End Publ Run
Ending a publishing run is a necessary step in the publishing procedure. It purges messages, updates AAM history and rolls the draws to seven days in the future, updates churn history, and creates a report of the activity. Depending on Business Rules, pending draw, subscription demographics and, if you have InsertPlus, the Preprint Zone Summary, may also be updated during this process.
When you purge messages, all carrier and subscriber messages retained during the processing period will be deleted if they have printed on bundle tops and have an end date earlier than the process date. We recommend that you do not select this option until you have verified that all distribution reports are printed and saved to disk.
Note: Before using this option, be sure that other users will not be adding or modifying routes, or using the Route ID Change utility, while it is processing.
To end the publishing run:
Select End Publ Run from the Publishing menu to display the End Publishing Run window.
Choose the product(s) whose publishing run you wish to end by selecting the appropriate process checkbox(es).
Click Continue to end the publishing run. Circulation process the activities mentioned above and produce a report that displays any routes where the DistribPoint AAM Town and/or DistribPoint Zip percentages do not equal 100 (see Distribution Point in the Setup Manual for more information).
Note:
If End Publishing Run does not complete (e.g., someone inadvertently pressed Ctrl-c), select Utilities | Reset End Publ Run in the character interface to reset the run. See Reset End Publ Run for details.
