Posting – Related Setup

The following Location settings work together to determine the date/time when the location can post the current period:

  • Time Zone – The application will use this setting to adjust the system date/time from the server to reflect the local current date/time.
  • The adjusted current date/time will be compared to the selected "Earliest Post Date/Time based on" setting to determine when the location can post.
  • Earliest Post Date/Time based on – This setting determines whether posting is allowed to occur after the 'End of Business Day' (default) or after 'Closing Time'.
  • Closing Time – If this setting is selected, the application will refer to the "Hours of Operation" to determine when the location can post.
  • End of Business Day – If this setting is selected, the application will refer to the "Business Day Begins at" setting to determine when the location can post.
  • Hours of Operation – This setting determines whether posting is allowed after the 'Closing Time (Cleanup)' or 'Closing Time', but before the end of the Business Day.
  • Closing Time (Cleanup)
  • If this setting is > '00:00', the location will be allowed to post after this time on the current date.
  • If this setting = '00:00', the location will refer to the "Closing Time" setting.
  • Closing Time (Cleanup)
  • If this setting is > '00:00', the location will be allowed to post after this time on the current date.
  • If this setting = '00:00', the location will refer to the "Business Day Begins at" setting.
  • Business Day begins at – This setting determines whether posting is allowed just after midnight at the end of the current date (into the next day) or after a specified time on the next day.
  • If this setting = '00:00', the location will be allowed to post just after midnight.
  • If this setting is > '00:00', the location will be allowed to post after this time on the next day.
