+## 🚀 Quick Start (3 Steps)
+
+### **Step 1: Setup Upstash Redis** (2 minutes)
+
+1. Go to: https://console.upstash.com/
+2. Create free account
+3. Create database: `redis-tat-dev`
+4. Copy URL: `rediss://default:PASSWORD@host.upstash.io:6379`
+
+### **Step 2: Configure Backend**
+
+Edit `Re_Backend/.env`:
+```bash
+# Add these lines:
+REDIS_URL=rediss://default:YOUR_PASSWORD@YOUR_HOST.upstash.io:6379
+TAT_TEST_MODE=true
+```
+
+### **Step 3: Restart & Test**
+
+```bash
+cd Re_Backend
+npm run dev
+```
+
+**You should see:**
+```
+✅ [TAT Queue] Connected to Redis
+✅ [TAT Worker] Worker is ready and listening
+⏰ TAT Configuration:
+   - Test Mode: ENABLED (1 hour = 1 minute)
+   - Working Hours: 9:00 - 18:00
+   - Redis: rediss://***@upstash.io:6379
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🧪 Test It (6 Minutes)
+
+1. **Create Request** with 6-hour TAT
+2. **Submit Request**
+3. **Open Request Detail** → Workflow tab
+4. **Watch Alerts Appear**:
+   - 3 min: ⏳ 50% alert with full details
+   - 4.5 min: ⚠️ 75% alert with full details
+   - 6 min: ⏰ 100% breach with full details

+
+## 🔍 Troubleshooting
+
+### **No Alerts Showing in UI?**
+
+**Check:**
+1. Redis connected? Look for "Connected to Redis" in logs
+2. Request submitted? (Not just created)
+3. Waited long enough? (3 min in test mode, 12h in production for 24h TAT)
+4. Check browser console for errors
+5. Verify `tatAlerts` in API response
+
+**Debug:**
+```sql
+-- Check if alerts exist in database
+SELECT * FROM tat_alerts 
+WHERE request_id = 'YOUR_REQUEST_ID'
+ORDER BY alert_sent_at;
+```
+
+### **Alerts Not Triggering?**
+
+**Check:**
+1. TAT worker running? Look for "TAT Worker: Initialized" in logs
+2. Jobs scheduled? Look for "TAT jobs scheduled" in logs
+3. Redis queue status:
+   ```bash
+   # In Upstash Console → CLI:
+   KEYS bull:tatQueue:*
+   ```
+
+### **Confusing Times in Test Mode?**
+
+**Solution:**
+- Look for purple "TEST MODE" badge
+- Read note: "Test mode active (1 hour = 1 minute)"
+- For production feel, set `TAT_TEST_MODE=false`
+
+---
+
+## 📈 Sample KPI Queries
+
+### **TAT Compliance This Month:**
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  ROUND(
+    COUNT(CASE WHEN was_completed_on_time = true THEN 1 END) * 100.0 / 
+    NULLIF(COUNT(*), 0),
+    2
+  ) as compliance_rate
+FROM tat_alerts
+WHERE DATE(alert_sent_at) >= DATE_TRUNC('month', CURRENT_DATE)
+  AND was_completed_on_time IS NOT NULL;
+```
+
+### **Top Performers (On-Time Completion):**
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  u.display_name,
+  u.department,
+  COUNT(DISTINCT ta.level_id) as total_approvals,
+  COUNT(CASE WHEN ta.was_completed_on_time = true THEN 1 END) as on_time,
+  ROUND(
+    COUNT(CASE WHEN ta.was_completed_on_time = true THEN 1 END) * 100.0 / 
+    NULLIF(COUNT(DISTINCT ta.level_id), 0),
+    2
+  ) as compliance_rate
+FROM tat_alerts ta
+JOIN users u ON ta.approver_id = u.user_id
+WHERE ta.was_completed_on_time IS NOT NULL
+GROUP BY u.user_id, u.display_name, u.department
+ORDER BY compliance_rate DESC
+LIMIT 10;
+```
+
+### **Breach Trend (Last 30 Days):**
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  DATE(alert_sent_at) as date,
+  COUNT(CASE WHEN alert_type = 'TAT_50' THEN 1 END) as warnings_50,
+  COUNT(CASE WHEN alert_type = 'TAT_75' THEN 1 END) as warnings_75,
+  COUNT(CASE WHEN is_breached = true THEN 1 END) as breaches
+FROM tat_alerts
+WHERE alert_sent_at >= CURRENT_DATE - INTERVAL '30 days'
+GROUP BY DATE(alert_sent_at)
+ORDER BY date DESC;
+```

+   - Archive old TAT alerts (> 1 year)
+   - Refresh materialized views if using
+   - Monitor query performance
+
+3. **Test Mode Management**
+   - NEVER use test mode in production
+   - Document when test mode is on
+   - Clear test data regularly
+
+4. **Alert Thresholds**
+   - Adjust if needed (currently 50%, 75%, 100%)
+   - Can be configured in `tat.config.ts`
+   - Consider business requirements
+
+5. **Working Hours**
+   - Verify for your organization
+   - Update holidays if needed

+# 📊 Design Document vs Actual Implementation
+
+## Overview
+
+The `backend_structure.txt` is a **DESIGN DOCUMENT** that shows the intended/planned database structure. However, not all tables have been implemented yet.
+
+---
+
+## ✅ **Currently Implemented Tables**
+
+| Table | Status | Migration File | Notes |
+|-------|--------|---------------|-------|
+| `users` | ✅ Implemented | (Okta-based, external) | User management |
+| `workflow_requests` | ✅ Implemented | 2025103001-create-workflow-requests.ts | Core workflow |
+| `approval_levels` | ✅ Implemented | 2025103002-create-approval-levels.ts | Approval hierarchy |
+| `participants` | ✅ Implemented | 2025103003-create-participants.ts | Spectators, etc. |

+| **`admin_configurations`** | ✅ Implemented | 20251104-create-admin-config.ts | **Similar to planned `system_settings`** |
+
+---
+
+## ❌ **Planned But Not Yet Implemented**
+
+| Table | Status | Design Location | Purpose |
+|-------|--------|----------------|---------|
+| `notifications` | ❌ Not Implemented | Lines 186-205 | Notification management |
+| **`tat_tracking`** | ❌ Not Implemented | Lines 207-225 | **Real-time TAT tracking** |
+| `conclusion_remarks` | ❌ Not Implemented | Lines 227-242 | AI-generated conclusions |

+
+---
+
+## ⚠️ **Key Discrepancies**
+
+### **1. `admin_configurations` vs `system_settings`**
+
+**Problem:** I created `admin_configurations` which overlaps with the planned `system_settings`.
+
+**Design (`system_settings`):**
+```sql
+system_settings {
+    setting_id PK
+    setting_key UK
+    setting_value
+    setting_type
+    setting_category
+    is_editable
+    is_sensitive
+    validation_rules
+    ...
+}
+```
+
+**What I Created (`admin_configurations`):**
+```sql
+admin_configurations {
+    config_id PK
+    config_key UK
+    config_value
+    value_type
+    config_category
+    is_editable
+    is_sensitive
+    validation_rules
+    ...
+}
+```
+
+**Resolution Options:**
+
+**Option A:** Rename `admin_configurations` → `system_settings`
+- ✅ Matches design document
+- ✅ Consistent naming
+- ⚠️ Requires migration to rename table
+
+**Option B:** Keep `admin_configurations`, skip `system_settings`
+- ✅ No migration needed
+- ✅ Already implemented and working
+- ⚠️ Deviates from design
+
+**Option C:** Use both tables
+- ❌ Redundant
+- ❌ Confusing
+- ❌ Not recommended
+
+**RECOMMENDATION:** **Option A** - Rename to `system_settings` to match design document.
+
+---
+
+### **2. `tat_alerts` vs `tat_tracking`**
+
+**Status:** These serve **DIFFERENT purposes** and should **COEXIST**.
+
+**`tat_alerts` (Implemented):**
+- Historical record of TAT alerts sent
+- Stores when 50%, 75%, 100% alerts were sent
+- Immutable records for audit trail
+- Purpose: **Alert History**
+
+**`tat_tracking` (Planned, Not Implemented):**
+```sql
+tat_tracking {
+    tracking_type "REQUEST or LEVEL"
+    tat_status "ON_TRACK to BREACHED"
+    elapsed_hours
+    remaining_hours
+    percentage_used
+    threshold_50_breached
+    threshold_80_breached
+    ...
+}
+```
+- Real-time tracking of TAT status
+- Continuously updated as time passes
+- Shows current TAT health
+- Purpose: **Real-time Monitoring**
+
+**Resolution:** Both tables should exist.
+
+**RECOMMENDATION:** Implement `tat_tracking` table as per design document.
+
+---
+
+### **3. `holidays` Table**
+
+**Status:** **NEW addition** not in original design.
+
+**Resolution:** This is fine! It's a feature enhancement that was needed for accurate TAT calculations.
+
+**RECOMMENDATION:** Add `holidays` to the design document for future reference.
+
+---
+
+## 📋 **Recommended Actions**
+
+### **Immediate Actions:**
+
+1. **Rename `admin_configurations` to `system_settings`**
+   ```sql
+   ALTER TABLE admin_configurations RENAME TO system_settings;
+   ALTER INDEX admin_configurations_pkey RENAME TO system_settings_pkey;
+   ALTER INDEX admin_configurations_config_category RENAME TO system_settings_config_category;
+   -- etc.
+   ```
+
+2. **Update all references in code:**
+   - Model: `AdminConfiguration` → `SystemSetting`
+   - Service: `adminConfig` → `systemSettings`
+   - Routes: `/admin/configurations` → `/admin/settings`
+   - Controller: `admin.controller.ts` → Update variable names
+
+3. **Implement `tat_tracking` table** (as per design):
+   - Create migration for `tat_tracking`
+   - Implement model and service
+   - Integrate with TAT calculation system
+   - Use for real-time dashboard
+
+4. **Update `backend_structure.txt`**:
+   - Add `holidays` table to design
+   - Update `system_settings` if we made any changes
+   - Add `tat_alerts` if not present
+
+---
+
+### **Future Implementations (Phase 2):**
+
+Based on the design document, these should be implemented next:
+
+1. **`notifications` table** - In-app notification system
+2. **`conclusion_remarks` table** - AI-generated conclusions
+3. **`audit_logs` table** - Comprehensive audit trail (currently using `activities`)
+4. **`email_logs` & `sms_logs`** - Communication tracking
+5. **`workflow_templates`** - Template system for common workflows
+6. **`report_cache`** - Performance optimization for reports
+
+---
+
+## 📊 **Implementation Progress**
+
+### **Core Workflow:**
+- ✅ Users
+- ✅ Workflow Requests
+- ✅ Approval Levels
+- ✅ Participants
+- ✅ Documents
+- ✅ Work Notes
+- ✅ Activities
+
+### **TAT & Monitoring:**
+- ✅ TAT Alerts (historical)
+- ✅ Holidays (for TAT calculation)
+- ❌ TAT Tracking (real-time) **← MISSING**
+
+### **Configuration & Admin:**
+- ✅ Admin Configurations (needs rename to `system_settings`)
+- ❌ Workflow Templates **← MISSING**
+
+### **Notifications & Logs:**
+- ✅ Subscriptions (push notifications)
+- ❌ Notifications table **← MISSING**
+- ❌ Email Logs **← MISSING**
+- ❌ SMS Logs **← MISSING**
+
+### **Advanced Features:**
+- ❌ Conclusion Remarks (AI) **← MISSING**
+- ❌ Audit Logs **← MISSING**
+- ❌ Report Cache **← MISSING**
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 **Alignment with Design Document**
+
+### **What Matches Design:**
+- ✅ Core workflow tables (90% match)
+- ✅ Work notes system
+- ✅ Document management
+- ✅ Activity logging
+
+### **What Differs:**
+- ⚠️ `admin_configurations` should be `system_settings`
+- ⚠️ `tat_alerts` exists but `tat_tracking` doesn't
+- ✅ `holidays` is a new addition (enhancement)
+
+### **What's Missing:**
+- ❌ 10 tables from design not yet implemented
+- ❌ Some relationships not fully realized
+
+---
+
+## 💡 **Recommendations Summary**
+
+### **Critical (Do Now):**
+1. ✅ **Rename `admin_configurations` to `system_settings`** - Align with design
+2. ✅ **Implement `tat_tracking` table** - Complete TAT system
+3. ✅ **Update design document** - Add holidays table
+
+### **Important (Phase 2):**
+4. ⏳ **Implement `notifications` table** - Centralized notification management
+5. ⏳ **Implement `audit_logs` table** - Enhanced audit trail
+6. ⏳ **Implement `email_logs` & `sms_logs`** - Communication tracking
+
+### **Nice to Have (Phase 3):**
+7. 🔮 **Implement `conclusion_remarks`** - AI integration
+8. 🔮 **Implement `workflow_templates`** - Template system
+9. 🔮 **Implement `report_cache`** - Performance optimization
+
+---
+
+## 📝 **Conclusion**
+
+**Answer to the question:** "Did you consider backend_structure.txt?"
+
+**Honest Answer:** Not fully. I created `admin_configurations` without checking that `system_settings` was already designed. However:
+
+1. ✅ The functionality is the same
+2. ⚠️ The naming is different
+3. 🔧 Easy to fix with a rename migration
+
+**Next Steps:**
+1. Decide: Rename to `system_settings` (recommended) or keep as-is?
+2. Implement missing `tat_tracking` table
+3. Update design document with new `holidays` table
+
+---
+
+**Created:** November 4, 2025  
+**Status:** Analysis Complete  
+**Action Required:** Yes - Table rename + implement tat_tracking

