Judy Stern commented on MH-8947:
--------------------------------

This may actually be a different bug than MH-8892. If I understand Jonathan 
correctly, *this* bug is about scheduling a group of recordings that are *all* 
actually in the future. (Jonathan did not select Friday as one of the days of 
the week, so no invalid dates would be generated by his selections.) The proper 
behavior is to simply schedule what is requested.
On the other hand, if the user's selections would result in recordings 
scheduled in the past, an error message is appropriate:
The behavior that is consistent with the way the UI is working currently (as 
Ruben pointed out) is to show an error message (at the top of the screen when 
submit button is clicked) telling them what data was invalid; invalid fields 
should be highlighted in red. (This case is complex in that it's actually the 
combo of start date, days of the week, and start time that result in invalid 
recordings scheduled, but I think it's acceptable to just highlight the start 
date.)
The alternative behavior, to go ahead and schedule only the ones in the future 
and simply report on the confirmation screen what dates were not scheduled 
because they were in the past, would probably preferred by users (in most 
cases), but it doesn't have a precedent in the UI, so I think we ought NOT do 
it this way (even though it's what I said we should do in the meeting this 
morning).
