      <Paragraph>In LN,
		the processing of <Link href="/baanerp/td/glossary/glossary#SalesSchedu_td" role="glossary">sales schedules</Link> can be automated.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>Automatic sales schedule processing enables you to indicate for
		the schedule type which activities must be automatically executed and which
		activities require manual intervention.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>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.</Paragraph>
