Manual creation of a missing EOD overnight mail***Only to be run by 2LSB staff***
ATTENTION: all dates on this screen are expressed in Belgian Local Time (ie. the timestamps you see when checking your own mailbox).
Therefore, if you have to fill in times, always do this in Belgian Local Time. During the sending process these times will be AUTOMATICALLY converted to the timezone of the customer.
Not sure? Send a testmail to yourself! UNCHECK ALL checkboxes in step 4, CHECK the last box and fill in your email address.
Next press the SEND MAIL button. (You can repeat this process as many times as you want, just beware that you uncheck all other destinees)
1. Complete the 3 dates below. Search inspiration for the correct timestamps in the table on the right column.
We have tried to fill in automatically the values, but beware that they can be INCOMPLETE or INCORRECT.
Be careful when filling in manually the timestamps -> there is no syntactic validation!
Start of overnight:
Ready2Use:
End of overnight:
Balance date:
2. If you want to send a special message to the customer, then specify it below. It will be printed in red, preceeded by the word "Attention". If no extra message is needed, then leave the field blank.:
Extra text:
3. Find below the list of extracts that should be added to this mail. Please select the correct files in the corresponding listbox. We have prefilled them with the most recent attachement that was found, but beware that this might be WRONG! If a file is not present, then select "--make a selection--". :
Expected extracts...
4. The email will be send to the recipients listed below with an enabled checkmark.
By default 2LSB@objectway.com has been added. You can also add an extra email address:
This mail will be send to...
5. If you are sure to have filled in all above steps, then generate the EOD email by pressing on the SEND button. If everything went fine you will receive a copy if you are a member of 2LSB.

Inject a dummy Overnight End Block (100)***Only to be run by 2LSB staff***
What is this about? Sometimes you need to rerun a single overnight step, instead of the whole overnight. The problem is then that the overnight dashboard keeps
waiting for the End Block (100) in order to flag it as finished. This might later generate an Overtime alert.
By injecting a dummy 100 block, the dashboard thinks that the overnight has ended in the normal way.
