SCHEDULING A SILKROAD INTEGRATION

If you prefer to run the integration at a later time, you can use the Job Management utilities in Costpoint Administration to schedule a job for the Costpoint – SilkRoad Integration process.

You must create and save a Parameter ID in the Transfer SilkRoad Data screen before using this procedure.

To create schedule a job for the integration, complete the following steps:
