Configuring access to restart the copy process for bill batches

You can configure security settings to allow members of a security group to restart the copy process for a bill batch that is in progress.

About this task

Authorized users can restart the process to copy bill lines to a bill batch in a background mode with the Reset Copy in Progress option on the Select Action menu in the Customer Billing application.

You enable user access to this action by associating its signature option with one or more security groups. Then, you associate a conditional expression with the signature option. The conditional expression to be associated with the signature option is configured for you.

Users who select this action are warned to not restart a copy in progress unless the process failed, such as with a server failure. Restarting the copy process deletes all history for the copy that was in progress.

Procedure

  1. In the Security Groups (SP) application, select the security group to configure.
  2. On the Applications tab, in the applications list, select Customer Billing (SP). In the Options for Customer Billing (SP) section, select the Reset Bill Batch signature option.
  3. In the Details section, grant access to this signature option and associate the PLUSPBBRESET condition with the signature option.
  4. Save the record. Log off from the system to complete the configuration.

What to do next

Test that the Reset Copy in Progress action is only available to authorized users. Test as a user who does not have access to the action and as a user who has access.
