Or

You can open the period and then generate the tasks or vice versa but tasks will not start to run until the period is open.

5. Where the period is already generated, you will be presented with summary information about the current running status of all tasks for that specific period.

Using filters

It is possible to generate only certain tasks based on the available filters.

Filtering can be based on Processes, companies, task types, such as SAP reconciliation or manual workflow, and individual tasks. These can be used in any combination. 

Regenerating periods

Press Regenerate and Aico will generate any new tasks that have been added or activated since the period tasks were first generated.
