Batch Version Submission

You must use a batch version to process a report. You can submit a batch version to run locally on a Microsoft Windows client, or you can use any client to submit the batch version to a server.

When you submit a batch version locally, the Microsoft Windows client immediately launches the batch engine process. You have the option to view the output on screen or send it to a printer. This method is used primarily by UBE developers.

The server handles batch processing more efficiently than the workstation. When the batch version is submitted to the server for processing, a message is sent to the server with the defined data selection, data sequencing, and other information necessary to run the report, such as report interconnect values and printer information.

You can submit batch versions to the server using these methods:

• The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Batch Versions (P98305) application on the Microsoft Windows client.

• Another report or interactive application using a report interconnect.

  You must define the report interconnect in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Report Design Aid (RDA). The system launches the child batch version from a batch application or interactive application submitted from either the Microsoft Windows client or the web client.

• The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Batch Versions - Web Version (P98305W) application on the web client.

  On the web client, batch versions are submitted only to the server.

• From the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Menu on the web client.

  For easy access, you can add a report as a task on the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Menu.

• From the command line on the server.
