   Recalculate: No laytime calculation can be made until the Recalculate button is clicked. Once clicked, the calculation is refreshed and recalculated. Recalculate can be clicked at any time during a calculation, and will calculate on that point the most updated figures. It is also possible to enter multiple data without running a calculation and wait until all required details are entered and then to click Recalculate to perform a single calculation (and no "part calculations"). However, the recalculate function will automatically be performed upon closing the Laytime Calculations module.
