Maintain a Routing Request {GROU-2}


The user can use this option to manually create/start an entry in the routing system.  Once the information in block 1 has been entered and <COMMIT>ed, the data in blocks 2 and 3 are copied from the default request information as created in {GROU-1} and <COMMIT>ed.

The ITS defined routing processes will be created/started by the programs automatically into this option.  The main purpose of this option will be to query the routing process stages.

A Routing Request can only be deleted after the Route has completed all the steps.

Fields in the option:

Block 1:  Routing Request Maintenance

This is the main entry of a request in the routing system.  For every record in this block, multiple records may exist in blocks 2 and 3.

Description
Routing Request Type A4 Enter the routing entry type.  A <LoV> may be used to select a valid type as defined in {GROU-1}, TAB - Entry Types.
System ID A1 Enter system ID.  A <LoV> may be used to select a valid ID code linked to the request type in {GROU-1}, TAB - Entry Types.
Request Entry Number  N12  The number of new requests will be created on <COMMIT>ed.
Activating Entity A1 (E)mail or (U)ser
Responsible Entity A1 (E)mail, (U)ser or (B)atch
Request Start Date DD-MON-YYYY  A date in the future will still start the process immediately but will have an impact on any timeouts set in {GROU-1}, TAB - User Routing Sequences.
If a route is kicked off between the start and end times {GCS-1} as setup with SOD 'WH' being set to 'Y' {GCS2-11} for the start and end times to display, this route will kick off as setup on  {GROU-1}. If a route is kicked off outside of the start and end times, the sequence set up on {GROU-1} will only kick off between those times, therefore the due date will only be calculated once the start time has begun.

Processing
Rules
 
  Functionality exists for an automated email notification to be generated, when the responsible person for the Routing Number / Sequence Number is updated, where Routing Type System ID = ‘P’, advising the new responsible person of each application they are now responsible to action.  The Responsible person may be updated per Routing Type {GROU-2} or in Bulk {GROU-9}.  Routing Type ‘KERP’ is used for the generation of this notification.
