    This has also happened to me in the past and I have had to leave the variation for a long period to be able to get back into the variation. It would be good if this could be unlocked earlier.

    Hi Chloe,
    Interesting. I wouldn't think timeouts would cause a problem because the
    Job would be ended and records released in the background after the 30 mins
    of inactivity.
    However the internet drop outs could very well cause issues, as
    your connection to the server is lost but the Job continues to run on the
    cloud until it reaches the inactivity timeout and releases records.. Can
    you identify a particular screen where it is always an issue? If so let me
    know the exact screen (by screenshot to my direct email Andrew_tucker@, if
    possible) and I can chat with the dev team to see if anything can be done
    about that.
    cheers
    Andrew

    Hi Andrew

    When the WUI timesout or the internet crashes, both are very frequent occurances.

    Hi Chloe,
    Under what circumstances do your variations get locked?
    Cheers
