RE: Suggestions wanted on reducing time to assemble month-end invoices

The most recent case, we had a *SCS spooled file, a *USERASCII spooled file and a PDF for each order. We just sent them to the OUTQ with the three for a given order back-to-back. Originally, the *SCS, *USERASCII and PDF's all came from separate programs, so we had to change the process to create all the documents for a single order together.

We do not use separator pages. The documents themselves are distinct enough to server as separators.


In the OUTQ, the spooled files look like this:
*SCS-Order#123
*USERASCII-Order#123
*PDF-Order#123
*SCS-Order#456
*USERASCII-Order#456
*PDF-Order#456
*SCS-Order#789
*USERASCII-Order#789
*PDF-Order#789

Hi Justin

A little more detail, maybe - do you mean each statement and associated invoices are one document?

And did you include am easily-recognizable separator?

The invoice run precedes the statement run - and there are other processes in between - I don't know yet if those have any bearing on the statement run.

Thanks
