When collana shield is installed, three job queue items are created for checking all existing customers/vendors/contacts.
Executing a task queue item manually
Sometimes it is necessary to execute a task queue item manually, for example for testing purposes or for a one-time action.
- Type Job Queue Entries in the search bar and select the appropriate option. Alternatively, you can find the jobs in the collana shield Settings.
- Select the job to run.
- Click Run once (foreground) on the command bar.
- By confirming the execution, the job is now executed once.
Configuring the automatic execution of jobs
The automatic execution of Job Queue Entries ensures that recurring checks are executed as scheduled.
- Type Job Queue Entries in the search bar and select the appropriate option.
- Select the job for which automatic execution is to be set up.
- Click on Edit.
- Set the following fields:
- Next execution time: Define when the job should be executed for the first time.
- Recurrence options: Select how often the job should be executed (e.g. daily, weekly).
- Status: Make sure that the status is set to Ready.
Setting up filters for a Job Queue Entry
Filters make it possible to restrict the data that a job processes.
- Open collana shield Settings
- In the Job Queue Entries, select the job for which filters are to be set
- Click on Job Queue Entry List and Filter Job.
- Set the required filters on the filter pageExample: If only customers from a specific country are to be processed, the filter can be set as follows:
Country/Region Code = DE. - Save changes.
Multiple values per filter can be set using the either/or operator ( | ).
To exclude certain values from the job, the unequal operator ( <> ) can be used.
Filters can be removed again via the menu item Clear filter job in the Job Queue Entry List menu.
