Running the Relieve Commitments Request Set Process

You run the Relieve Commitments concurrent request set process to recalculate commitments and post the results to Oracle General Ledger. The request set combines the Calculate Commitments process and the Commitment GL Posting process.

You should run the Relieve Commitments request set periodically after certain events--such as salary payments, or the hiring or termination of employees--post revised actuals to the General Ledger.

You run this process from the Submit Request Set window.
