Post From: Delayed Futures date for all contract months

I'm not sure I understand. I've come up with a process that looks like this (using metals as an example):
1. Create a SymbolList for all coming months for each commodity in the group (automated step where the same years are used for all commodities in the group). See list below.
2. Create a chart and import the SymbolList in a WatchList
3. Enable WatchList mode and walk through the list manually

I want to replace step 3 with a scan since this manual step takes a lot of time. I have one chart for each commodity group (eneriges, metals etc.). I also have a chart with the same commodities configured as continous contracts so all historic contracts are downloaded as well using this chart.

Do I need to Delete and download the data for each symbol in the list below? I've set up SymbolLists for nine different groups. I have the same problem in all groups. The data for all symbols is not downloaded after the scan (most symbols do not have any data but some do) so I have to perform step 3 each time a want to update. I seams to me as there is some type of timing problem in the scan function (it moves on too quickly instead of waiting for the download to complete?). But I don't know how this is built of course...

Any suggestions on how to simplify this process is much appreciated!
