Batch Procedure Configuration Dimension (Profit Center Model)

Return to Profit Center Model Overview.

Elements in the Batch Procedure Configuration dimension contain the definition of batch procedures to be run by the end user. The dimension is made up of multiple levels:

Level	Description
All Batch Procedures	Root element that encloses all types of procedures.
All ... Procedures	Parent element that encloses all procedures of the same type.
Standard ... Procedure	Executable procedure accessible in the report: See Article Profit Center Allocation Configuration. Please note creating custom procedures is not supported by the user interface.
Step	Base element of the dimension. This is the step that is executed as a part of a particular procedure. Elements on this level can be added, modified or removed using the Profit Center Allocation Configuration.

The Batch Procedure Configuration elements contain the following attributes:
