You should request that they add the 23K designation to your schedule (ie drop it with a recovery obligation) so you can pick up a recovery slip anywhere between today and the end of the August bid period. They’re supposed to notify you of changes as soon as practical per 23G1 and you should be given the opportunity to exercise your place on the trip coverage ladder (top dog, first step) with a valid 23J slip.
If they don’t do it in time, it’s still a missed step of coverage when the run the coverage ladder.
