forms returned that are almost finished.

The current counts are:

3.7 Million - Dollars Only
970K - Alphanumeric
667K - Numeric
581K - Letters Only
88K - Dollars and Cents


You won't have to get through all 3.7 million Dollars Only to get the others queues to come to the front, but it'll at least need a sizable dent until the system opens up those other queues.

Thank you. This really breaks down how everything works. I was able to key without interruption last night. Looking forward to keying all weekend and hopefully Labor Day as well, if the work holds out.

Thanks for all you do.

Just a quick update on the queue counts below:

2.8 Million - Dollars Only
953K - Alphanumeric
648K - Numeric
578K - Letters Only
86K - Dollars and Cents

Thanks!