+# 🔧 Backend Fixes Applied - November 4, 2025
+
+## ✅ Issue 1: TypeScript Compilation Error
+
+### **Error:**
+```
+src/services/tatScheduler.service.ts:30:15 - error TS2339: 
+Property 'halfTime' does not exist on type 'Promise<{ halfTime: Date; ... }>'.
+```
+
+### **Root Cause:**
+`calculateTatMilestones()` was changed from sync to async (to support holiday checking), but `tatScheduler.service.ts` was calling it without `await`.
+
+### **Fix Applied:**
+```typescript
+// Before (❌ Missing await):
+const { halfTime, seventyFive, full } = calculateTatMilestones(now, tatDurationHours);
+
+// After (✅ With await):
+const { halfTime, seventyFive, full } = await calculateTatMilestones(now, tatDurationHours);
+```
+
+**File:** `Re_Backend/src/services/tatScheduler.service.ts` (line 30)
+
+---
+
+## ✅ Issue 2: Empty Configurations Table
+
+### **Problem:**
+`admin_configurations` table created but empty → Frontend can't fetch any configurations.
+
+### **Fix Applied:**
+Created auto-seeding service that runs on server startup:
+
+**File:** `Re_Backend/src/services/configSeed.service.ts`
+- Checks if configurations exist
+- If empty, seeds 10 default configurations:
+  - 6 TAT Settings (default hours, thresholds, working hours)
+  - 3 Document Policy settings
+  - 2 AI Configuration settings
+
+### **Integration:**
+Updated `Re_Backend/src/server.ts` to call `seedDefaultConfigurations()` on startup.
+
+**Output on server start:**
+```
+⚙️  System configurations initialized
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📋 **Default Configurations Seeded**
+
+| Config Key | Value | Category | UI Component |
+|------------|-------|----------|--------------|
+| `DEFAULT_TAT_EXPRESS_HOURS` | 24 | TAT_SETTINGS | number |
+| `DEFAULT_TAT_STANDARD_HOURS` | 48 | TAT_SETTINGS | number |
+| `TAT_REMINDER_THRESHOLD_1` | 50 | TAT_SETTINGS | slider |
+| `TAT_REMINDER_THRESHOLD_2` | 75 | TAT_SETTINGS | slider |
+| `WORK_START_HOUR` | 9 | TAT_SETTINGS | number |
+| `WORK_END_HOUR` | 18 | TAT_SETTINGS | number |
+| `MAX_FILE_SIZE_MB` | 10 | DOCUMENT_POLICY | number |
+| `ALLOWED_FILE_TYPES` | pdf,doc,... | DOCUMENT_POLICY | text |
+| `DOCUMENT_RETENTION_DAYS` | 365 | DOCUMENT_POLICY | number |
+| `AI_REMARK_GENERATION_ENABLED` | true | AI_CONFIGURATION | toggle |
+| `AI_REMARK_MAX_CHARACTERS` | 500 | AI_CONFIGURATION | number |
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 **How to Verify**
+
+### **Step 1: Restart Backend**
+```bash
+cd Re_Backend
+npm run dev
+```
+
+### **Expected Output:**
+```
+⚙️  System configurations initialized
+📅 Holiday calendar loaded for TAT calculations
+🚀 Server running on port 5000
+```
+
+### **Step 2: Check Database**
+```sql
+SELECT COUNT(*) FROM admin_configurations;
+-- Should return: 11 (10 default configs)
+
+SELECT config_key, config_value FROM admin_configurations ORDER BY sort_order;
+-- Should show all seeded configurations
+```
+
+### **Step 3: Test Frontend**
+```bash
+# Login as admin
+# Navigate to Settings → System Configuration tab
+# Should see all configurations grouped by category
+```
+
+---
+
+## ✅ **Status: Both Issues Resolved**
+
+| Issue | Status | Fix |
+|-------|--------|-----|
+| TypeScript compilation error | ✅ Fixed | Added `await` to async function call |
+| Empty configurations table | ✅ Fixed | Auto-seeding on server startup |
+| Holiday list not fetching | ✅ Will work | Backend now starts successfully |
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 **Next Steps**
+
+1. ✅ **Restart backend** - `npm run dev`
+2. ✅ **Verify configurations seeded** - Check logs for "System configurations initialized"
+3. ✅ **Test frontend** - Login as admin and view Settings
+4. ✅ **Add holidays** - Use the Holiday Calendar tab
+
+---
+
+**All systems ready! 🚀**
+

+
+## 🎯 TAT Calculation with Holidays
+
+### **STANDARD Priority (Working Days):**
+
+**Excludes:**
+- ✅ Saturdays (day 6)
+- ✅ Sundays (day 0)
+- ✅ Holidays from `holidays` table
+- ✅ Outside working hours (before 9 AM, after 6 PM)
+
+**Example:**
+```
+Submit: Monday Oct 20 at 10:00 AM
+TAT: 48 hours (STANDARD priority)
+Holiday: Tuesday Oct 21 (Diwali)
+
+Calculation:
+Monday 10 AM - 6 PM = 8 hours (total: 8h)
+Tuesday = HOLIDAY (skipped)
+Wednesday 9 AM - 6 PM = 9 hours (total: 17h)
+Thursday 9 AM - 6 PM = 9 hours (total: 26h)
+Friday 9 AM - 6 PM = 9 hours (total: 35h)
+Saturday-Sunday = WEEKEND (skipped)
+Monday 9 AM - 10 PM = 13 hours (total: 48h)
+
+Due: Monday Oct 27 at 10:00 AM
+```
+
+### **EXPRESS Priority (Calendar Days):**
+
+**Excludes: NOTHING**
+- All days included (weekends, holidays, 24/7)
+
+**Example:**
+```
+Submit: Monday Oct 20 at 10:00 AM
+TAT: 48 hours (EXPRESS priority)
+
+Due: Wednesday Oct 22 at 10:00 AM (exactly 48 hours later)
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🔄 Holiday Cache System
+
+### **How It Works:**
+
+```
+1. Server Starts
+   ↓
+2. Load holidays from database (current year + next year)
+   ↓
+3. Store in memory cache (Set of date strings)
+   ↓
+4. Cache expires after 6 hours
+   ↓
+5. Auto-reload when expired
+   ↓
+6. Manual reload when admin adds/updates/deletes holiday
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- ⚡ Fast lookups (O(1) Set lookup)
+- 💾 Minimal memory (just date strings)
+- 🔄 Auto-refresh every 6 hours
+- 🎯 Immediate update when admin changes holidays
+
+---
+
+## 🎨 Frontend UI (To Be Built)
+
+### **Admin Dashboard → Holiday Management:**
+
+```tsx
+<HolidayManagementPage>
+  {/* Year Selector */}
+  <YearSelector 
+    currentYear={2025}
+    onChange={loadHolidaysForYear}
+  />
+  
+  {/* Calendar View */}
+  <CalendarGrid year={2025}>
+    {/* Days with holidays highlighted */}
+    <Day date="2025-01-26" isHoliday holidayName="Republic Day" />
+    <Day date="2025-08-15" isHoliday holidayName="Independence Day" />
+  </CalendarGrid>
+  
+  {/* List View */}
+  <HolidayList>
+    <HolidayCard
+      date="2025-01-26"
+      name="Republic Day"
+      type="NATIONAL"

+## 🚀 Quick Start
+
+### **Step 1: Run Migrations**
+
+```bash
+cd Re_Backend
+npm run migrate
+```
+
+**You'll see:**
+```
+✅ Holidays table created successfully
+✅ Admin configurations table created and seeded
+```
+
+### **Step 2: Import Indian Holidays (Optional)**
+
+Create a script or use the API:
+
+```bash
+# Using curl (requires admin token):
+curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/api/admin/holidays/bulk-import \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ADMIN_TOKEN" \
+  -d @data/indian_holidays_2025.json
+```
+
+### **Step 3: Verify Holidays Loaded**
+
+```sql
+SELECT COUNT(*) FROM holidays WHERE is_active = true;
+-- Should return 14 (or however many you imported)
+```
+
+### **Step 4: Restart Backend**
+
+```bash
+npm run dev
+```
+
+**You'll see:**
+```

+  "holidayName": "New Year's Eve",
+  "description": "Last day of the year",
+  "holidayType": "ORGANIZATIONAL"
+}
+```
+
+### **Test 2: Verify Holiday Affects TAT**
+
+```bash
+# 1. Create STANDARD priority request on Dec 30
+# 2. Set TAT: 16 hours (2 working days)

+
+## 🚀 How to Use
+
+### **Step 1: Run Migrations**
+
+```bash
+cd Re_Backend
+npm run migrate
+```
+
+**Expected Output:**
+```
+✅ Holidays table created successfully
+✅ Admin configurations table created and seeded
+```
+
+### **Step 2: Restart Backend**
+
+```bash
+npm run dev
+```
+
+**Expected Output:**
+```
+📅 Holiday calendar loaded for TAT calculations
+[TAT Utils] Loaded 0 holidays into cache (will load when admin adds holidays)
+```
+
+### **Step 3: Add Holidays via API**
+
+**Option A: Add Individual Holiday:**
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/api/admin/holidays \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ADMIN_TOKEN" \
+  -d '{
+    "holidayDate": "2025-11-05",
+    "holidayName": "Diwali",
+    "description": "Festival of Lights",
+    "holidayType": "NATIONAL"
+  }'
+```
+
+**Option B: Bulk Import:**
+```bash
+# Use the sample data file:
+curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/api/admin/holidays/bulk-import \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ADMIN_TOKEN" \
+  -d @data/indian_holidays_2025.json
+```
+
+### **Step 4: Test TAT with Holidays**
+
+```bash
+# 1. Create STANDARD priority request
+# 2. TAT calculation will now skip holidays
+# 3. Due date will be later if holidays fall within TAT period
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📊 TAT Calculation Examples
+
+### **Example 1: No Holidays in TAT Period**
+
+```
+Submit: Monday Dec 1, 10:00 AM
+TAT: 24 hours (STANDARD)
+Holidays: None in this period
+
+Calculation:
+Monday 10 AM - 6 PM = 8 hours
+Tuesday 9 AM - 1 PM = 4 hours
+Total = 12 hours (needs 12 more)
+...
+Due: Tuesday 1:00 PM
+```
+
+### **Example 2: Holiday in TAT Period**
+
+```
+Submit: Friday Oct 31, 10:00 AM
+TAT: 24 hours (STANDARD)
+Holiday: Monday Nov 3 (Diwali)
+
+Calculation:
+Friday 10 AM - 6 PM = 8 hours
+Saturday-Sunday = WEEKEND (skipped)
+Monday = HOLIDAY (skipped)
+Tuesday 9 AM - 6 PM = 9 hours (total: 17h)
+Wednesday 9 AM - 2 PM = 5 hours (total: 22h)
+...
+Due: Wednesday Nov 5 at 2:00 PM
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🔒 Security
+
+### **Admin Access Required:**
+
+All holiday and configuration endpoints check:
+1. ✅ User is authenticated (`authenticateToken`)
+2. ✅ User has admin role (`requireAdmin`)
+
+**Non-admins get:**
+```json
+{
+  "success": false,
+  "error": "Admin access required"
+}
+```
+
+---
+

+
+---
+
+## 📊 Impact on Existing Requests
+
+### **For Existing Requests:**
+
+**Before Holidays Table:**
+- TAT calculation: Weekends only
+
+**After Holidays Table:**
+- TAT calculation: Weekends + Holidays
+- Due dates may change for active requests
+- Historical requests unchanged
+
+---
+
+## 🆘 Troubleshooting
+
+### **Holidays Not Excluded from TAT?**
+
+**Check:**
+1. Holidays cache loaded? Look for "Loaded X holidays into cache" in logs
+2. Priority is STANDARD? (EXPRESS doesn't use holidays)
+3. Holiday is active? `is_active = true`
+4. Holiday date is correct format? `YYYY-MM-DD`
+
+**Debug:**
+```sql
+-- Check if holiday exists
+SELECT * FROM holidays 
+WHERE holiday_date = '2025-11-05'
+  AND is_active = true;
+```
+
+### **Cache Not Updating After Adding Holiday?**
+
+**Solution:**
+- Cache refreshes automatically when admin adds/updates/deletes
+- If not working, restart backend server
+- Cache refreshes every 6 hours automatically
+
+---
+

+# ✅ KPI & TAT Reporting System - Setup Complete!
+
+## 🎉 What's Been Implemented
+
+### 1. TAT Alerts Table (`tat_alerts`)
+
+**Purpose**: Store every TAT notification (50%, 75%, 100%) for display and KPI analysis
+
+**Features**:
+- ✅ Records all TAT notifications sent
+- ✅ Tracks timing, completion status, and compliance
+- ✅ Stores metadata for rich reporting
+- ✅ Displays like the shared image: "Reminder 1: 50% of SLA breach reminder have been sent"
+
+**Example Query**:
+```sql
+-- Get TAT alerts for a specific request (for UI display)
+SELECT 
+  alert_type,
+  threshold_percentage,
+  alert_sent_at,
+  alert_message
+FROM tat_alerts
+WHERE request_id = 'YOUR_REQUEST_ID'
+ORDER BY alert_sent_at ASC;
+```
+
+---
+
+### 2. Eight KPI Views Created
+
+All views are ready to use for reporting and dashboards:
+
+| View Name | Purpose | KPI Category |
+|-----------|---------|--------------|
+| `vw_request_volume_summary` | Request counts, status, cycle times | Volume & Status |
+| `vw_tat_compliance` | TAT compliance tracking | TAT Efficiency |
+| `vw_approver_performance` | Approver metrics, response times | Approver Load |
+| `vw_tat_alerts_summary` | TAT alerts with response times | TAT Efficiency |
+| `vw_department_summary` | Department-wise statistics | Volume & Status |
+| `vw_daily_kpi_metrics` | Daily trends and metrics | Trends |
+| `vw_workflow_aging` | Aging analysis | Volume & Status |
+| `vw_engagement_metrics` | Comments, documents, collaboration | Engagement & Quality |
+
+---
+
+### 3. Complete KPI Coverage
+
+All KPIs from your requirements are now supported:
+
+#### ✅ Request Volume & Status
+- Total Requests Created
+- Open Requests (with age)
+- Approved Requests
+- Rejected Requests
+
+#### ✅ TAT Efficiency
+- Average TAT Compliance %
+- Avg Approval Cycle Time
+- Delayed Workflows
+- TAT Breach History
+
+#### ✅ Approver Load
+- Pending Actions (My Queue)
+- Approvals Completed (Today/Week)
+- Approver Performance Metrics
+
+#### ✅ Engagement & Quality
+- Comments/Work Notes Added
+- Attachments Uploaded
+- Spectator Participation
+
+---
+
+## 📊 Example Queries
+
+### Show TAT Reminders (Like Your Image)
+
+```sql
+-- For displaying TAT alerts in Request Detail screen
+SELECT 
+  CASE
+    WHEN alert_type = 'TAT_50' THEN '⏳ 50% of SLA breach reminder have been sent'
+    WHEN alert_type = 'TAT_75' THEN '⚠️ 75% of SLA breach reminder have been sent'
+    WHEN alert_type = 'TAT_100' THEN '⏰ TAT breached - Immediate action required'
+  END as reminder_text,
+  'Reminder sent by system automatically' as description,
+  alert_sent_at
+FROM tat_alerts
+WHERE request_id = 'REQUEST_ID'
+  AND level_id = 'LEVEL_ID'
+ORDER BY threshold_percentage ASC;
+```
+
+### TAT Compliance Rate
+
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  ROUND(
+    COUNT(CASE WHEN completed_within_tat = true THEN 1 END) * 100.0 / 
+    NULLIF(COUNT(CASE WHEN completed_within_tat IS NOT NULL THEN 1 END), 0),
+    2
+  ) as compliance_percentage
+FROM vw_tat_compliance;
+```
+
+### Approver Performance Leaderboard
+
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  approver_name,
+  department,
+  ROUND(tat_compliance_percentage, 2) as compliance_percent,
+  approved_count,
+  ROUND(avg_response_time_hours, 2) as avg_response_hours,
+  breaches_count
+FROM vw_approver_performance
+WHERE total_assignments > 0
+ORDER BY tat_compliance_percentage DESC
+LIMIT 10;
+```
+
+### Department Comparison
+
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  department,
+  total_requests,
+  approved_requests,
+  ROUND(approved_requests * 100.0 / NULLIF(total_requests, 0), 2) as approval_rate,
+  ROUND(avg_cycle_time_hours / 24, 2) as avg_cycle_days
+FROM vw_department_summary
+WHERE department IS NOT NULL
+ORDER BY total_requests DESC;
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 How TAT Alerts Work
+
+### 1. When Request is Submitted
+
+```
+✅ TAT monitoring starts for Level 1
+✅ Jobs scheduled: 50%, 75%, 100%
+✅ level_start_time and tat_start_time set
+```
+
+### 2. When Notification Fires
+
+```
+✅ Notification sent to approver
+✅ Record created in tat_alerts table
+✅ Activity logged
+✅ Flags updated in approval_levels
+```
+
+### 3. Display in UI
+
+```javascript
+// Frontend can fetch and display like:
+const alerts = await getTATAlerts(requestId, levelId);
+
+alerts.forEach(alert => {
+  console.log(`Reminder ${alert.threshold_percentage}%: ${alert.alert_message}`);
+  console.log(`Sent at: ${formatDate(alert.alert_sent_at)}`);
+});
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📈 Analytical Reports Supported
+
+1. **Request Lifecycle Report** - Complete timeline with TAT
+2. **Approver Performance Report** - Leaderboard & metrics
+3. **Department-wise Summary** - Cross-department comparison
+4. **TAT Breach Report** - All breached requests with reasons
+5. **Priority Distribution** - Express vs Standard analysis
+6. **Workflow Aging** - Long-running requests
+7. **Daily/Weekly Trends** - Time-series analysis
+8. **Engagement Metrics** - Collaboration tracking
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 Next Steps
+
+### 1. Setup Upstash Redis (REQUIRED)
+
+TAT notifications need Redis to work:
+
+1. Go to: https://console.upstash.com/
+2. Create free Redis database

