Export Scheduler

The Export Scheduler module is configured during installation. The Export Scheduler is used to schedule a job that sends requirement documents (Material Release or Ship Schedule) to a supplier or a group of suppliers. The schedule job runs at the specified date and time of the day. The requirement documents are sent to a supplier or all the suppliers in the supplier group. The format of the document is determined based on the document format configured in the Define Document field on the Communications page.

During the installation process, the port number and host name for the scheduler process must be specified. By default, the scheduler process runs every 30 minutes. This value can be configured using the runFrequency property in the scheduler.properties file.
