Setting Current Time Periods

You can schedule a job that automatically sets the current time period field on Regions, Practices, Groups, Resources and Projects. If your organization uses the Work Queue Manager, use that to schedule a job that sets the current time period field on Regions, Practices, Groups, Resources and Projects. See "Work Queue Manager Settings".
