WorkDay Tutorial-Selection criteria and scheduling parameters

There are three parts to scheduling an integration. The user that schedules the integration background process must do the following:

1.       Determine the Run Frequency: 

·       Run Now 

·       Run Once in the Future 

·       Daily Recurrence 

·       Weekly Recurrence 

·       Monthly Recurrence


2.     Enter the Selection Criteria: The integration selection criteria are specified on the Integration Criteria tab on the Schedule an Integration task. For each selection criteria field, you can either enter the value or have the system determine the value at run time. For recurring integrations, when you specify the integration criteria value explicitly in the scheduled process request, that value will be used each time the integration is launched. If you select to determine the value at run time, the selection criteria field value will be calculated each time the integration is launched at the time the integration is launched. Unless you desire unique filenames, typically only date fields are determined at run time, since they are the only fields that vary over time for a recurring process.


3.       Enter the Scheduling Parameters: Based on the chosen Run Frequency. The user must also enter the Recurrence Type, Start Time, Time Zone and the Range of Recurrence. For the

Range of Recurrence, the Start Date cannot be before the current moment (taking into account the Start Time), and the End Date cannot be beyond Dec 31st of the next year.

 

·       The Schedule tab will vary, based on the chosen Run Frequency.
