EOMPO/EOMPOK Overnight (DEP Batch) activation
This process will request the overnight activation of EOMPO and EOMPOK when the relevant command has been configured in DEP.txt (by Hivedome), see below, especially the /EOMACT=Y command
The execution of the DEP process will only proceed when EOMACT has been requested. If the overnight has been requested, it can be cancelled using the same process; note the caption on the button changes from 'Click to Request' to 'Click to Cancel Request'
If there is no frozen EOM database, a message will be displayed and the EOMACT is aborted
If the accounting period of the latest frozen EOM database is closed; there will be a warning with the option to abort.
If any formal EOM reports (i.e. with postings) for the latest frozen EOM database have been run; there will be a warning with the option to abort.
The overnight run uses the latest FREEZE database; which may be different to the latest frozen database at the time of running EOMACT. This will be the situation if daily FREEZE is executed in the overnight; an auto FREEZE must proceed the EOM procedure.
Sample batch command line:
C:\Itas\Exec\e\e68 MenuBatch xx DEP /Report=EOMPO /Postings=N /REPORTFORMAT=Irp,Csv /ReportTypes=REALISEDPHYS, STKMOVE /EOACT=Y
If /Posting switch is absent effect is No postings
If /ReportFormat switch is absent report is .IRP. Reports are stored in OPRINT.
If /ReportTypes switch is absent all reports are executed
if /EOACT switch is absent, the EOMACT x ctrl02 request is NOT applied i.e. will always execute the batch
The /Report switch may be EOMPO or EOMPOK
CMP Privilege 'EOMACT/EOM' can be configured on the server for User accreditation.
Alert 2-260 is issued on completion of the overnight run.
Alert 2-261 is issued if a report can not be run e.g. the formal report for that date/month has already been run.
