Mass Appraisal Copy to Year System Batch Process

Overview

Run the Mass Appraisal Copy to Year process in to order to copy the Mass Appraisal tables and administrative parameter definitions from one year to any other year.

A typical use is to run this process once a year to copy the administrative information from the current fiscal year to the next. However, it could be run to copy the definitions from any year in which data exist to any other year. If parameters already exist, they are not overwritten.

Configuring the Copy to Year Batch Process

The Copy to Year is a System batch process. It is accessible in the Mass Appraisal menu in GNA. Like any other batch process, additional Copy to Year batch processes can be defined. These can be added to one or more Profiles and run from Govern.
To configure the batch process:

1. Launch GNA.
2. Select Editors > Batch Process Definition Editor.
3. Select 103-ma-bp-005 > Copy to Year.
4. Select the Transaction tab.

If you are using the System Copy to Year batch process, the Transaction Type and Transaction Mode cannot be modified.
These are set to the following:

• Sync: In synchronous batch processing, transactions are processed one after another in a sequence. If there are multiple steps in the process, one step is completed before the next begins.
• Break If One Transaction Failed: The process terminates when a transaction fails. All the transactions that were completed are cancelled. All the computations are returned to the starting point.

NOTE: If you are creating one or more additional Copy to Year batch processes to run in Govern, these fields are enabled. However, because the batch process is designed to run in this Transaction Type and Mode, the settings are switched to Synchronous mode and Break If One Transaction Failed when you run the process, regardless of the user input.

You can add an e-mail and set up scheduling for this batch process.
