French term or phrase: en temps et en heure
Hello,

"Ce procédé est étendu pour permettre le bon fonctionnement même si le réseau présente une disponibilité discontinue vers au moins une partie des calculateurs. Dans ce cas, des plages de transfert compatibles avec la disponibilité du réseau sont définies, certaines comme "disponibles"(...), et d'autres comme "activables"(...)
Ce procédé est étendu, au cas ou le réseau présente une disponibilité discontinue, pour n'autoriser que les modifications de la Planification Centralisée qui peuvent être transmises en temps et en heure aux calculateurs concernés."

I am not sure that "in due time" would do here, as the text mentions hours, specific times.

Thank you for your time

agree  Jennifer Levey: The ST refers to the avoidance of delivery of 'modifications de la Planification Centralisée' that would already be 'périmées' before they reach the 'calculateur' that's expected to process them.
