Daily Processing and New Day Processing

For most INCONTROL products, there are a number of tasks that are performed each day. Typical daily tasks are

• updating the active file or memory environment with definitions for the new day
• checking files for integrity and validity
• producing general reports that describe the actions taken during the previous day
• housekeeping and cleaning unneeded information from product and IOA files

These tasks are performed automatically using the New Day procedure for each product. The New Day procedure is a program that automates daily maintenance tasks and automatically schedules processing definitions for each day.

For a description of the New Day procedures and User Daily jobs for a specific INCONTROL product, see the relevant chapter (for example, Control-M).
