Using job queues to schedule tasks
Continia Banking uses the Business Central Job queue functionality to optimize business processes and automate repetitive tasks. Through the task scheduler, you can view, create, and modify jobs that execute specific codeunits or reports in the background. You can schedule these jobs to run either once or on a recurring basis, which provides flexibility in task management. For general information on how to work with job queues, refer to the Microsoft documentation.
Key considerations before working with job queues
Before you start working with job queues, the following must be taken into account:
- Delegated users do not have permission to start job queues. Please make sure this action is carried out by a user who has the required permissions.
- Only adjust the recurrence interval as needed, and avoid making other manual configurations to job queues. Changes beyond the recurrence interval can affect the functionality of the jobs or tasks triggered by the job queue.
To work with the Continia Banking job queues
There are several places in the system in which you can create job queues.
To see an overview of all existing jobs:
- Search (
) for and select Job Queue Entries.
If you accidentally delete a job queue or want to reset the configuration, you can easily re-enable the job queues by following these steps:
- Search (
) for and select Continia Banking Setup.
- On the action bar, select Actions > Troubleshooting
- On the Troubleshooting page, select Actions > Re-enable Job Queues.
Vigtigt
Delegated users lack the necessary permissions to start job queues. Please ensure the task is performed by a user with full administrative rights.
The Update Setup job queue
On the Continia Banking Setup page, the Update Method field determines whether bank and bank system updates occur automatically. If set to Automatic, the system creates the job queue entry CTS-CB Update Setup (71553647) to manage updates.
When new setup files are available, this job queue generates additional entries to ensure that all banking components are kept current:
- CTS-CB Upgrade BankSystem (71553646) – updates each bank system that is not up to date.
- CTS-CB Upgrade Bank (71553708) – updates each bank that is not up to date.
- CTS-PE Import Setup (71553905) – updates the Banking Export Setup if it is not current.
- CTS-PI Import Setup (71554210) – updates the Banking Import Setup if it is not current.
- CTS-CBPP Import Setup (72282089) – updates the PSP Setup if it is not current.
These job queue entries run according to the time specified in the Update Time field, ensuring that all setups are maintained automatically without manual intervention.
