/* RequestGroup */
===RequestGroup===
The first section of the observation request form should look like the image below. Note that you can toggle between the form, the API view and a list of Drafts using the buttons in the panel along the top. You can save a draft any time using the blue button to the right, then load it from the Drafts tab at the top. In this way you can abandon a partially completed submission. It is also particularly useful to save a completed form as a draft once you're happy with it, so that you can load it later to use as a template for future observation requests.

The options for a RequestGroup are as follows:
*'''Name''': Give your request an identifier that is appropriate for your target/proposal/observation type. This is only for your purposes and need not take a specific format, but you should be able to recognise it in a list of all users’ request groups.
*'''Proposal''': Your proposals that have time allocated to them will be available in the dropdown list. Select the appropriate proposal for your observation. If there is nothing in the list and you have accepted your proposal and registered as instructed above, contact Ramotholo Sefako.
*'''Type''': The options are:
#''Queue scheduled'': this is a “normal” observation that can be made by the queue when it is feasible to do so, when the other parameters of your request are met.
#''Time critical'': if your observation is time sensitive (e.g. a transit, eclipse, etc.), you can specify a window within which it must be executed. Note that your proposal will need to have been approved as time critical, and have time critical hours allocated to it in order for this to work.
#''Rapid response'': this is for observations that need to be triggered as soon as possible, and will interrupt the scheduled queue (but not an observation in progress). Again, you will need rapid response hours allocated to your proposal to successfully use this option.
*'''IPP Factor''': Intra/Inter Proposal Priority factor. This will largely be of interest if you would like to prioritise different observations within your proposal; you would give a larger number to a higher priority observation. Values must be between 0.5 and 2. If you’re happy for all your observations to have equal priority, stick with the default value of 1.05. This is a very basic summary, the full explanation of IPP can be found [https://lco.global/documents/20/the_new_priority_factor.pdf here].