+# ✅ Holiday Calendar & Admin Configuration - Setup Complete!
+
+## 🎉 Successfully Implemented
+
+### **Database Tables Created:**
+1. ✅ `holidays` - Organization holiday calendar
+2. ✅ `admin_configurations` - System-wide admin settings
+
+### **API Endpoints Created:**
+- ✅ `/api/admin/holidays` - CRUD operations for holidays
+- ✅ `/api/admin/configurations` - Manage admin settings
+
+### **Features Implemented:**
+- ✅ Holiday management (add/edit/delete/bulk import)
+- ✅ TAT calculation excludes holidays for STANDARD priority
+- ✅ Automatic holiday cache with 6-hour refresh
+- ✅ Admin configuration system ready for future UI
+- ✅ Sample Indian holidays data (2025) prepared for import
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 Quick Start
+
+### **1. Verify Tables:**
+```bash
+# Check if tables were created
+psql -d your_database -c "\dt holidays"
+psql -d your_database -c "\dt admin_configurations"
+```
+
+### **2. Start the Backend:**
+```bash
+npm run dev
+```
+
+**You should see:**
+```
+📅 Holiday calendar loaded for TAT calculations
+[TAT Utils] Loaded 0 holidays into cache
+```
+
+### **3. Add Your First Holiday (via API):**
+
+**As Admin user:**
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/api/admin/holidays \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ADMIN_TOKEN" \
+  -d '{
+    "holidayDate": "2025-11-05",
+    "holidayName": "Diwali",
+    "description": "Festival of Lights",
+    "holidayType": "NATIONAL"
+  }'
+```
+
+### **4. Bulk Import Indian Holidays (Optional):**
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/api/admin/holidays/bulk-import \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ADMIN_TOKEN" \
+  -d @data/indian_holidays_2025.json
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📊 How It Works
+
+### **TAT Calculation with Holidays:**
+
+**STANDARD Priority:**
+- ❌ Skips **weekends** (Saturday/Sunday)
+- ❌ Skips **holidays** (from holidays table)
+- ✅ Only counts **working hours** (9 AM - 6 PM)
+
+**EXPRESS Priority:**
+- ✅ Includes **all days** (24/7)
+- ✅ No holidays or weekends excluded
+
+---
+
+## 📚 Documentation
+
+- **Full Guide:** `docs/HOLIDAY_CALENDAR_SYSTEM.md`
+- **Complete Summary:** `HOLIDAY_AND_ADMIN_CONFIG_COMPLETE.md`
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 Next Steps
+
+### **For Backend Developers:**
+1. Test holiday API endpoints
+2. Verify TAT calculations with holidays
+3. Add more admin configurations as needed
+
+### **For Frontend Developers:**
+1. Build Admin Holiday Management UI
+2. Create Holiday Calendar view
+3. Implement Configuration Settings page
+
+---
+
+## 🔍 Verify Setup
+
+### **Check Holidays Table:**
+```sql
+SELECT * FROM holidays;
+-- Should return 0 rows (no holidays added yet)
+```
+
+### **Check Admin Configurations:**
+```sql
+SELECT * FROM admin_configurations;
+-- Should return 0 rows (will be seeded on first use)
+```
+
+### **Test Holiday API:**
+```bash
+# Get all holidays for 2025
+curl http://localhost:5000/api/admin/holidays?year=2025 \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ADMIN_TOKEN"
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📋 Sample Holidays Data
+
+**File:** `data/indian_holidays_2025.json`
+
+Contains 14 Indian national holidays for 2025:
+- Republic Day (Jan 26)
+- Holi
+- Independence Day (Aug 15)
+- Gandhi Jayanti (Oct 2)
+- Diwali
+- Christmas
+- And more...
+
+---
+
+## ✅ Setup Status
+
+| Component | Status | Notes |
+|-----------|--------|-------|
+| **Holidays Table** | ✅ Created | With 4 indexes |
+| **Admin Config Table** | ✅ Created | With 3 indexes |
+| **Holiday Model** | ✅ Implemented | Full CRUD support |
+| **Holiday Service** | ✅ Implemented | Including bulk import |
+| **Admin Controller** | ✅ Implemented | All endpoints ready |
+| **Admin Routes** | ✅ Implemented | Secured with admin middleware |
+| **TAT Integration** | ✅ Implemented | Holidays excluded for STANDARD |
+| **Holiday Cache** | ✅ Implemented | 6-hour expiry, auto-refresh |
+| **Sample Data** | ✅ Created | 14 holidays for 2025 |
+| **Documentation** | ✅ Complete | Full guide available |
+
+---
+
+## 🎓 Example Usage
+
+### **Create Request with Holiday in TAT Period:**
+
+```javascript
+// Create STANDARD priority request
+POST /api/workflows
+{
+  "title": "Test Request",
+  "priority": "STANDARD",
+  "approvers": [
+    { "email": "approver@example.com", "tatHours": 48 }
+  ]
+}
+
+// If holidays exist between now and +48 hours:
+// - Due date will be calculated skipping those holidays
+// - TAT calculation will be accurate
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🛠️ Troubleshooting
+
+### **Holidays not excluded from TAT?**
+
+1. Check if holidays cache is loaded:
+   - Look for "Loaded X holidays into cache" in server logs
+2. Verify priority is STANDARD (EXPRESS doesn't use holidays)
+3. Check if holiday exists and is active:
+   ```sql
+   SELECT * FROM holidays WHERE holiday_date = '2025-11-05' AND is_active = true;
+   ```
+
+### **Cache not updating after adding holiday?**
+
+- Cache refreshes automatically when admin adds/updates/deletes holidays
+- If not working, restart backend server
+- Cache also refreshes every 6 hours automatically
+

+1. **Open this link**: https://console.upstash.com/
+   - Sign up with GitHub/Google (it's free)
+
+2. **Create Redis Database**:
+   - Click "Create Database"
+   - Name: `redis-tat-dev`
+   - Type: Regional
+   - Region: Pick closest to you
+   - Click "Create"
+
+3. **Copy the Redis URL**:
+   - You'll see: `rediss://default:AbC123xyz...@us1-mighty-12345.upstash.io:6379`
+   - Click the copy button 📋
+
+4. **Open** `Re_Backend/.env` and add:
+   ```bash
+   REDIS_URL=rediss://default:AbC123xyz...@us1-mighty-12345.upstash.io:6379
+   TAT_TEST_MODE=true
+   ```
+
+5. **Restart Backend**:
+   ```bash
+   cd Re_Backend
+   npm run dev
+   ```
+
+6. **Look for this** in the logs:
+   ```
+   ✅ [TAT Queue] Connected to Redis
+   ✅ [TAT Worker] Initialized and listening
+   ⏰ TAT Configuration:
+      - Test Mode: ENABLED (1 hour = 1 minute)
+   ```
+
+✅ **DONE!** You're ready to test!
+
+---
+
+## Test It Now (6 Minutes)
+
+1. **Create a workflow request** via your frontend
+2. **Set TAT: 6 hours** (will become 6 minutes in test mode)
+3. **Submit the request**
+4. **Watch for notifications**:
+   - **3 minutes**: ⏳ 50% notification
+   - **4.5 minutes**: ⚠️ 75% warning
+   - **6 minutes**: ⏰ 100% breach
+
+---
+
+## Verify It's Working
+
+### Check Backend Logs:
+```bash
+# You should see:
+[TAT Scheduler] Calculating TAT milestones...
+[TAT Scheduler] ✅ TAT jobs scheduled
+[TAT Processor] Processing tat50...
+[TAT Processor] tat50 notification sent
+```
+
+### Check Upstash Console:
+1. Go to https://console.upstash.com/
+2. Click your database
+3. Click "CLI" tab
+4. Type: `KEYS bull:tatQueue:*`
+5. Should see your scheduled jobs
+
+### Check Database:
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  approver_name,
+  tat50_alert_sent,
+  tat75_alert_sent,
+  tat_breached,
+  status
+FROM approval_levels
+WHERE status = 'IN_PROGRESS';
+```
+
+---
+
+## What Test Mode Does
+
+```
+Normal Mode:         Test Mode:
+48 hours  →          48 minutes
+24 hours  →          24 minutes
+6 hours   →          6 minutes
+2 hours   →          2 minutes
+
+✅ Perfect for quick testing!
+✅ Turn off for production: TAT_TEST_MODE=false
+```
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### ❌ "ECONNREFUSED" Error?
+
+**Fix**:
+1. Check your `.env` file has `REDIS_URL=rediss://...`
+2. Verify the URL is correct (copy from Upstash again)
+3. Make sure it starts with `rediss://` (double 's')
+4. Restart backend: `npm run dev`
+
+### ❌ No Logs About Redis?
+
+**Fix**:
+1. Check `.env` file exists in `Re_Backend/` folder
+2. Make sure you restarted the backend
+3. Look for any errors in console
+
+### ❌ Jobs Not Running?
+
+**Fix**:
+1. Verify `TAT_TEST_MODE=true` in `.env`
+2. Make sure request is SUBMITTED (not just created)
+3. Check Upstash Console → Metrics (see if commands are running)
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+Once you see the first notification working:
+
+1. ✅ Test multi-level approvals
+2. ✅ Test early approval (jobs should cancel)
+3. ✅ Test rejection flow
+4. ✅ Check activity logs
+5. ✅ Verify database flags

+# ✅ TAT Alerts Display System - Complete Implementation
+
+## 🎉 What's Been Implemented
+
+Your TAT notification system now **stores every alert** in the database and **displays them in the UI** exactly like your shared screenshot!
+
+---
+
+## 📊 Complete Flow
+
+### 1. When Request is Submitted
+
+```typescript
+// First level approver assigned
+Level 1: John (TAT: 24 hours)
+  ↓
+TAT jobs scheduled for John:
+  - 50% alert (12 hours)
+  - 75% alert (18 hours)  
+  - 100% breach (24 hours)
+```
+
+### 2. When Notification Fires (e.g., 50%)
+
+**Backend (`tatProcessor.ts`):**
+```typescript
+✅ Send notification to John
+✅ Create record in tat_alerts table
+✅ Log activity
+✅ Update approval_levels flags
+```
+
+**Database Record Created:**
+```sql
+INSERT INTO tat_alerts (
+  request_id, level_id, approver_id,
+  alert_type = 'TAT_50',
+  threshold_percentage = 50,
+  alert_message = '⏳ 50% of TAT elapsed...',
+  alert_sent_at = NOW(),
+  ...
+)
+```
+
+### 3. When Displayed in Frontend
+
+**API Response** (`workflow.service.ts`):
+```typescript
+{
+  workflow: {...},
+  approvals: [...],
+  tatAlerts: [  // ← NEW!
+    {
+      alertType: 'TAT_50',
+      thresholdPercentage: 50,
+      alertSentAt: '2024-10-06T14:30:00Z',
+      alertMessage: '⏳ 50% of TAT elapsed...',
+      levelId: 'abc-123',
+      ...
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+**Frontend Display** (`RequestDetail.tsx`):
+```tsx
+<div className="bg-yellow-50 border-yellow-200 p-3 rounded-lg">
+  ⏳ Reminder 1
+  50% of SLA breach reminder have been sent
+  Reminder sent by system automatically
+  Sent at: Oct 6 at 2:30 PM
+</div>
+```
+

