| # Automatic sales schedule processing In LN, the processing of sales schedules can be automated. Automatic sales schedule processing enables you to indicate for the schedule type which activities must be automatically executed and which activities require manual intervention. The execution of the schedule procedure activities can start when a sales release is processed into a sales schedule or a sales schedule is created. All automatic activities are executed successively until an activity is defined as non-automatic. After you manually executed the non-automatic activity, LN executes the next automatic activity, and so on. Therefore, for each schedule type, you can indicate the activities that you want to automate and the activities that need your interference. Note For referenced as well as non-referenced schedules, the Automaticallly Process Sales Schedule Releases check box in the Sold-to Business Partners (tccom4110s000) session determines whether or not sales releases are automatically converted to sales schedules with the Created status. The Use Contracts for Schedules check box in the Sales Contract Parameters (tdsls0100s300) session determines the session from which LN retrieves the automatic processing data.
