The calculation will take approximately 1 hour for 100 sites, so around 5 hours for 500 sites.

Once the calculation is finished, you receive a notification via email.

> ***Important remark!***
> 
> *During the batch calculation, all other modules (data management, marketing efforts, location planning) will be blocked for all the users. Everyone will receive a notification saying that user X is running an Optimize, with a progress bar that shows how long the Optimize calculation will take.*

> *All the other calculations that are running (by other users) during the Optimize batch run, are put in a waiting queue and will be picked up again after the Optimize run is ready. Therefore it is important to do Optimize calculations at the end of a working day or after alignment with the other users.*
