Comments Component
Archive Transaction Rows - GL This task is for archiving transactions rows from General Ledger. All vouchers up to and including the selected year and period will be archived. Archiving transactions is only allowed for periods where the accounting year(s) until specified accounting year is in status closed. If the print option is selected Archive Transaction Report will be printed. No     GENLED
Aggregate Shop Order Costs per Shop Order This task is used to calculate the aggregated costs for shop orders to be displayed in the Shop Orders Costs window. All open shop orders in the given site will be processed. If the shop order costs have been calculated previously, the previous aggregation result is removed and new costs are calculated. For closed shop orders, the system investigates if the shop order costs need to be recalculated. Standard, estimated and actual costs and work in progress values for each shop order are captured per shop order. The system logs when the last aggregation occurred. This timestamp can be found in the Last Aggregation Date field in the Shop Orders Costs window. No Daily   SHPORD
All Parts Cost Calculation This task is used to calculate cost for several parts at a time. The calculation updates the part's level labor costs and the cumulative costs in the estimate section of the inventory part register. The structures and operations of the part are calculated, and the costs are rolled up to update the cumulative calculations of the parent part. No Weekly Here we have different cost sets as well COST
Aggregate Level 1 to Level 0 This task calculates the projected balance and available to promise data for the Level 0 family as a whole, using data from Level 1. No Weekly   MASSCH
Auto Processing Shop Order This task is used to perform automatic processing of shop orders. All the requisitions and orders which have had a shop order process type entered in the Shop Order window are processed. Requisitions are converted to shop orders. Shop orders are moved from the Planned status to the Released status. Released shop orders can have their allocations reserved. Only unreleased requisitions are affected. Requisitions that have no order process type are not handled by the automatic order processing function. No Daily   SHPORD
Aggregate Inventory Transactions per Period This is used to update the system's statistical tables. Many of the analysis windows connected to an inventory part use the statistical tables. The inventory statistics are based on the inventory transactions, and the result is divided into statistical periods defined in Statistic Periods window. You can either update inventory part statistics directly, or schedule the task as a background job. No     INVENT
Analyze Inventory Part Demand Deviation This is used to calculate values for Standard Deviation for Issues in Lead Time, Number of Issues in Lead Time and Average Issued Quantity on inventory part. No     INVPLA
Assign Freight Zones This task is used to automatically assign freight maps and zones to supply chain matrix records. The assigning can be performed for all records, specified sites or for specified ship-via codes.
You can either assign freight maps and zones directly, or schedule the task as a background job.
No     ORDER
Auto acknowledge unplanned inventory move transactions This is used to manually acknowledge an offline move part record. An acknowledge reason should be entered and optionally a note text should be entered. No     INVENT
Automatic Distribution Order Release You can release many distribution orders at the same time using this task,  by entering criteria to be met by each distribution order that needs released. The automatic distribution order release can be run online, or different setups of criteria can be scheduled to run at recurring intervals. Any errors that occur during the automatic distribution order release will be logged in the Background Jobs window.
If the Consolidate onto valid CO and PO check box is not selected, each released distribution order will create a new customer order and purchase order. If the check box is selected, all the released distribution orders will be merged into the first available customer order/purchase order in the Released or Reserved status, which match the distribution orders' values for the demand site, supply site, order type, delivery address, forwarding agent, language code, ship via, delivery terms, route, and automatic receipt. If appropriate customer orders/purchase orders do not exist, new ones will be created.
A parameter field left blank means that the parameter will not be used to disqualify any distribution order from being released.
No     DISORD
Automatic Order Processing This task is used to process automatic order processing events for requisitions and purchase orders.

Buffered Operation Reporting This task is used to periodically send the content of scheduling message buffer to CBS server, in CBS scheduled sites which has buffered operation reporting enabled. This prevent locking CBS server when shop flow workers report on shop order operations. This task will also execute adjust schedule functionality of CBS server sites that has the feature enabled. As CBS server will be locked during execution of this task, too frequent execution will lock CBS server too often negating the benefit of enabling buffered operation reporting. If time between executions are too long, a large number of messages can accumulate in the buffer, causing the task to take a long time to complete, increasing lock duration. Therefore appropriate execution interval need to be picked by the customer. No Check Description   CBSINT

You can open/enter a new proposal even if another proposal exists. However, the same invoice or prepayment will not be loaded in more than one proposal at the same time. A proposal can be created only if at least one invoice is due for payment per the reminder date, i.e. per agreed terms of payment. Apart from the general selection criteria of the proposal and the proposal options, the reminder template on each invoice installment controls also whether the installment is loaded into the proposal. The include parameters and the reminder levels of the template are the decisive criteria to load the due item into the proposal. In addition, the exclude parameters of the reminder template are used to load due items into the proposal with status Excluded in order to avoid printing reminders automatically for certain invoices, prepayments or payer. The reminder proposal calculates accrued interest on each invoice per the interest template if this option is also selected in the reminder template. A substitution variable can be selected for the reminder date which is replaced with a real date when the scheduled task creates a new reminder proposal. No     PAYLED
