The Case Manager, AllCases, is being revamped to work more consistently by keeping track of runs submitted according to the model folder, which is great!
An additional feature that would be very useful is to allow for a set of selected Cases to be assigned a name via BatchSave so that the group can be BatchRecall to ready the group for resubmitting a Batch Run. To adjust a saved BatchName list the user would just change the multi-select list and resave. The active BatchName should be displayed someplace on the AllCases form, and a BatchDelete button added to get rid of existing BatchSave.
Also, before requesting a BatchRun it may be necessary to adjust the Case definition (e.g., because a scenario name/version has changed, to activate Discrete Investment) for some cases. While this can be done by going to AllCases and loading the previous run, maknig the change, hitting save, going back to AllCases and repeating for each Case, if this could be done from the AllCases form with a multi-select with would present the Solve form for each selected Case with a Save/Cancel option that would be more streamlined. [However, as there is a workaround, as just noted, lower priority.]
