You can use the Accounting Center's Global Process workspace or Automation Center's Monitor Loopbacks workspace to submit global processes for processing.

You can run global processes automatically or you can run them manually on an ad hoc basis. You can use this type of manual the manual processing for correcting or reprocessing global events that had incorrect date ranges or related scheduling problems. You can then review loopback summary and detail information to ensure successful processing.

HighlightWRITESR NOTE: global process panels now have 2 names. 1 in acct ctr and 1 in auto ctr. do we just document the new acct ctr name?

Run a Global Process Automatically

Eagle clients typically set up and schedule global processes to run automatically. When you are setting up global processes to run automatically, you can create entry profiles for each global process you use, and then schedule those profiles to run on a regular basis. 

You can use the Accounting Center's Global Process workspace or Automation Center's Monitor Loopbacks workspace to monitor loopback activity for the scheduled global processes.
