It is possible to organize printing missions so that each day’s printing management (that is, the printing workflow) is the same. The simplest method is to specify DAYS=ALL in the Basic Scheduling parameters of all printing missions. Once a day, when the New Day procedure calls program CTDPRQ, all printing missions scheduled for the next 24 hours are placed in the Active Missions file.
This printing organization does not maximize the capabilities of Control‑D. You can organize the printing order in different ways for different types of days (for example, weekdays, weekends, end of the month, holidays).
Using Control‑D, it is possible to define several copies of the same printing mission. Each copy is an independent definition of the printing mission and can have different scheduling criteria, different runtime criteria, different bundling instructions, different printing configurations, and so on. For example, the (form) STD printing mission does not start later than 05:00 on every workday, does not start later than 04:00 at the end of the month, and is not scheduled for holidays.
Since there is no limit to the number of printing missions that can be defined, the user can organize the printing process to optimally suit every production day of the year.
