Labs counted as class sections instead of labs

[petermuller]

In lab classes, there is the main lecture section, and then a lab in addition to that. When generating different schedules with the lab selected under the classes, the lab is counted as the entire class and will be put on the schedule instead of the class, instead of being there in addition to the class.
Example:
CMPE-480-01
CMPE-460-01
CMPE-460-01L1
CMPE-550-01
CMPE-530-01
CMPE-530-01L2

The generated schedules will show:
(Lecture section) XOR (Lab section)
instead of the expected:
(Lecture section) AND (Lab section)

We've known about this issue for awhile (issue #30) and even before that, but right now RIT does not provide us with any sort of link between the two sections. There are both represented exactly the same in our database, so we have some ideas in the pipeline that will make it in to future versions, it's just rather complicated to pull off right before registration. We are literally trying to release this version tonight. Given that schedulemaker has always had this problem, I'm going to ignore it for now.

A workaround you can do in the mean time is:

1. Enter in any course with a lab twice, so that there are two text boxes with the same course
2. Expand the results for the first one, deselect all the labs
3. Expand the results for the second one, deselect all the lectures
4. This should give you what you wanted.

With your example, your screen should look like this:

I'll add this to the help section later on tonight, as a lot of people requested it.

Whoops, this was closed accidentally because we switched issue-tracker numbers, this has not been completed yet.
