Notes on Required Periodic Procedures

To ensure productive operation, you also have to schedule technically required programs in
addition to the periodically scheduled programs necessary for business, such as debit position,
dunning and the payment program. To ensure system performance, we recommend that you run
the following programs as background jobs:
1. Programs for cash flow update:
!"#$!%% for rental agreements and !"#$&'% for general contracts
(ackground:
The cash flow for the rental agreements and the general contracts are generated in advance
for a certain period of time. #t contains the planned records for the periodically recurring
postings. ) parameter in $ustomi*ing determines how far in advance the cash flow is
generated +usually two years,. The cash flow must be regularly updated further into the future
so that the periodic postings can be carried out correctly after the period is over. -)P
recommends that you schedule the above.named programs si/ months prior to the debit
position.
0. The program to update of the status from the occupancy status of the rental unit:
!"#(1%%
(ackground:
The rental unit status is determined in two ways:
a, (y the occupancy type +occupancy history,, in which data indicating whether a
rental unit is2was2will be used by a third party, for own use or vacant is updated time.
dependently
b, (y the system status, which is not time.dependent and which represents the current
status of the object. The system status controls which business processes are allowed
or not allowed for a rental unit.
$ertain changes to rental agreements +such as notice given, changes to rental start and end
dates, conclusion of a new rental agreement, etc., affect the occupancy history of the rental
unit.
#f this change is already valid on the day the change is made, for e/ample the conclusion of a
rental agreement starting on the current date, the corresponding status +system status which
controls allowed business processes, of the rental unit is immediately updated.
#f the change is to take place in the future, the system schedules the system status update for
the corresponding date by updating the occupancy history for the future.
The system status can only be updated on the day that the change +such as rental start date for
new agreement, becomes valid. To do this, the report !"#(1%% reads the occupancy type
for the current date and uses this information to update the system status of the rental unit.
-)P therefore recommends that report !"#(1%% be scheduled daily sometime between
midnight and the beginning of your business day.
