What I was wondering though is if I hadn't been proactive I assume that I would have probably been stuck in the back. CPU runs at the windows to clear into R but if PN opens up before the windows do you have to manually watch it and your left on your own to process the upgrade? In theory what could have happened is I could have lost out to someone with higher status clearing at their window or whenever CPU runs?
YBM clearing into PN has been an issue for me; had to call every single time to get it done.
