Using Version Processing Options

You can change the processing options for an existing batch version to suit your business requirements. For example, you can change processing option values that specify a range of dates for a report. However, not all batch versions have processing options associated with them. For example, a list of addresses might not require special prompting.

For batch versions, processing options complete these tasks:

• Change functionality. For example, you can set a processing option to move records to a history file after a report runs.

• Change input parameters. For example, you can set a processing option to specify which category code to use when processing a report.

• Define data. For example, you can set a processing option to define the fiscal year for which you want to run a report. You can also define the employee information included in a report.

Note: The Versions Compare report (RD983051NA) compares the processing options for interactive versions and batch versions between two environments or data sources. You can use this report as an audit or validation tool to determine which versions were added, deleted, or changed. For batch versions, the report also shows processing option values that are different between the versions in the data sources being compared.See "Versions Compare Report" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools Software Updates Guide.
