8. A Run Control ID is an identifier that, when paired with your User ID, uniquely identifies the process you are running. The Run Control ID defines parameters that are used when a process is run. This ensures that when a process runs in the background, the system does not prompt you for additional values.

   Step 8

13. Use the Group Unit field to specify the business unit for which you are posting a transfer worksheet.

     

    In this example, retain the default value.

    Step 13

14. Use the High Balance Basis Date list to enter the date used when calculating the customer history ID of HI_BAL_AMT. By default, the Receivables Update process uses the run date.

    In this example, retain the default date.
