About Scheduling and Running Oracle Joint Venture Management Processes

The following list describes the processes that you need to run to process joint venture transactions and distributions. The list is based on the recommended order of running the processes on a periodic basis. You can schedule processes individually or use a "process set" to set up multiple processes to run on a schedule. For more information, see Scheduled Processes.

Note: You can also run these processes on demand if you need to reprocess transactions to resolve disputes over distributed amounts or correct other issues. See Correcting Issues with Joint Venture Transactions and Distributions for some example scenarios.
