Recurrence pattern for broadcasts

It is now possible to extend the broadcast to include recurrence details following a pattern like daily, monthly etc. with start and end date or following a specific pattern like every first Sunday of the month.

Refresh button

A refresh button has now been added so that the data shown on the Broadcast overview and Broadcast details page for lightning and operating hours now easily can be updated without having to reload the entire page:

Updates to Maintenance features

Filtering on the Event Log

On the event log of the maintenance features (Software update, DB backup and DB restore) it is now possible to filter on the specific events:

- Software update

- DB backup

- DB restore

This is especially useful for organizations with many schedules.
