Defining Financial Schedules

You can create General Ledger financial schedules based on different calendars and period types. You can then schedule standard reports, Financial Statement Generator (FSG) reports, AutoAllocation sets, Recurring Journals, MassAllocations, Budget Formulas, and MassBudgets to run according to the General Ledger schedules you have defined. Your journals are automatically generated based on the schedule you assigned. All schedules can be shared across ledgers regardless of the calendar or period type used in the schedule. You can define multiple schedules for each calendar and period type in General Ledger.

To define a financial schedule:

  1. Navigate to the Concurrent Request Schedules window.

  2. Enter a schedule name.

  3. Choose a pre-defined calendar:

  4. Choose a period type.

  5. Enter a Run Day:

    Enter a number from 1 to 366. For example, selecting 5 for run day sets your request to run on the 5th day of the period.

    If you want to run the schedule on the last day of every period, enter a number greater than the maximum number of days in any period, such as 32 for a monthly period containing 31 days. Any number that exceeds the maximum number of days for any period automatically sets the system to run the schedule on the last day of that period.

  6. Enter the time in 24 hour format HH:MM:SS. This is the time you want your program to run on the day specified above.

  7. Check the enabled check box to allow scheduling to be applied from the Standard Report Submission Form.

  8. Save your work.

    Note: In order to use this feature, The Scheduler/PreReleaser concurrent manager must be running. This is a separate concurrent manager used for advanced scheduling purposes.
