this may, for example, occur when courses are created after creating (but not publishing!) a validity range. currently, users are not properly informed about why these newly added courses don't appear in the planning process

Proposed solution:

Since tccs are only relevant during lesson-planning and part of lesrooster, course-creation has nothing to do with them. Instead we do a lesrooster only solution: When the course(-bundles) are queried for lesson-planning the query detects if there is no tcc and creates it if missing.

This is the right place to do this, because here validityrange and group are combined.

@hansegucker what do you think of it? Should I get working on it?

The current solution is incomplete. We decided that each course is bound by a tcc to a validityrange. Currently a tcc is implicityly created for each course in scope on validityrange-creation. If the course did not exist then, but is added later, no tcc will be created linking it to the validityrange.
