Re: IM batches left open/suspended

[DaleGindlesperger@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Not an automated solution, but we basically reprimand people that leave
batches open.  After they get in trouble, they started closing and posting
their batches.  But that solution doesn't work for everyone.....

I personally think aborting backups on "Closed" or "Suspended" batches is
dumb on MAPICS' part.  "Active" I understand, people are keying (and there
should be a "kick 'em off and suspend their batch" option in backups), but
it's been that way a loooong time.  Very aggravating.  Every time we hire a
new 3rd shift person that keys I/M tickets, we have aborted backups until
we get them straightened out.

Good morning - does anyone have a good solution re: MAPICS backup problems
due primarily to IM batches left open/suspended/active? - we are at XA 5.5
& plan on being on 6.0 sometime next year - thanks, Tim Bertnick w/