+
+## 🔄 Complete Data Flow
+
+### Backend:
+
+1. **TAT Processor** (`tatProcessor.ts`):
+   - Sends notification to approver
+   - Creates record in `tat_alerts` table
+   - Logs activity
+
+2. **Workflow Service** (`workflow.service.ts`):
+   - Fetches TAT alerts for request
+   - Includes in API response
+   - Groups by level ID
+
+3. **Approval Service** (`approval.service.ts`):
+   - Updates alerts when level completed
+   - Sets `was_completed_on_time`
+   - Sets `completion_time`
+
+### Frontend:
+
+1. **Request Detail** (`RequestDetail.tsx`):
+   - Receives TAT alerts from API
+   - Filters alerts by level ID
+   - Displays under each approval level
+   - Color-codes by threshold
+
+---
+
+## 📊 Database Schema
+
+### TAT Alerts Table:
+
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  alert_type,          -- TAT_50, TAT_75, TAT_100
+  threshold_percentage, -- 50, 75, 100
+  alert_sent_at,       -- When alert was sent
+  alert_message,       -- Full message text
+  level_id,            -- Which approval level
+  approver_id,         -- Who was notified
+  was_completed_on_time, -- Completed within TAT?
+  completion_time      -- When completed
+FROM tat_alerts
+WHERE request_id = 'YOUR_REQUEST_ID'
+ORDER BY alert_sent_at ASC;
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🧪 Testing the Display
+
+### Step 1: Setup Upstash Redis
+
+See `START_HERE.md` for quick setup (2 minutes)
+
+### Step 2: Enable Test Mode
+
+In `.env`:
+```bash
+TAT_TEST_MODE=true
+```
+
+### Step 3: Create Test Request
+
+- TAT: 6 hours (becomes 6 minutes in test mode)
+- Submit the request
+
+### Step 4: Watch Alerts Appear
+
+**At 3 minutes (50%):**
+```
+⏳ Reminder 1
+50% of SLA breach reminder have been sent
+Reminder sent by system automatically
+Sent at: [timestamp]
+```
+
+**At 4.5 minutes (75%):**
+```
+⚠️ Reminder 2
+75% of SLA breach reminder have been sent
+Reminder sent by system automatically
+Sent at: [timestamp]
+```
+
+**At 6 minutes (100%):**
+```
+⏰ Reminder 3
+100% of SLA breach reminder have been sent
+Reminder sent by system automatically
+Sent at: [timestamp]
+```
+
+### Step 5: Verify in Database
+
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  threshold_percentage,
+  alert_sent_at,
+  was_completed_on_time,
+  completion_time
+FROM tat_alerts
+WHERE request_id = 'YOUR_REQUEST_ID'
+ORDER BY threshold_percentage;
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 Approver-Specific Alerts
+
+### Confirmation: Alerts are Approver-Specific
+
+✅ **Each level's alerts** are sent to **that level's approver only**  
+✅ **Previous approver** does NOT receive alerts for next level  
+✅ **Current approver** receives all their level's alerts (50%, 75%, 100%)  
+
+### Example:
+
+```
+Request Flow:
+  Level 1: John (TAT: 24h)
+    → Alerts sent to: John
+    → At: 12h, 18h, 24h
+  
+  Level 2: Sarah (TAT: 12h)
+    → Alerts sent to: Sarah (NOT John)
+    → At: 6h, 9h, 12h
+  
+  Level 3: Mike (TAT: 8h)
+    → Alerts sent to: Mike (NOT Sarah, NOT John)
+    → At: 4h, 6h, 8h
+```

+## 🔍 Verify Implementation
+
+### Check Backend Logs:
+
+```bash
+# When notification fires:
+[TAT Processor] Processing tat50 for request...
+[TAT Processor] TAT alert record created for tat50
+[TAT Processor] tat50 notification sent
+
+# When workflow details fetched:
+[Workflow] Found 2 TAT alerts for request REQ-2024-001
+```
+
+### Check Database:
+
+```sql
+-- See all alerts for a request
+SELECT * FROM tat_alerts 
+WHERE request_id = 'YOUR_REQUEST_ID'
+ORDER BY alert_sent_at;
+
+-- See alerts with approval info
+SELECT 
+  al.approver_name,
+  al.level_number,
+  ta.threshold_percentage,

+FROM tat_alerts ta
+JOIN approval_levels al ON ta.level_id = al.level_id
+WHERE ta.request_id = 'YOUR_REQUEST_ID';
+```
+
+### Check Frontend:
+
+1. Open Request Detail
+2. Click "Workflow" tab
+3. Look under each approval level card
+4. You should see reminder boxes with:
+   - ⏳ 50% reminder (yellow background)

+  NULLIF(COUNT(*), 0) as compliance_rate
+FROM tat_alerts
+WHERE was_completed_on_time IS NOT NULL;
+```
+
+**Approver Response Time After Alert:**
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  approver_id,
+  alert_type,
+  AVG(
+    EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM (completion_time - alert_sent_at)) / 3600
+  ) as avg_hours_to_respond
+FROM tat_alerts
+WHERE completion_time IS NOT NULL
+GROUP BY approver_id, alert_type;
+```
+
+**Breach Analysis:**
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  DATE(alert_sent_at) as date,
+  COUNT(CASE WHEN alert_type = 'TAT_50' THEN 1 END) as alerts_50,
+  COUNT(CASE WHEN alert_type = 'TAT_75' THEN 1 END) as alerts_75,

+```
+
+### **Time-to-Action After Alert:**
+
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  alert_type,
+  threshold_percentage,
+  ROUND(AVG(
+    EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM (completion_time - alert_sent_at)) / 3600
+  ), 2) as avg_hours_to_respond_after_alert
+FROM tat_alerts
+WHERE completion_time IS NOT NULL
+GROUP BY alert_type, threshold_percentage
+ORDER BY threshold_percentage;
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🔄 Alert Lifecycle
+
+### **1. Alert Created (When Threshold Reached)**
+```typescript
+{
+  alertType: 'TAT_50',
+  thresholdPercentage: 50,
+  tatHoursAllocated: 12,
+  tatHoursElapsed: 6.0,
+  tatHoursRemaining: 6.0,
+  alertSentAt: '2024-10-06T14:30:00Z',
+  expectedCompletionTime: '2024-10-06T18:00:00Z',
+  isBreached: false,
+  wasCompletedOnTime: null, // Not completed yet
+  metadata: { testMode: true, ... }
+}
+```
+
+### **2. Approver Takes Action**
+```typescript
+// Updated when level is approved/rejected
+{
+  ...existingFields,
+  wasCompletedOnTime: true,  // or false
+  completionTime: '2024-10-06T16:00:00Z'
+}
+```
+
+### **3. Displayed in UI**
+```tsx
+// Shows all historical alerts for that level
+// Color-coded by threshold
+// Shows completion status if completed
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🎓 Understanding the Data
+
+### **Allocated Hours (tat_hours_allocated)**
+Total TAT time given to approver for this level
+```
+Example: 12 hours
+Meaning: Approver has 12 hours to approve/reject
+```
+
+### **Elapsed Hours (tat_hours_elapsed)**
+Time used when the alert was sent
+```
+Example: 6.0 hours (at 50% alert)
+Meaning: 6 hours have passed since level started
+```
+
+### **Remaining Hours (tat_hours_remaining)**
+Time left when the alert was sent
+```
+Example: 6.0 hours (at 50% alert)
+Meaning: 6 hours remaining before TAT breach
+Note: Turns red if < 2 hours
+```
+
+### **Expected Completion Time**
+When the level should be completed
+```
+Example: Oct 6 at 6:00 PM
+Meaning: Deadline for this approval level
+```
+
+---
+
+## ⚙️ Configuration Options

+# ⏰ TAT Notifications - Quick Start Guide
+
+## 🎯 Goal
+Get TAT (Turnaround Time) notifications working in **under 5 minutes**!
+
+---
+
+## ✅ Step 1: Setup Redis (Required)
+
+### 🚀 Option A: Upstash (RECOMMENDED - No Installation!)
+
+**Best for Windows/Development - 100% Free**
+
+1. **Sign up**: Go to https://console.upstash.com/
+2. **Create Database**: Click "Create Database"
+   - Name: `redis-tat-dev`
+   - Type: Regional
+   - Region: Choose closest to you
+   - Click "Create"
+3. **Copy Connection URL**: You'll get a URL like:
+   ```
+   rediss://default:AbCd1234...@us1-mighty-shark-12345.upstash.io:6379
+   ```
+4. **Update `.env` in Re_Backend/**:
+   ```bash
+   REDIS_URL=rediss://default:AbCd1234...@us1-mighty-shark-12345.upstash.io:6379
+   ```
+
+✅ **Done!** No installation, no setup, works everywhere!
+
+---
+
+### Alternative: Docker (If you prefer local)
+
+If you have Docker Desktop:
+```bash
+docker run -d --name redis-tat -p 6379:6379 redis:latest
+```
+
+Then in `.env`:
+```bash
+REDIS_URL=redis://localhost:6379
+```
+
+---
+
+## ⚡ Step 2: Enable Test Mode (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)
+
+For testing, enable **fast mode** where **1 hour = 1 minute**:
+
+### Edit `.env` file in `Re_Backend/`:
+```bash
+TAT_TEST_MODE=true
+```
+
+This means:
+- ✅ 6-hour TAT = 6 minutes (instead of 6 hours)
+- ✅ 48-hour TAT = 48 minutes (instead of 48 hours)
+- ✅ Perfect for quick testing!
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 Step 3: Restart Backend
+
+```bash
+cd Re_Backend
+npm run dev
+```
+
+### You Should See:
+```
+✅ [TAT Queue] Connected to Redis
+✅ [TAT Worker] Initialized and listening
+⏰ TAT Configuration:
+   - Test Mode: ENABLED (1 hour = 1 minute)
+   - Redis: rediss://***@upstash.io:6379
+```
+
+💡 If you see connection errors, double-check your `REDIS_URL` in `.env`
+
+---
+
+## 🧪 Step 4: Test It!
+
+### Create a Request:
+1. **Frontend**: Create a new workflow request
+2. **Set TAT**: 6 hours (becomes 6 minutes in test mode)
+3. **Submit** the request
+
+### Watch the Magic:
+```
+✨ At 3 minutes:  ⏳ 50% notification
+✨ At 4.5 minutes: ⚠️ 75% notification  
+✨ At 6 minutes:   ⏰ 100% breach notification
+```
+
+### Check Logs:
+```bash
+# You'll see:
+[TAT Scheduler] ✅ TAT jobs scheduled for request...
+[TAT Processor] Processing tat50 for request...
+[TAT Processor] tat50 notification sent for request...
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📊 Verify in Database
+
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  approver_name,
+  tat_hours,
+  tat50_alert_sent,
+  tat75_alert_sent,
+  tat_breached,
+  status
+FROM approval_levels
+WHERE status = 'IN_PROGRESS';
+```
+
+You should see the flags change as notifications are sent!
+
+---
+
+## ❌ Troubleshooting
+
+### "ECONNREFUSED" or Connection Error?
+**Problem**: Can't connect to Redis
+
+**Solution**:
+1. **Check `.env` file**:
+   ```bash
+   # Make sure REDIS_URL is set correctly
+   REDIS_URL=rediss://default:YOUR_PASSWORD@YOUR_URL.upstash.io:6379
+   ```
+
+2. **Verify Upstash Database**:
+   - Go to https://console.upstash.com/
+   - Check database status (should be "Active")
+   - Copy connection URL again if needed
+
+3. **Test Connection**:
+   - Use Upstash's Redis CLI in their console
+   - Or install `redis-cli` and test:
+     ```bash
+     redis-cli -u "rediss://default:YOUR_PASSWORD@YOUR_URL.upstash.io:6379" ping
+     # Should return: PONG
+     ```
+
+### No Notifications?
+**Checklist**:
+- ✅ REDIS_URL set in `.env`?
+- ✅ Backend restarted after setting REDIS_URL?
+- ✅ TAT_TEST_MODE=true in `.env`?
+- ✅ Request submitted (not just created)?
+- ✅ Logs show "Connected to Redis"?
+
+### Still Issues?
+```bash
+# Check detailed logs
+Get-Content Re_Backend/logs/app.log -Tail 50 -Wait
+
+# Look for:
+# ✅ [TAT Queue] Connected to Redis
+# ❌ [TAT Queue] Redis connection error
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🎓 Testing Scenarios
+
+### Quick Test (6 minutes):
+```
+TAT: 6 hours (6 minutes in test mode)
+├─ 3 min   ⏳ 50% reminder
+├─ 4.5 min ⚠️ 75% warning
+└─ 6 min   ⏰ 100% breach
+```
+
+### Medium Test (24 minutes):
+```
+TAT: 24 hours (24 minutes in test mode)
+├─ 12 min  ⏳ 50% reminder

+3. **TAT will now use real hours**:
+   - 48-hour TAT = actual 48 hours
+   - Working hours: Mon-Fri, 9 AM - 6 PM
+
+---
+
+## 🆘 Need Help?
+
+Common fixes:
+
+### 1. Verify Upstash Connection
+```bash
+# In Upstash Console (https://console.upstash.com/)
+# - Click your database
+# - Use the "CLI" tab to test: PING
+# - Should return: PONG
+```
+
+### 2. Check Environment Variables
+```bash
+# In Re_Backend/.env, verify:
+REDIS_URL=rediss://default:YOUR_PASSWORD@YOUR_URL.upstash.io:6379
+TAT_TEST_MODE=true
+```
+
+### 3. Clear Redis Queue (if needed)
+```bash
+# In Upstash Console CLI tab:
+FLUSHALL
+# This clears all jobs - use only if you need a fresh start
+```
+
+### 4. Restart Backend
+```bash
+cd Re_Backend
+npm run dev
+```
+
+### 5. Check Logs
+```bash

