Batch data entry feature request: Save button
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Can we add a general “save” button, so we can save as we go? Right now we can only save and continue later, which closes the batch. With large batches we don't want to lose any data if something happens during data entry.

@MDemosWMF I tried this out & from my testing it saves the batch whenever you alter cell date so the reason there is no 'save' button is it is always saving.

You can test this out by refreshing the page I think - but note that I did make one change that didn't seem to autosave & then later I couldn't seem to replicate it not saving-as-I-went - so there might be a bug that is an exception to the rule that you might find in testing?

@Eileenmcnaughton Good to know - I will loop in Bre so she can test this, thanks!

Adding @BJordan-WMF to this task - Bre can you test this and make sure the auto save is indeed working?
