Reprocess Change

The Reprocess Change form is used to define which transaction changes will trigger the reprocessing of an export. It is assigned to employees as a Change Comparison Policy.

When a column is enabled in this policy, a change to the column’s value will cause the old transaction to be marked as Cancelled After Processing (Z) or Cancelled Before Processing (X); this status change will prevent the old transaction from being reprocessed. The new transaction’s status will be Ready for processing (R) and the transaction will therefore be included in the next export.

For example, in a Labor Export, the Column Name duration is Required-Enabled. If a transaction’s duration changes, the transaction will be reprocessed. The old transaction will be cancelled and the new transaction will be marked as ready. The old transaction will have “X” status (Cancelled Before Processing) if it was not yet processed, or “C” (Complete) or “Z” (Cancelled After Processing) if it was already processed. The new transaction’s status will be Ready for processing (R).

In the same Labor Export, the Column Name classification is Disabled. If a transaction’s classification changes, this change will not trigger the need for reprocessing. The old transaction will have “D” status (Cancelled And Any Further Processing Complete) and the new transaction will have “C” (Complete) status.

This policy can be assigned to a single Employee/Person via the Employee Setting form, to an Employee Group with type POLICY_GROUP or FACILITY via the Employee Group Setting form, or to all users via the System Settings form. An Employee setting overrides an Employee Group setting, which overrides a System Setting. See Settings Precedence for more details.

When a column is enabled in this policy, a change to the column’s value will cause the old transaction to be marked as Cancelled After Processing (Z) or Cancelled Before Processing (X); this status change will prevent the old transaction from being reprocessed. The new transaction’s status will be Ready for processing (R) and the transaction will therefore be included in the next export.

For example, in a Labor Export, the Column Name duration is Required-Enabled. If a transaction’s duration changes, the transaction will be reprocessed. The old transaction will be cancelled and the new transaction will be marked as ready. The old transaction will have “X” status (Cancelled Before Processing) if it was not yet processed, or “C” (Complete) or “Z” (Cancelled After Processing) if it was already processed. The new transaction’s status will be Ready for processing (R).

In the same Labor Export, the Column Name classification is Disabled. If a transaction’s classification changes, this change will not trigger the need for reprocessing. The old transaction will have “D” status (Cancelled And Any Further Processing Complete) and the new transaction will have “C” (Complete) status.
