Specify manual production cues independently of the planned clock

Track standby, ready and executed cues with their actual dependencies.

Give each cue a trigger and an execution record

Synthetic stage plan lists cue Q2 at 15:00, but its operational trigger requires Q1 executed and the stage manager’s ready mark. At 15:00 Q1 has executed, while ready is absent. Q2 stays standby. A clock reaching the planned time does not execute a manual cue. This fixture concerns administrative cue tracking, not equipment control.

  1. Read cue prerequisites
  2. Read actual Q1 and ready records
  3. Permit manual cue action
  4. Record actual execution afterward

A cancelled prerequisite needs a specific revised cue decision; it cannot be relabelled executed.

Both trigger conditions are present but no Q2 action is recorded. Is Q2 executed?

Show the worked answer

No. Q2 is ready only. Its manual execution still needs an actual action record.

Ask the demo to show a ready-but-unexecuted cue, preventing a planned timestamp from becoming a fabricated action.
