Schedule Key Format Conversions

Deltek recommends that you not change key formats during processing. You can schedule key format conversions to run via the process server, during off hours.

When you schedule a key format conversion to run at a later time, changes made to the table after that scheduling but before the process runs are included in the run. For example, on Monday afternoon you schedule a project key format conversion to run on Monday night. All projects entered between Monday afternoon and Monday night are included in the run.

To schedule a key format conversion run:

  1. On a key format form, click Schedule.
  2. On the Schedule dialog box, select a processing queue, enter a description, and specify the date and time that you want the process to run for the records that you specify in the grid.
  3. Click OK.