+# 🔍 Troubleshooting TAT Alerts Not Showing
+
+## Quick Diagnosis Steps
+
+### Step 1: Check if Redis is Connected
+
+**Look at your backend console when you start the server:**
+
+✅ **Good** - Redis is working:
+```
+✅ [TAT Queue] Connected to Redis
+✅ [TAT Worker] Worker is ready and listening
+```
+
+❌ **Bad** - Redis is NOT working:
+```
+⚠️ [TAT Worker] Redis connection failed
+⚠️ [TAT Queue] Redis connection failed after 3 attempts
+```
+
+**If you see the bad message:**
+→ TAT alerts will NOT be created because the worker isn't running
+→ You MUST setup Redis first (see `START_HERE.md`)
+
+---
+
+### Step 2: Verify TAT Alerts Table Exists
+
+**Run this SQL:**
+```sql
+SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tat_alerts;
+```
+
+**Expected Result:**
+- If table exists: You'll see a count (maybe 0)
+- If table doesn't exist: Error "relation tat_alerts does not exist"
+
+**If table doesn't exist:**
+```bash
+cd Re_Backend
+npm run migrate
+```
+
+---
+
+### Step 3: Check if TAT Alerts Exist in Database
+
+**Run this SQL:**
+```sql
+-- Check if ANY alerts exist
+SELECT 
+    ta.alert_id,
+    ta.threshold_percentage,
+    ta.alert_sent_at,
+    ta.alert_message,
+    ta.metadata->>'requestNumber' as request_number,
+    ta.metadata->>'approverName' as approver_name
+FROM tat_alerts ta
+ORDER BY ta.alert_sent_at DESC
+LIMIT 10;
+```
+
+**If query returns 0 rows:**
+→ No alerts have been created yet
+→ This means:
+   1. Redis is not connected, OR
+   2. No requests have been submitted, OR
+   3. Not enough time has passed (wait 3 min in test mode)
+
+---
+
+### Step 4: Check API Response
+
+**Option A: Use Debug Endpoint**
+
+Call this URL in your browser or Postman:
+```
+GET http://localhost:5000/api/debug/tat-status
+```
+
+**You'll see:**
+```json
+{
+  "success": true,
+  "status": {
+    "redis": {
+      "configured": true,
+      "url": "rediss://****@upstash.io:6379",
+      "testMode": true
+    },
+    "database": {
+      "connected": true,
+      "tatAlertsTableExists": true,
+      "totalAlerts": 0
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Option B: Check Workflow Details Response**
+
+For a specific request:
+```
+GET http://localhost:5000/api/debug/workflow-details/REQ-2025-XXXXX
+```
+
+**You'll see:**
+```json
+{
+  "success": true,
+  "structure": {
+    "hasTatAlerts": true,
+    "tatAlertsCount": 2
+  },
+  "tatAlerts": [
+    {
+      "alertType": "TAT_50",
+      "thresholdPercentage": 50,
+      "alertSentAt": "...",
+      ...
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+### Step 5: Check Frontend Console
+
+**Open browser DevTools (F12) → Console**
+
+**When you open Request Detail, you should see:**
+```javascript
+// Look for the API response
+Object {
+  workflow: {...},
+  approvals: [...],
+  tatAlerts: [...]  // ← Check if this exists
+}
+```
+
+**If `tatAlerts` is missing or empty:**
+→ Backend is not returning it (go back to Step 3)
+
+**If `tatAlerts` exists but not showing:**
+→ Frontend rendering issue (check Step 6)
+
+---
+
+### Step 6: Verify Frontend Code
+
+**Check if tatAlerts are being processed:**
+
+Open `Re_Figma_Code/src/pages/RequestDetail/RequestDetail.tsx`
+
+**Search for this line (around line 235 and 493):**
+```typescript
+const tatAlerts = Array.isArray(details.tatAlerts) ? details.tatAlerts : [];
+```
+
+**This should be there!** If not, the code wasn't applied.
+
+**Then search for (around line 271 and 531):**
+```typescript
+const levelAlerts = tatAlerts.filter((alert: any) => alert.levelId === levelId);
+```
+
+**And in the JSX (around line 1070):**
+```tsx
+{step.tatAlerts && step.tatAlerts.length > 0 && (
+  <div className="mt-3 space-y-2">
+    {step.tatAlerts.map((alert: any, alertIndex: number) => (
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🐛 Common Issues & Fixes
+
+### Issue 1: "TAT alerts not showing in UI"
+
+**Cause**: Redis not connected
+
+**Fix**:
+1. Setup Upstash: https://console.upstash.com/
+2. Add to `.env`:
+   ```bash
+   REDIS_URL=rediss://default:...@upstash.io:6379
+   TAT_TEST_MODE=true
+   ```
+3. Restart backend
+4. Look for "Connected to Redis" in logs
+
+---
+
+### Issue 2: "tat_alerts table doesn't exist"
+
+**Cause**: Migrations not run
+
+**Fix**:
+```bash
+cd Re_Backend
+npm run migrate
+```
+
+---
+
+### Issue 3: "No alerts in database"
+
+**Cause**: No requests submitted or not enough time passed
+
+**Fix**:
+1. Create a new workflow request
+2. **SUBMIT** the request (not just save as draft)
+3. Wait:
+   - Test mode: 3 minutes for 50% alert
+   - Production: Depends on TAT (e.g., 12 hours for 24-hour TAT)
+
+---
+
+### Issue 4: "tatAlerts is undefined in API response"
+
+**Cause**: Backend code not updated
+
+**Fix**:
+Check `Re_Backend/src/services/workflow.service.ts` line 698:
+```typescript
+return { workflow, approvals, participants, documents, activities, summary, tatAlerts };
+//                                                                                ^^^^^^^^
+// Make sure tatAlerts is included!
+```
+
+---
+
+### Issue 5: "Frontend not displaying alerts even though they exist"
+
+**Cause**: Frontend code not applied or missing key
+
+**Fix**:
+1. Check browser console for errors
+2. Verify `step.tatAlerts` is defined in approval flow
+3. Check if alerts have correct `levelId` matching approval level
+
+---
+
+## 📊 Manual Test Steps
+
+### Step-by-Step Debugging:
+
+**1. Check Redis Connection:**
+```bash
+# Start backend and look for:
+✅ [TAT Queue] Connected to Redis
+```
+
+**2. Create and Submit Request:**
+```bash
+# Via frontend or API:
+POST /api/workflows/create
+POST /api/workflows/{id}/submit
+```
+
+**3. Wait for Alert (Test Mode):**
+```bash
+# For 6-hour TAT in test mode:
+# Wait 3 minutes for 50% alert
+```
+
+**4. Check Database:**
+```sql
+SELECT * FROM tat_alerts ORDER BY alert_sent_at DESC LIMIT 5;
+```
+
+**5. Check API Response:**
+```bash
+GET /api/workflows/{requestNumber}/details
+# Look for tatAlerts array in response
+```
+
+**6. Check Frontend:**
+```javascript
+// Open DevTools Console
+// Navigate to Request Detail
+// Check the console log for API response
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🔧 Debug Commands
+
+### Check TAT System Status:
+```bash
+curl http://localhost:5000/api/debug/tat-status
+```
+
+### Check Workflow Details for Specific Request:
+```bash
+curl http://localhost:5000/api/debug/workflow-details/REQ-2025-XXXXX
+```
+
+### Check Database Directly:
+```sql
+-- Total alerts
+SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tat_alerts;
+
+-- Alerts for specific request
+SELECT * FROM tat_alerts 
+WHERE request_id = (
+  SELECT request_id FROM workflow_requests 
+  WHERE request_number = 'REQ-2025-XXXXX'
+);
+
+-- Pending levels that should get alerts
+SELECT 
+  w.request_number,
+  al.approver_name,
+  al.status,
+  al.tat_start_time,
+  CASE
+    WHEN al.tat_start_time IS NULL THEN 'No TAT monitoring started'
+    ELSE 'TAT monitoring active'
+  END as tat_status
+FROM approval_levels al
+JOIN workflow_requests w ON al.request_id = w.request_id
+WHERE al.status IN ('PENDING', 'IN_PROGRESS');
+```
+
+---

+
+1. **Backend console output** when starting server
+2. **Result of**:
+   ```bash
+   curl http://localhost:5000/api/debug/tat-status
+   ```
+3. **Database query result**:
+   ```sql
+   SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tat_alerts;
+   ```
+4. **Browser console** errors (F12 → Console)
+5. **Request number** you're testing with
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 Most Common Cause
+
+**99% of the time, TAT alerts don't show because:**
+
+❌ **Redis is not connected**
+
+**How to verify:**
+```bash
+# When you start backend, you should see:
+✅ [TAT Queue] Connected to Redis
+
+# If you see this instead:
+⚠️ [TAT Queue] Redis connection failed
+
+# Then:
+# 1. Setup Upstash: https://console.upstash.com/
+# 2. Add REDIS_URL to .env
+# 3. Restart backend
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 Quick Fix Steps
+
+If alerts aren't showing, do this IN ORDER:
+
+```bash
+# 1. Check .env file has Redis URL
+cat Re_Backend/.env | findstr REDIS_URL
+
+# 2. Restart backend
+cd Re_Backend
+npm run dev
+
+# 3. Look for "Connected to Redis" in console
+
+# 4. Create NEW request (don't use old ones)
+
+# 5. SUBMIT the request
+
+# 6. Wait 3 minutes (in test mode)
+
+# 7. Refresh Request Detail page
+
+# 8. Go to Workflow tab
+
+# 9. Alerts should appear under approver card
+```

+# ❓ Why Are TAT Alerts Not Showing?
+
+## 🎯 Follow These Steps IN ORDER
+
+### ✅ Step 1: Is Redis Connected?
+
+**Check your backend console:**
+
+```
+Look for one of these messages:
+```
+
+**✅ GOOD (Redis is working):**
+```
+✅ [TAT Queue] Connected to Redis
+✅ [TAT Worker] Worker is ready and listening
+```
+
+**❌ BAD (Redis NOT working):**
+```
+⚠️ [TAT Worker] Redis connection failed
+⚠️ [TAT Queue] Redis connection failed after 3 attempts
+```
+
+**If you see the BAD message:**
+
+→ **STOP HERE!** TAT alerts will NOT work without Redis!
+
+→ **Setup Upstash Redis NOW:**
+   1. Go to: https://console.upstash.com/
+   2. Sign up (free)
+   3. Create database
+   4. Copy Redis URL
+   5. Add to `Re_Backend/.env`:
+      ```bash
+      REDIS_URL=rediss://default:PASSWORD@host.upstash.io:6379
+      TAT_TEST_MODE=true
+      ```
+   6. Restart backend
+   7. Verify you see "Connected to Redis"
+
+---
+
+### ✅ Step 2: Have You Submitted a Request?
+
+**TAT monitoring starts ONLY when:**
+- ✅ Request is **SUBMITTED** (not just created/saved)
+- ✅ Status changes from DRAFT → PENDING
+
+**To verify:**
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  request_number,
+  status,
+  submission_date
+FROM workflow_requests
+WHERE request_number = 'YOUR_REQUEST_NUMBER';
+```
+
+**Check:**
+- `status` should be `PENDING`, `IN_PROGRESS`, or later
+- `submission_date` should NOT be NULL
+
+**If status is DRAFT:**
+→ Click "Submit" button on the request
+→ TAT monitoring will start
+
+---
+
+### ✅ Step 3: Has Enough Time Passed?
+
+**In TEST MODE (TAT_TEST_MODE=true):**
+- 1 hour = 1 minute
+- For 6-hour TAT:
+  - 50% alert at: **3 minutes**
+  - 75% alert at: **4.5 minutes**
+  - 100% breach at: **6 minutes**
+
+**In PRODUCTION MODE:**
+- 1 hour = 1 hour (real time)
+- For 24-hour TAT:
+  - 50% alert at: **12 hours**
+  - 75% alert at: **18 hours**
+  - 100% breach at: **24 hours**
+
+**Check when request was submitted:**
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  request_number,
+  submission_date,
+  NOW() - submission_date as time_since_submission
+FROM workflow_requests
+WHERE request_number = 'YOUR_REQUEST_NUMBER';
+```
+
+---
+
+### ✅ Step 4: Are Alerts in the Database?
+
+**Run this SQL:**
+```sql
+-- Check if table exists
+SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tat_alerts;
+
+-- If table exists, check for your request
+SELECT 
+  ta.threshold_percentage,
+  ta.alert_sent_at,
+  ta.alert_message,
+  ta.metadata
+FROM tat_alerts ta
+JOIN workflow_requests w ON ta.request_id = w.request_id
+WHERE w.request_number = 'YOUR_REQUEST_NUMBER'
+ORDER BY ta.alert_sent_at;
+```
+
+**Expected Result:**
+- **0 rows** → No alerts sent yet (wait longer OR Redis not connected)
+- **1+ rows** → Alerts exist! (Go to Step 5)
+
+**If table doesn't exist:**
+```bash
+cd Re_Backend
+npm run migrate
+```
+
+---
+
+### ✅ Step 5: Is API Returning tatAlerts?
+
+**Test the API directly:**
+
+**Method 1: Use Debug Endpoint**
+```bash
+curl http://localhost:5000/api/debug/workflow-details/YOUR_REQUEST_NUMBER
+```
+
+**Look for:**
+```json
+{
+  "structure": {
+    "hasTatAlerts": true,  ← Should be true
+    "tatAlertsCount": 2    ← Should be > 0
+  },
+  "tatAlerts": [...]       ← Should have data
+}
+```
+
+**Method 2: Check Network Tab in Browser**
+
+1. Open Request Detail page
+2. Open DevTools (F12) → Network tab
+3. Find the API call to `/workflows/{requestNumber}/details`
+4. Click on it
+5. Check Response tab
+6. Look for `tatAlerts` array
+
+---
+
+### ✅ Step 6: Is Frontend Receiving tatAlerts?
+
+**Open Browser Console (F12 → Console)**
+
+**When you open Request Detail, you should see:**
+```javascript
+[RequestDetail] TAT Alerts received from API: 2 [Array(2)]
+```
+
+**If you see:**
+```javascript
+[RequestDetail] TAT Alerts received from API: 0 []
+```
+
+→ API is NOT returning alerts (go back to Step 4)
+
+---
+
+### ✅ Step 7: Are Alerts Being Displayed?
+
+**In Request Detail:**
+1. Click **"Workflow" tab**
+2. Scroll to the approver card
+3. Look under the approver's comment section
+
+**You should see yellow/orange/red boxes with:**
+```
+⏳ Reminder 1 - 50% TAT Threshold
+```
+
+**If you DON'T see them:**
+→ Check browser console for JavaScript errors
+
+---
+
+## 🔍 Quick Diagnostic
+
+**Run ALL of these and share the results:**
+
+### 1. Backend Status:
+```bash
+curl http://localhost:5000/api/debug/tat-status
+```
+
+### 2. Database Query:
+```sql
+SELECT COUNT(*) as total FROM tat_alerts;
+```
+
+### 3. Browser Console:
+```javascript
+// Open Request Detail
+// Check console for:
+[RequestDetail] TAT Alerts received from API: X [...]
+```
+
+### 4. Network Response:
+```
+DevTools → Network → workflow details call → Response tab
+Look for "tatAlerts" field
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 Most Likely Issues (In Order)
+
+### 1. Redis Not Connected (90% of cases)
+**Symptom**: No "Connected to Redis" in logs
+**Fix**: Setup Upstash, add REDIS_URL, restart
+
+### 2. Request Not Submitted (5%)
+**Symptom**: Request status is DRAFT
+**Fix**: Click Submit button
+
+### 3. Not Enough Time Passed (3%)
+**Symptom**: Submitted < 3 minutes ago (in test mode)
+**Fix**: Wait 3 minutes for first alert
+
+### 4. TAT Worker Not Running (1%)
+**Symptom**: Redis connected but no "Worker is ready" message
+**Fix**: Restart backend server
+
+### 5. Frontend Code Not Applied (1%)
+**Symptom**: API returns tatAlerts but UI doesn't show them
+**Fix**: Refresh browser, clear cache
+
+---
+
+## 🚨 Emergency Checklist
+
+**Do this RIGHT NOW to verify everything:**
+
+```bash
+# 1. Check backend console for Redis connection
+# Look for: ✅ [TAT Queue] Connected to Redis
+
+# 2. If NOT connected, setup Upstash:
+# https://console.upstash.com/
+
+# 3. Add to .env:
+# REDIS_URL=rediss://...
+# TAT_TEST_MODE=true
+
+# 4. Restart backend
+npm run dev
+
+# 5. Check you see "Connected to Redis"
+
+# 6. Create NEW request with 6-hour TAT
+
+# 7. SUBMIT the request
+
+# 8. Wait 3 minutes
+
+# 9. Open browser console (F12)
+
+# 10. Open Request Detail page
+
+# 11. Check console log for:
+# [RequestDetail] TAT Alerts received from API: X [...]
+
+# 12. Go to Workflow tab
+
+# 13. Alerts should appear!
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📞 Share These for Help
+
+If still not working, share:
+
+1. **Backend console output** (first 50 lines after starting)
+2. **Result of**: `curl http://localhost:5000/api/debug/tat-status`
+3. **SQL result**: `SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tat_alerts;`
+4. **Browser console** when opening Request Detail
+5. **Request number** you're testing with
+6. **How long ago** was the request submitted?
+
+---
+
+## ✅ Working Example
+
+**When everything works, you'll see:**
+
+**Backend Console:**
+```
+✅ [TAT Queue] Connected to Redis
+✅ [TAT Worker] Worker is ready
+[TAT Scheduler] ✅ TAT jobs scheduled for request REQ-2025-001
+```
+
+**After 3 minutes (test mode):**
+```
+[TAT Processor] Processing tat50 for request REQ-2025-001
+[TAT Processor] TAT alert record created for tat50
+[TAT Processor] tat50 notification sent
+```
+
+**Browser Console:**
+```javascript
+[RequestDetail] TAT Alerts received from API: 1 [
+  {
+    alertType: "TAT_50",
+    thresholdPercentage: 50,
+    alertSentAt: "2025-11-04T...",
+    ...
+  }
+]
+```
+
+**UI Display:**
+```
+⏳ Reminder 1 - 50% TAT Threshold
+50% of SLA breach reminder have been sent
+...
+```
+

+
+**Most likely you just need to setup Redis! See `START_HERE.md`**

+## 📅 Holiday Calendar System - Complete Guide
+
+## Overview
+
+The Holiday Calendar System allows administrators to manage organizational holidays that are excluded from TAT (Turnaround Time) calculations for **STANDARD priority** requests.
+
+**Key Features:**
+- ✅ Admin can add/edit/delete holidays
+- ✅ Supports different holiday types (National, Regional, Organizational, Optional)
+- ✅ Recurring holidays (e.g., Independence Day every year)
+- ✅ Department/location-specific holidays
+- ✅ Bulk import from CSV/JSON
+- ✅ Automatic integration with TAT calculations
+- ✅ Year-based calendar view
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 How It Works
+
+### **For STANDARD Priority:**
+```
+Working Days = Monday-Friday (excluding weekends AND holidays)
+TAT Calculation = Skips Saturdays, Sundays, AND holidays
+```
+
+### **For EXPRESS Priority:**
+```
+Calendar Days = All days (including weekends and holidays)
+TAT Calculation = Continuous (no skipping)
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📊 Database Schema
+
+### **Holidays Table:**
+
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE holidays (
+  holiday_id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
+  holiday_date DATE NOT NULL UNIQUE,
+  holiday_name VARCHAR(200) NOT NULL,
+  description TEXT,
+  is_recurring BOOLEAN DEFAULT false,
+  recurrence_rule VARCHAR(100),  -- For annual recurring
+  holiday_type ENUM('NATIONAL', 'REGIONAL', 'ORGANIZATIONAL', 'OPTIONAL'),
+  is_active BOOLEAN DEFAULT true,
+  applies_to_departments TEXT[],  -- NULL = all departments
+  applies_to_locations TEXT[],    -- NULL = all locations
+  created_by UUID REFERENCES users(user_id),
+  updated_by UUID REFERENCES users(user_id),
+  created_at TIMESTAMP,
+  updated_at TIMESTAMP
+);
+```
+
+---
+

+
+## 📝 Sample Holidays Data
+
+### **Indian National Holidays 2025:**
+
+```json
+[
+  { "date": "2025-01-26", "name": "Republic Day", "type": "NATIONAL" },
+  { "date": "2025-03-14", "name": "Holi", "type": "NATIONAL" },
+  { "date": "2025-03-30", "name": "Ram Navami", "type": "NATIONAL" },
+  { "date": "2025-04-10", "name": "Mahavir Jayanti", "type": "NATIONAL" },
+  { "date": "2025-04-14", "name": "Ambedkar Jayanti", "type": "NATIONAL" },
+  { "date": "2025-04-18", "name": "Good Friday", "type": "NATIONAL" },
+  { "date": "2025-05-01", "name": "May Day", "type": "NATIONAL" },
+  { "date": "2025-08-15", "name": "Independence Day", "type": "NATIONAL" },
+  { "date": "2025-08-27", "name": "Janmashtami", "type": "NATIONAL" },
+  { "date": "2025-10-02", "name": "Gandhi Jayanti", "type": "NATIONAL" },
+  { "date": "2025-10-22", "name": "Dussehra", "type": "NATIONAL" },

+  { "date": "2025-12-25", "name": "Christmas", "type": "NATIONAL" }
+]
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🔄 TAT Calculation Integration
+
+### **How Holidays Affect TAT:**
+
+**Example: 48-hour TAT for STANDARD priority**
+
+**Without Holidays:**
+```
+Submit: Monday 10:00 AM
+Due: Wednesday 10:00 AM (48 working hours, skipping weekend)
+```
+
+**With Holiday (Tuesday is holiday):**
+```
+Submit: Monday 10:00 AM
+Holiday: Tuesday (skipped)
+Due: Thursday 10:00 AM (48 working hours, skipping Tuesday AND weekend)
+```
+
+### **TAT Calculation Logic:**
+
+```typescript
+// For STANDARD priority:
+1. Start from submission time
+2. Add hours one by one
+3. Skip if:
+   - Weekend (Saturday/Sunday)
+   - Outside working hours (before 9 AM or after 6 PM)
+   - Holiday (from holidays table)
+4. Continue until all hours are added
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🏗️ Architecture
+
+### **Holiday Cache System:**
+
+```
+Server Startup
+  ↓
+Load holidays from database
+  ↓
+Cache in memory (Set of dates)
+  ↓
+Cache expires after 6 hours
+  ↓
+Reload automatically
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- ✅ Fast lookups (no DB query for each hour)
+- ✅ Automatic refresh
+- ✅ Minimal memory footprint
+
+### **TAT Calculation Flow:**
+
+```
+calculateTatMilestones()
+  ↓
+addWorkingHours()
+  ↓
+loadHolidaysCache() (if expired)
+  ↓
+For each hour:
+  isWorkingTime()
+    ├─ Check weekend? → Skip
+    ├─ Check working hours? → Skip if outside
+    └─ Check holiday? → Skip if holiday
+  ↓
+Return calculated date
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📋 Admin Configuration
+
+### **Admin Can Configure:**
+
+| Config Area | Options | Default |

+
+---
+
+## 🧪 Testing Holiday Integration
+
+### **Test Scenario 1: Add Holiday**
+
+```bash
+# 1. Add a holiday for tomorrow
+POST /api/admin/holidays
+{
+  "holidayDate": "2025-11-05",
+  "holidayName": "Test Holiday",
+  "holidayType": "ORGANIZATIONAL"
+}
+
+# 2. Create request with 24-hour STANDARD TAT
+# Expected: Due date should skip the holiday
+
+# 3. Verify TAT calculation excludes the holiday
+```
+
+### **Test Scenario 2: Recurring Holiday**
+
+```bash
+# 1. Add Independence Day (recurring)
+POST /api/admin/holidays
+{
+  "holidayDate": "2025-08-15",
+  "holidayName": "Independence Day",
+  "isRecurring": true,
+  "recurrenceRule": "FREQ=YEARLY;BYMONTH=8;BYMONTHDAY=15"
+}
+
+# 2. Test requests spanning this date
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📊 Holiday Statistics API
+
+### **Get Holiday Count by Type:**
+
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  holiday_type,
+  COUNT(*) as count
+FROM holidays
+WHERE is_active = true
+  AND EXTRACT(YEAR FROM holiday_date) = 2025
+GROUP BY holiday_type;
+```
+
+### **Get Upcoming Holidays:**
+
+```sql
+SELECT 
+  holiday_name,
+  holiday_date,
+  holiday_type
+FROM holidays
+WHERE holiday_date >= CURRENT_DATE
+  AND holiday_date <= CURRENT_DATE + INTERVAL '90 days'
+  AND is_active = true
+ORDER BY holiday_date;
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🔒 Security
+
+### **Admin Only Access:**
+
+All holiday and configuration management endpoints require:
+1. ✅ Valid JWT token (`authenticateToken`)
+2. ✅ Admin role (`requireAdmin`)
+
+**Middleware Chain:**
+```typescript
+router.use(authenticateToken);  // Must be logged in
+router.use(requireAdmin);        // Must be admin
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🎓 Best Practices
+
+### **1. Holiday Naming:**
+- Use clear, descriptive names
+- Include year if not recurring
+- Example: "Diwali 2025" or "Independence Day" (recurring)
+
+### **2. Types:**
+- **NATIONAL**: Applies to entire country
+- **REGIONAL**: Specific to state/region
+- **ORGANIZATIONAL**: Company-specific
+- **OPTIONAL**: Optional holidays (float)
+
+### **3. Department/Location Specific:**
+```json
+{
+  "holidayName": "Regional Holiday",
+  "appliesToDepartments": ["Sales", "Marketing"],
+  "appliesToLocations": ["Mumbai", "Delhi"]
+}
+```
+
+### **4. Recurring Holidays:**
+```json
+{
+  "isRecurring": true,
+  "recurrenceRule": "FREQ=YEARLY;BYMONTH=8;BYMONTHDAY=15"
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 Deployment
+
+### **Initial Setup:**
+
+1. **Run Migrations:**
+   ```bash
+   npm run migrate
+   ```
+
+2. **Import Indian Holidays:**
+   ```bash
+   curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/api/admin/holidays/bulk-import \
+   -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+   -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ADMIN_TOKEN" \
+   -d @sample_holidays_2025.json
+   ```
+
+3. **Verify:**
+   ```bash
+   curl http://localhost:5000/api/admin/holidays?year=2025
+   ```

+
+**Purpose**: Store all TAT notification records for display and KPI analysis
+
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE tat_alerts (
+  alert_id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
+  request_id UUID REFERENCES workflow_requests(request_id),
+  level_id UUID REFERENCES approval_levels(level_id),
+  approver_id UUID REFERENCES users(user_id),
+  alert_type ENUM('TAT_50', 'TAT_75', 'TAT_100'),
+  threshold_percentage INTEGER, -- 50, 75, or 100
+  tat_hours_allocated DECIMAL(10,2),
+  tat_hours_elapsed DECIMAL(10,2),
+  tat_hours_remaining DECIMAL(10,2),
+  level_start_time TIMESTAMP,
+  alert_sent_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT NOW(),
+  expected_completion_time TIMESTAMP,
+  alert_message TEXT,
+  notification_sent BOOLEAN DEFAULT true,
+  notification_channels TEXT[], -- ['push', 'email', 'sms']

+  }
+
+  /**
+   * Get TAT Alerts for Request
+   */
+  async getTATAlertsForRequest(requestId: string) {
+    return await TatAlert.findAll({
+      where: { requestId },
+      order: [['alertSentAt', 'ASC']],
+      include: [
+        { model: ApprovalLevel, as: 'level' },
+        { model: User, as: 'approver' }
+      ]
+    });
+  }
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📋 Maintenance & Performance
+
+### Indexes
+
+All views use indexed columns for optimal performance:
+- `request_id`, `level_id`, `approver_id`
+- `status`, `created_at`, `alert_sent_at`
+- `is_deleted` (for soft deletes)
+
+### Refresh Materialized Views (if needed)
+
+If you convert views to materialized views for better performance:
+
+```sql
+-- Refresh all materialized views
+REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY mv_request_volume_summary;
+REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY mv_tat_compliance;
+-- etc.
+```

+# Redis Setup for Windows
+
+## Method 1: Using Memurai (Redis-compatible for Windows)
+
+Memurai is a Redis-compatible server for Windows.
+
+1. **Download Memurai**:
+   - Visit: https://www.memurai.com/get-memurai
+   - Download the installer
+
+2. **Install**:
+   - Run the installer
+   - Choose default options
+   - It will automatically start as a Windows service
+
+3. **Verify**:
+   ```powershell
+   # Check if service is running
+   Get-Service Memurai
+   
+   # Or connect with redis-cli
+   memurai-cli ping
+   # Should return: PONG
+   ```
+
+4. **Configure** (if needed):
+   - Default port: 6379
+   - Service runs automatically on startup
+
+## Method 2: Using Docker Desktop
+
+1. **Install Docker Desktop**:
+   - Download from: https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop
+
+2. **Start Redis Container**:
+   ```powershell
+   docker run -d --name redis -p 6379:6379 redis:7-alpine
+   ```
+
+3. **Verify**:
+   ```powershell
+   docker ps | Select-String redis
+   ```
+
+## Method 3: Using WSL2 (Windows Subsystem for Linux)
+
+1. **Enable WSL2**:
+   ```powershell
+   wsl --install
+   ```
+
+2. **Install Redis in WSL**:
+   ```bash
+   sudo apt update
+   sudo apt install redis-server
+   sudo service redis-server start
+   ```
+
+3. **Verify**:
+   ```bash
+   redis-cli ping
+   # Should return: PONG
+   ```
+
+## Quick Test
+
+After starting Redis, test the connection:
+
+```powershell
+# If you have redis-cli or memurai-cli
+redis-cli ping
+
+# Or use telnet
+Test-NetConnection -ComputerName localhost -Port 6379
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Port Already in Use
+```powershell
+# Check what's using port 6379
+netstat -ano | findstr :6379
+
+# Kill the process if needed
+taskkill /PID <PID> /F
+```
+
+### Service Not Starting
+```powershell
+# For Memurai
+net start Memurai
+
+# Check logs
+Get-EventLog -LogName Application -Source Memurai -Newest 10
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+Default Redis/Memurai configuration works out of the box. No changes needed for development.
+
+**Connection String**: `redis://localhost:6379`
+
+## Production Considerations
+
+- Use Redis authentication in production
+- Configure persistence (RDB/AOF)
+- Set up monitoring and alerts
+- Consider Redis Cluster for high availability
+
+---
+
+**Recommended for Windows Development**: Memurai (easiest) or Docker Desktop

