CPS submit proposed schedules to supervisor for review. The CPS Supervisor and the Computer Operations Managers put together the plan for the next month. During a regular work day, the Computer Operations Managers monitor the machine load, communications activity, and batch run requests against the schedule. Changes can be made based upon need and priority. 11.10.2 Testing and Weekend Usually, regular system development and program maintenance testing is run concurrently with AIS production.
Employees can initiate runs, build test files, and print results, etc.
When testing is needed on the weekend, submit a request to the Director of Operations or Computer Operations Managers. Tell them what will be needed, such as day, time, computer operator, post processing operator, etc. The farther in advance the request is made, the better the chance of getting the time wanted. You can check the Operation Calendar to see if anything has already been scheduled for the time needed. Printed output should be held to a minimum.
