Generating the ABC900 Reports for Finalization

Once you have finished making all the necessary corrections, you need to create a final report. This is the report that will be sent to ABC.

While the “Non-Finalized” ABC Publisher Statement can be run as many times as you want, you can only run the “Finalized” ABC Publisher Statement one time per statement period.

To generate an ABC report for finalization:

1.    From the toolbar, click Reporting > Job Submission.

2.    From the Job Submission search screen, perform a search for and select the ABC900 application.
The Job Submission screen for the ABC900 report displays.

3.    In the User Setups section, highlight the ABC900_B job code.

4.    From the Start job on drop-down, select the date you want the job to start on.

5.    The Job Priority defaults to “100.”
Change this if necessary.

6.    In the Job Parameters section, click the Publication link or manually enter the publication parameter.

7.    Select the Statement Date from the drop-down.

8.    Enter the Audited Issue you want audited.

9.    Enter the Statement Period in the text box. This defaults to “6.”

10.  Check the Finalized Flag.

11.  Enter the price of a one-year subscription in the 1 Year Basic Price text box.

12.  Enter the price of a two-year subscription in the 2 Year Basic Price text box.

13.  Enter the price of a single issue/volume in the subscription in the Single Copy Basic Price text box.

14.  Click the Output Files tab.
The Crystal Report File Names for each paragraph of the ABC report displays.

15.  Check the checkbox next to the ABC audit paragraph you want to Print Immediately.

16.  Enter the amount of Copies of the selected paragraph you want to print.

17.  From the TRS Tasks task category, click the appropriate link:

·            Upload input file – Uploads a file from your hard drive into the system (you should not use this for ABC reporting).

·            Run this report now – Immediately runs the report regardless of the Start Job On date selected.

·            Submit to TRS server – Submits this job to the server where it will be run on the Start Job On date.

·            Submit on hold – Submits this job to the server, but will not be run until the hold is released.

·            Schedule this request – Opens the Job Scheduling screen. From this screen you can schedule when you want the report to be run (this is not used for ABC reporting).

18.  Verify the report outputs and go back and make corrections to the data as necessary.