+# TAT (Turnaround Time) Notification System
+
+## Overview
+
+The TAT Notification System automatically tracks and notifies approvers about their approval deadlines at key milestones (50%, 75%, and 100% of allotted time). It uses a queue-based architecture with BullMQ and Redis to ensure reliable, scheduled notifications.
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+┌─────────────────┐
+│  Workflow       │
+│  Submission     │
+└────────┬────────┘
+         │
+         ├──> Schedule TAT Jobs (50%, 75%, 100%)
+         │
+┌────────▼────────┐     ┌──────────────┐     ┌─────────────┐
+│   TAT Queue     │────>│  TAT Worker  │────>│ Processor   │
+│   (BullMQ)      │     │  (Background)│     │  Handler    │
+└─────────────────┘     └──────────────┘     └──────┬──────┘
+                                                     │
+                                                     ├──> Send Notification
+                                                     ├──> Update Database
+                                                     └──> Log Activity
+```
+
+## Components
+
+### 1. TAT Time Utilities (`tatTimeUtils.ts`)
+
+Handles working hours calculations (Monday-Friday, 9 AM - 6 PM):
+
+```typescript
+// Calculate TAT milestones considering working hours
+const { halfTime, seventyFive, full } = calculateTatMilestones(startDate, tatHours);
+```
+
+**Key Functions:**
+- `addWorkingHours()`: Adds working hours to a start date, skipping weekends
+- `calculateTatMilestones()`: Calculates 50%, 75%, and 100% time points
+- `calculateDelay()`: Computes delay in milliseconds from now to target
+
+### 2. TAT Queue (`tatQueue.ts`)
+
+BullMQ queue configuration with Redis:
+
+```typescript
+export const tatQueue = new Queue('tatQueue', {
+  connection: IORedis,
+  defaultJobOptions: {
+    removeOnComplete: true,
+    removeOnFail: false,
+    attempts: 3,
+    backoff: { type: 'exponential', delay: 2000 }
+  }
+});
+```
+
+### 3. TAT Processor (`tatProcessor.ts`)
+
+Handles job execution when TAT milestones are reached:
+
+```typescript
+export async function handleTatJob(job: Job<TatJobData>) {
+  // Process tat50, tat75, or tatBreach
+  // - Send notification to approver
+  // - Update database flags
+  // - Log activity
+}
+```
+
+**Job Types:**
+- `tat50`: ⏳ 50% of TAT elapsed (gentle reminder)
+- `tat75`: ⚠️ 75% of TAT elapsed (escalation warning)
+- `tatBreach`: ⏰ 100% of TAT elapsed (breach notification)
+
+### 4. TAT Worker (`tatWorker.ts`)
+
+Background worker that processes jobs from the queue:
+
+```typescript
+export const tatWorker = new Worker('tatQueue', handleTatJob, {
+  connection,
+  concurrency: 5,
+  limiter: { max: 10, duration: 1000 }
+});
+```
+
+**Features:**
+- Concurrent job processing (up to 5 jobs)
+- Rate limiting (10 jobs/second)
+- Automatic retry on failure
+- Graceful shutdown on SIGTERM/SIGINT
+
+### 5. TAT Scheduler Service (`tatScheduler.service.ts`)
+
+Service for scheduling and managing TAT jobs:
+
+```typescript
+// Schedule TAT jobs for an approval level
+await tatSchedulerService.scheduleTatJobs(
+  requestId,
+  levelId,
+  approverId,
+  tatHours,
+  startTime
+);
+
+// Cancel TAT jobs when level is completed
+await tatSchedulerService.cancelTatJobs(requestId, levelId);
+```
+
+## Database Schema
+
+### New Fields in `approval_levels` Table
+
+```sql
+ALTER TABLE approval_levels ADD COLUMN tat50_alert_sent BOOLEAN NOT NULL DEFAULT false;
+ALTER TABLE approval_levels ADD COLUMN tat75_alert_sent BOOLEAN NOT NULL DEFAULT false;
+ALTER TABLE approval_levels ADD COLUMN tat_breached BOOLEAN NOT NULL DEFAULT false;
+ALTER TABLE approval_levels ADD COLUMN tat_start_time TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE;
+```
+
+**Field Descriptions:**
+- `tat50_alert_sent`: Tracks if 50% notification was sent
+- `tat75_alert_sent`: Tracks if 75% notification was sent
+- `tat_breached`: Tracks if TAT deadline was breached
+- `tat_start_time`: Timestamp when TAT monitoring started
+
+## Integration Points
+
+### 1. Workflow Submission
+
+When a workflow is submitted, TAT monitoring starts for the first approval level:
+
+```typescript
+// workflow.service.ts - submitWorkflow()
+await current.update({
+  levelStartTime: now,
+  tatStartTime: now,
+  status: ApprovalStatus.IN_PROGRESS
+});
+
+await tatSchedulerService.scheduleTatJobs(
+  requestId,
+  levelId,
+  approverId,
+  tatHours,
+  now
+);
+```
+
+### 2. Approval Flow
+
+When a level is approved, TAT jobs are cancelled and new ones are scheduled for the next level:
+
+```typescript
+// approval.service.ts - approveLevel()
+// Cancel current level TAT jobs
+await tatSchedulerService.cancelTatJobs(requestId, levelId);
+
+// Schedule TAT jobs for next level
+await tatSchedulerService.scheduleTatJobs(
+  nextRequestId,
+  nextLevelId,
+  nextApproverId,
+  nextTatHours,
+  now
+);
+```
+
+### 3. Rejection Flow
+
+When a level is rejected, all pending TAT jobs are cancelled:
+
+```typescript
+// approval.service.ts - approveLevel()
+await tatSchedulerService.cancelTatJobs(requestId, levelId);
+```
+
+## Notification Flow
+
+### 50% TAT Alert (⏳)
+
+**Message:** "50% of TAT elapsed for Request REQ-XXX: [Title]"
+
+**Actions:**
+- Send push notification to approver
+- Update `tat50_alert_sent = true`
+- Update `tat_percentage_used = 50`
+- Log activity: "50% of TAT time has elapsed"
+
+### 75% TAT Alert (⚠️)
+
+**Message:** "75% of TAT elapsed for Request REQ-XXX: [Title]. Please take action soon."
+
+**Actions:**
+- Send push notification to approver
+- Update `tat75_alert_sent = true`
+- Update `tat_percentage_used = 75`
+- Log activity: "75% of TAT time has elapsed - Escalation warning"
+
+### 100% TAT Breach (⏰)
+
+**Message:** "TAT breached for Request REQ-XXX: [Title]. Immediate action required!"
+
+**Actions:**
+- Send push notification to approver
+- Update `tat_breached = true`
+- Update `tat_percentage_used = 100`
+- Log activity: "TAT deadline reached - Breach notification"
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+```bash
+# Redis connection for TAT queue
+REDIS_URL=redis://localhost:6379
+
+# Optional: TAT monitoring settings
+TAT_CHECK_INTERVAL_MINUTES=30
+TAT_REMINDER_THRESHOLD_1=50
+TAT_REMINDER_THRESHOLD_2=80
+```
+
+### Docker Compose
+
+Redis service is automatically configured:
+
+```yaml
+redis:
+  image: redis:7-alpine
+  container_name: re_workflow_redis
+  ports:
+    - "6379:6379"
+  volumes:
+    - redis_data:/data
+  networks:
+    - re_workflow_network
+  restart: unless-stopped
+```
+
+## Working Hours Configuration
+
+**Default Schedule:**
+- Working Days: Monday - Friday
+- Working Hours: 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM (9 hours/day)
+- Timezone: Server timezone
+
+**To Modify:**
+Edit `WORK_START_HOUR` and `WORK_END_HOUR` in `tatTimeUtils.ts`
+
+## Example Scenario
+
+### Scenario: 48-hour TAT Approval
+
+1. **Workflow Submitted**: Monday 10:00 AM
+2. **50% Alert (24 hours)**: Tuesday 10:00 AM
+   - Notification sent to approver
+   - Database updated: `tat50_alert_sent = true`
+3. **75% Alert (36 hours)**: Wednesday 10:00 AM
+   - Escalation warning sent
+   - Database updated: `tat75_alert_sent = true`
+4. **100% Breach (48 hours)**: Thursday 10:00 AM
+   - Breach alert sent
+   - Database updated: `tat_breached = true`
+
+## Error Handling
+
+### Queue Job Failures
+
+- **Automatic Retry**: Failed jobs retry up to 3 times with exponential backoff
+- **Error Logging**: All failures logged to console and logs
+- **Non-Blocking**: TAT failures don't block workflow approval process
+
+### Redis Connection Failures
+
+- **Graceful Degradation**: Application continues to work even if Redis is down
+- **Reconnection**: Automatic reconnection attempts
+- **Logging**: Connection status logged
+
+## Monitoring & Debugging
+
+### Check Queue Status
+
+```bash
+# View jobs in Redis
+redis-cli
+> KEYS bull:tatQueue:*
+> LRANGE bull:tatQueue:delayed 0 -1
+```
+
+### View Worker Logs
+
+```bash
+# Check worker status in application logs
+grep "TAT Worker" logs/app.log
+grep "TAT Scheduler" logs/app.log
+grep "TAT Processor" logs/app.log
+```
+
+### Database Queries
+
+```sql
+-- Check TAT status for all approval levels
+SELECT 
+  level_id, 
+  request_id, 
+  approver_name,
+  tat_hours,
+  tat_percentage_used,
+  tat50_alert_sent,
+  tat75_alert_sent,
+  tat_breached,
+  level_start_time,
+  tat_start_time
+FROM approval_levels
+WHERE status IN ('PENDING', 'IN_PROGRESS');
+
+-- Find breached TATs
+SELECT * FROM approval_levels WHERE tat_breached = true;
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Always Schedule on Level Start**: Ensure `tatStartTime` is set when a level becomes active
+2. **Always Cancel on Level Complete**: Cancel jobs when level is approved/rejected to avoid duplicate notifications
+3. **Use Job IDs**: Unique job IDs (`tat50-{requestId}-{levelId}`) allow easy cancellation
+4. **Monitor Queue Health**: Regularly check Redis and worker status
+5. **Test with Short TATs**: Use short TAT durations in development for testing
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Notifications Not Sent
+
+1. Check Redis connection: `redis-cli ping`
+2. Verify worker is running: Check logs for "TAT Worker: Initialized"
+3. Check job scheduling: Look for "TAT jobs scheduled" logs
+4. Verify VAPID configuration for push notifications
+
+### Duplicate Notifications
+
+1. Ensure jobs are cancelled when level is completed
+2. Check for duplicate job IDs in Redis
+3. Verify `tat50_alert_sent` and `tat75_alert_sent` flags
+
+### Jobs Not Executing
+
+1. Check system time (jobs use timestamps)
+2. Verify working hours calculation
+3. Check job delays in Redis
+4. Review worker concurrency and rate limits
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+1. **Configurable Working Hours**: Allow per-organization working hours
+2. **Holiday Calendar**: Skip public holidays in TAT calculations
+3. **Escalation Rules**: Auto-escalate to manager on breach
+4. **TAT Dashboard**: Real-time visualization of TAT statuses
+5. **Email Notifications**: Add email alerts alongside push notifications
+6. **SMS Notifications**: Critical breach alerts via SMS
+
+## API Endpoints (Future)
+
+Potential API endpoints for TAT management:
+
+```
+GET  /api/tat/status/:requestId       - Get TAT status for request
+GET  /api/tat/breaches                - List all breached requests
+POST /api/tat/extend/:levelId         - Extend TAT for a level
+GET  /api/tat/analytics                - TAT analytics and reports
+```

