pse.APICommonsService.iBatchCallback

global interface iBatchCallback

You can use the iBatchCallback global interface to hook into PSA billing processes such as:
• Clear
• Generate
• Invoice
• Release
• Remove
These interface hooks are called during PSA billing processes and each method is called even when a process is executed inline rather than as a batch. To use these hooks, you must write classes that implement the iBatchCallback interface. Once you have written a class to handle a billing process, you must instruct PSA to use it. To do this, add a value containing the name of your class to the appropriate billing Interface configuration option in the Billing configuration group. For information about configuring PSA to use a custom billing class, see the PSA Help.

getJobType

BatchJobType getJobType()

This method must be implemented by the creator of any class that implements the iBatchCallback interface. This indicates the PSA billing process that the class is to intends to implement. These PSA billing processes all confirm that the implemented type matches their identity:
• Clear
• Generate
• Invoice
• Recalc
• Release
• Remove

Return Value

This method returns an APICommonsService.BatchJobType object.
