Fix Recurring Assignment Detail Gaps

Concepts

Recurring assignments are comprised of the recurring assignment definition, which sets out the rules for the recurring assignment, plus the detail assignments which are based on those rules. The detail assignments are created automatically but can be individually edited or removed. To deal with anomalies where detail assignments have gone missing, the Fix recurring assignment detail gaps tool was created. Use it to find recurring assignments which are missing one or more of the detail assignments which would normally be created as part of that recurring assignment and optionally re-create those missing detail assignments.