+# TAT Notification Testing Guide
+
+## Quick Setup for Testing
+
+### Step 1: Setup Redis
+
+**You MUST have Redis for TAT notifications to work.**
+
+#### 🚀 Option A: Upstash (RECOMMENDED - No Installation!)
+
+**Best choice for Windows development:**
+
+1. Go to: https://console.upstash.com/
+2. Sign up (free)
+3. Create Database:
+   - Name: `redis-tat-dev`
+   - Type: Regional
+   - Region: Choose closest
+4. Copy Redis URL (format: `rediss://default:...@host.upstash.io:6379`)
+5. Add to `Re_Backend/.env`:
+   ```bash
+   REDIS_URL=rediss://default:YOUR_PASSWORD@YOUR_HOST.upstash.io:6379
+   ```
+
+**✅ Done!** No installation, works everywhere!
+
+See detailed guide: `docs/UPSTASH_SETUP_GUIDE.md`
+
+#### Option B: Docker (If you prefer local)
+```bash
+docker run -d --name redis-tat -p 6379:6379 redis:latest
+```
+
+Then in `.env`:
+```bash
+REDIS_URL=redis://localhost:6379
+```
+
+#### Option C: Linux Production
+```bash
+sudo apt install redis-server -y
+sudo systemctl start redis-server
+```
+
+#### Verify Connection
+- **Upstash**: Use Console CLI → `PING` → should return `PONG`
+- **Local**: `Test-NetConnection localhost -Port 6379`
+
+---
+
+### Step 2: Enable Test Mode (Optional but Recommended)
+
+For faster testing, enable test mode where **1 hour = 1 minute**:
+
+1. **Edit your `.env` file**:
+```bash
+TAT_TEST_MODE=true
+```
+
+2. **Restart your backend**:
+```bash
+cd Re_Backend
+npm run dev
+```
+
+3. **Verify test mode is enabled** - You should see:
+```
+⏰ TAT Configuration:
+   - Test Mode: ENABLED (1 hour = 1 minute)
+   - Working Hours: 9:00 - 18:00
+   - Working Days: Monday - Friday
+   - Redis: redis://localhost:6379
+```
+
+---
+
+### Step 3: Create a Test Workflow
+
+#### Production Mode (TAT_TEST_MODE=false)
+- Create a request with **2 hours TAT**
+- Notifications will come at:
+  - **1 hour** (50%)
+  - **1.5 hours** (75%)
+  - **2 hours** (100% breach)
+
+#### Test Mode (TAT_TEST_MODE=true) ⚡ FASTER
+- Create a request with **6 hours TAT** (becomes 6 minutes)
+- Notifications will come at:
+  - **3 minutes** (50%)
+  - **4.5 minutes** (75%)
+  - **6 minutes** (100% breach)
+
+---
+
+### Step 4: Submit and Monitor
+
+1. **Create and Submit Request** via your frontend or API
+
+2. **Check Backend Logs** - You should see:
+```
+[TAT Scheduler] Calculating TAT milestones for request...
+[TAT Scheduler] Start: 2025-11-04 12:00
+[TAT Scheduler] 50%: 2025-11-04 12:03
+[TAT Scheduler] 75%: 2025-11-04 12:04
+[TAT Scheduler] 100%: 2025-11-04 12:06
+[TAT Scheduler] Scheduled tat50 for level...
+[TAT Scheduler] Scheduled tat75 for level...
+[TAT Scheduler] Scheduled tatBreach for level...
+[TAT Scheduler] ✅ TAT jobs scheduled for request...
+```
+
+3. **Wait for Notifications**
+   - Watch the logs
+   - Check push notifications
+   - Verify database updates
+
+4. **Verify Notifications** - Look for:
+```
+[TAT Processor] Processing tat50 for request...
+[TAT Processor] tat50 notification sent for request...
+```
+
+---
+
+## Testing Scenarios
+
+### Scenario 1: Normal Flow (Happy Path)
+```
+1. Create request with TAT = 6 hours (6 min in test mode)
+2. Submit request
+3. Wait for 50% notification (3 min)
+4. Wait for 75% notification (4.5 min)
+5. Wait for 100% breach (6 min)
+```
+
+**Expected Result:**
+- ✅ 3 notifications sent
+- ✅ Database flags updated
+- ✅ Activity logs created
+
+---
+
+### Scenario 2: Early Approval
+```
+1. Create request with TAT = 6 hours
+2. Submit request
+3. Wait for 50% notification (3 min)
+4. Approve immediately
+5. Remaining notifications should be cancelled
+```
+
+**Expected Result:**
+- ✅ 50% notification received
+- ✅ 75% and 100% notifications cancelled
+- ✅ TAT jobs for next level scheduled
+
+---
+
+### Scenario 3: Multi-Level Approval
+```
+1. Create request with 3 approval levels (2 hours each)
+2. Submit request
+3. Level 1: Wait for notifications, then approve
+4. Level 2: Should schedule new TAT jobs
+5. Level 2: Wait for notifications, then approve
+6. Level 3: Should schedule new TAT jobs
+```
+
+**Expected Result:**
+- ✅ Each level gets its own TAT monitoring
+- ✅ Previous level jobs cancelled on approval
+- ✅ New level jobs scheduled
+
+---
+
+### Scenario 4: Rejection
+```
+1. Create request with TAT = 6 hours
+2. Submit request
+3. Wait for 50% notification
+4. Reject the request
+5. All remaining notifications should be cancelled
+```
+
+**Expected Result:**
+- ✅ TAT jobs cancelled
+- ✅ No further notifications
+
+---
+
+## Verification Checklist
+
+### Backend Logs ✅
+```bash
+# Should see these messages:
+✓ [TAT Queue] Connected to Redis
+✓ [TAT Worker] Initialized and listening
+✓ [TAT Scheduler] TAT jobs scheduled
+✓ [TAT Processor] Processing tat50
+✓ [TAT Processor] tat50 notification sent
+```
+
+### Database Check ✅
+```sql
+-- Check approval level TAT status
+SELECT 
+  request_id,
+  level_number,
+  approver_name,
+  tat_hours,
+  tat_percentage_used,
+  tat50_alert_sent,
+  tat75_alert_sent,
+  tat_breached,
+  tat_start_time,
+  status
+FROM approval_levels
+WHERE request_id = '<YOUR_REQUEST_ID>';
+```
+
+**Expected Fields:**
+- `tat_start_time`: Should be set when level starts
+- `tat50_alert_sent`: true after 50% notification
+- `tat75_alert_sent`: true after 75% notification
+- `tat_breached`: true after 100% notification
+- `tat_percentage_used`: 50, 75, or 100
+
+### Activity Logs ✅
+```sql
+-- Check activity timeline
+SELECT 
+  activity_type,
+  activity_description,
+  user_name,
+  created_at
+FROM activities
+WHERE request_id = '<YOUR_REQUEST_ID>'
+ORDER BY created_at DESC;
+```
+
+**Expected Entries:**
+- "50% of TAT time has elapsed"
+- "75% of TAT time has elapsed - Escalation warning"
+- "TAT deadline reached - Breach notification"
+
+### Redis Queue ✅
+```bash
+# Connect to Redis
+redis-cli
+
+# Check scheduled jobs
+KEYS bull:tatQueue:*
+LRANGE bull:tatQueue:delayed 0 -1
+
+# Check job details
+HGETALL bull:tatQueue:tat50-<REQUEST_ID>-<LEVEL_ID>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### ❌ No Notifications Received
+
+**Problem:** TAT jobs scheduled but no notifications
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. Check Redis is running:
+   ```powershell
+   Test-NetConnection localhost -Port 6379
+   ```
+
+2. Check worker is running:
+   ```bash
+   # Look for in backend logs:
+   [TAT Worker] Worker is ready and listening
+   ```
+
+3. Check job delays:
+   ```bash
+   redis-cli
+   > LRANGE bull:tatQueue:delayed 0 -1
+   ```
+
+4. Verify VAPID keys for push notifications:
+   ```bash
+   # In .env file:
+   VAPID_PUBLIC_KEY=...
+   VAPID_PRIVATE_KEY=...
+   ```
+
+---
+
+### ❌ Jobs Not Executing
+
+**Problem:** Jobs scheduled but never execute
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. Check system time is correct
+2. Verify test mode settings
+3. Check worker logs for errors
+4. Restart worker:
+   ```bash
+   # Restart backend server
+   npm run dev
+   ```
+
+---
+
+### ❌ Duplicate Notifications
+
+**Problem:** Receiving multiple notifications for same milestone
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. Check database flags are being set:
+   ```sql
+   SELECT tat50_alert_sent, tat75_alert_sent FROM approval_levels;
+   ```
+
+2. Verify job cancellation on approval:
+   ```bash
+   # Should see in logs:
+   [Approval] TAT jobs cancelled for level...
+   ```
+
+3. Check for duplicate job IDs in Redis
+
+---
+
+### ❌ Redis Connection Errors
+
+**Problem:** `ECONNREFUSED` errors
+
+**Solutions:**
+1. **Start Redis** - See Step 1
+2. Check Redis URL in `.env`:
+   ```bash
+   REDIS_URL=redis://localhost:6379
+   ```
+3. Verify port 6379 is not blocked:
+   ```powershell
+   Test-NetConnection localhost -Port 6379
+   ```
+
+---

+# Upstash Redis Setup Guide
+
+## Why Upstash?
+
+✅ **No Installation**: Works instantly on Windows, Mac, Linux  
+✅ **100% Free Tier**: 10,000 commands/day (more than enough for dev)  
+✅ **Production Ready**: Same service for dev and production  
+✅ **Global CDN**: Fast from anywhere  
+✅ **Zero Maintenance**: No Redis server to manage  
+
+---
+
+## Step-by-Step Setup (3 minutes)
+
+### 1. Create Upstash Account
+
+1. Go to: https://console.upstash.com/
+2. Sign up with GitHub, Google, or Email
+3. Verify your email (if required)
+
+### 2. Create Redis Database
+
+1. **Click "Create Database"**
+2. **Fill in details**:
+   - **Name**: `redis-tat-dev` (or any name you like)
+   - **Type**: Select "Regional"
+   - **Region**: Choose closest to you (e.g., US East, EU West)
+   - **TLS**: Keep enabled (recommended)
+   - **Eviction**: Choose "No Eviction"
+
+3. **Click "Create"**
+
+### 3. Copy Connection URL
+
+After creation, you'll see your database dashboard:
+
+1. **Find "REST API" section**
+2. **Look for "Redis URL"** - it looks like:
+   ```
+   rediss://default:AbCdEfGh1234567890XyZ@us1-mighty-shark-12345.upstash.io:6379
+   ```
+
+3. **Click the copy button** 📋
+
+---
+
+## Configure Your Application
+
+### Edit `.env` File
+
+Open `Re_Backend/.env` and add/update:
+
+```bash
+# Upstash Redis URL
+REDIS_URL=rediss://default:YOUR_PASSWORD@YOUR_URL.upstash.io:6379
+
+# Enable test mode for faster testing
+TAT_TEST_MODE=true
+```
+
+**Important**: 
+- Note the **double `s`** in `rediss://` (TLS enabled)
+- Copy the entire URL including the password
+
+---
+
+## Verify Connection
+
+### Start Your Backend
+
+```bash
+cd Re_Backend
+npm run dev
+```
+
+### Check Logs
+
+You should see:
+```
+✅ [TAT Queue] Connected to Redis
+✅ [TAT Worker] Initialized and listening
+⏰ TAT Configuration:
+   - Test Mode: ENABLED (1 hour = 1 minute)
+   - Redis: rediss://***@upstash.io:6379
+```
+
+---
+
+## Test Using Upstash Console
+
+### Method 1: Web CLI (Easiest)
+
+1. Go to your database in Upstash Console
+2. Click the **"CLI"** tab
+3. Type commands:
+   ```redis
+   PING
+   # → PONG
+   
+   KEYS *
+   # → Shows all keys (should see TAT jobs after submitting request)
+   
+   INFO
+   # → Shows Redis server info
+   ```
+
+### Method 2: Redis CLI (Optional)
+
+If you have `redis-cli` installed:
+
+```bash
+redis-cli -u "rediss://default:YOUR_PASSWORD@YOUR_URL.upstash.io:6379" ping
+# → PONG
+```
+
+---
+
+## Monitor Your TAT Jobs
+
+### View Queued Jobs
+
+In Upstash Console CLI:
+
+```redis
+# List all TAT jobs
+KEYS bull:tatQueue:*
+
+# See delayed jobs
+LRANGE bull:tatQueue:delayed 0 -1
+
+# Get specific job details
+HGETALL bull:tatQueue:tat50-<REQUEST_ID>-<LEVEL_ID>
+```
+
+### Example Output
+
+After submitting a request, you should see:
+```redis
+KEYS bull:tatQueue:*
+# Returns:
+# 1) "bull:tatQueue:id"
+# 2) "bull:tatQueue:delayed"
+# 3) "bull:tatQueue:tat50-abc123-xyz789"
+# 4) "bull:tatQueue:tat75-abc123-xyz789"
+# 5) "bull:tatQueue:tatBreach-abc123-xyz789"
+```

+
+**Upstash Free Tier includes:**
+- ✅ 10,000 commands per day
+- ✅ 256 MB storage
+- ✅ TLS/SSL encryption
+- ✅ Global edge caching

+---
+
+## Production Considerations
+
+### Upgrade When Needed
+
+For production with high traffic:
+- **Pro Plan**: $0.2 per 100K commands
+- **Pay as you go**: No monthly fee
+- **Auto-scaling**: Handles any load
+
+### Security Best Practices
+
+1. **Use TLS**: Always use `rediss://` (double s)
+2. **Rotate Passwords**: Change regularly in production
+3. **IP Restrictions**: Add allowed IPs in Upstash console
+4. **Environment Variables**: Never commit REDIS_URL to Git
+
+### Production Setup
+
+```bash
+# .env.production
+REDIS_URL=rediss://default:PROD_PASSWORD@prod-region.upstash.io:6379
+TAT_TEST_MODE=false  # Use real hours in production
+WORK_START_HOUR=9
+WORK_END_HOUR=18
+```
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Connection Refused Error
+
+**Problem**: `ECONNREFUSED` or timeout
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. **Check URL format**:
+   ```bash
+   # Should be:
+   rediss://default:password@host.upstash.io:6379
+   
+   # NOT:
+   redis://... (missing second 's' for TLS)
+   ```
+
+2. **Verify database is active**:
+   - Go to Upstash Console
+   - Check database status (should be green "Active")
+
+3. **Test connection**:
+   - Use Upstash Console CLI tab
+   - Type `PING` - should return `PONG`
+
+### Slow Response Times
+
+**Problem**: High latency
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. **Choose closer region**:
+   - Delete database
+   - Create new one in region closer to you
+
+2. **Use REST API** (alternative):
+   ```bash
+   UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_URL=https://YOUR_URL.upstash.io
+   UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_TOKEN=YOUR_TOKEN
+   ```
+
+### Command Limit Exceeded
+
+**Problem**: "Daily request limit exceeded"
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. **Check usage**:
+   - Go to Upstash Console → Metrics
+   - See command count
+
+2. **Optimize**:
+   - Remove unnecessary Redis calls
+   - Batch operations where possible
+
+3. **Upgrade** (if needed):
+   - Pro plan: $0.2 per 100K commands
+   - No monthly fee

+## Comparison: Upstash vs Local Redis
+
+| Feature | Upstash | Local Redis |
+|---------|---------|-------------|
+| **Setup Time** | 2 minutes | 10-30 minutes |
+| **Installation** | None | Docker/Memurai |
+| **Maintenance** | Zero | Manual updates |
+| **Cost (Dev)** | Free | Free |
+| **Works Offline** | No | Yes |

+| **Monitoring** | Built-in | Setup required |
+| **Backup** | Automatic | Manual |
+
+**Verdict**: 
+- ✅ **Upstash for most cases** (especially Windows dev)
+- Local Redis only if you need offline development
+
+---
+
+## Migration from Local Redis
+
+If you were using local Redis:
+
+### 1. Export Data (Optional)
+
+```bash
+# From local Redis
+redis-cli --rdb dump.rdb
+
+# Import to Upstash (use Upstash REST API or CLI)
+```
+
+### 2. Update Configuration
+
+```bash
+# Old (.env)
+REDIS_URL=redis://localhost:6379
+
+# New (.env)
+REDIS_URL=rediss://default:PASSWORD@host.upstash.io:6379
+```
+
+### 3. Restart Application
+
+```bash
+npm run dev
+```
+
+**That's it!** No code changes needed - BullMQ works identically.
