Close business day request

Transaction Server can be configured to send the close business day request to Amount Keying. When Amount Keying receives the close request, it suspends the work. When a business day reaches the closed state, Transaction Server sends a close business day request message to the WebSphere® MQ queue on which Amount Keying is configured to listen. If Transaction Server is not configured to send the close business day request to Amount Keying, operators can continue to balance work for the closed business day. All work for the business day must be balanced before the business day can be ended.

Sample scheduler XML

Configure a BusinessDayStatusChange event in the Transaction Server to send a CLOSE_BUSINESS_DAY_REQUEST message to Amount Keying. For more information about configuring the Transaction Server scheduler, see Events and communication with external applications.

The example scheduler XML shows the BusinessDayStatusChange event.
