There is an existing option to deviate rules on a corridor. This is inconvenient and difficult to use because of the workflow associated this it: select A corridor -> deactivate rules, then select A corridor -> enable rules -> process (this has to be done for each and every corridor separately. There needs to be a global Automatic/Manual option for this. Automatic -> processes the corridor(s) like ORD normally does. Manual - processes the corridor(s) only after a Process button is pressed. In the manual case there is no back and forth with the deactivate rule/enable rules on the corridor. For example: I know that ORD is not Excel, but Excel has an Automatic/Manual calculation option and I would envision a similar function in ORD for corridors, liner templates, etc. Note that Excel has several option for this Automatic/Manual calculation
