Understanding How to Generate Job and Billing Data to View Later

You can specify job and billing data selection in the Work with Project Advisor Console program (P51X0200) and generate the results to view later or you can run the Submit Project Advisor View program (R51X0300) to generate job and billing data that the system saves so that you can view it later.

When you run the Submit Project Advisor View program, the system creates a record in the Project Advisor Results Header table (F51X30) that includes information about the generated view, such as the user who created it, the date it was generated, and a view ID that the system assigns from the next numbering scheme for line 1 of system 51X. The system also saves the job and billing data to the Project Advisor Console Worktable (F51X10).

You can run the Submit Project Advisor View program as a scheduled job, from a menu option, or from the Batch Versions program (P98305W). You use Data Selection to specify the jobs from the Business Unit Master table (F0006) for which you generate records, and set processing options to specify additional processing criteria. After you run the process, you can access the saved records using the Work with Project Advisor Console View program (P51X0310).

The Submit Project Advisor View program does not generate a PDF report. Instead, you can view the Completion Status field in the Work with Project Advisor Console View program to determine whether the process completed successfully or in error. If the process ended in error, you can view information about the errors in the Work Center.
