Submitting Requests

The Requests page allows you to create requests within a selected project. The criteria that you can enter vary for each request type. However, the basic steps are the same for all requests.  Once you select a request type, the Request Composer page shows a common header panel that identifies the request, a common run mode section to schedule a request or have it run immediately, a common footer panel that contains the DataMarts where the request will be routed, and a content panel in the middle that displays controls used to enter criteria settings for the particular request type.

Procedure

 

Follow these basic steps to submit a request:

  1. Click the “New” button in the Request panel.

  2. Choose a request model and type from the drop down menu. 
    Request Type Dialog
  3. On the Request Composer page, enter the metadata for the request. This must include a unique name and a brief description of the request and its purpose. If a project is not specified, do so by clicking on the hyperlink in the Project field and selecting from a list of projects that you have permission to submit requests within. All metadata is distributed to the DataMarts with the request and should be detailed enough to allow data partners to identify the request and determine how to respond.

  4. Select the run mode for the requests. Requests may be submitted immediately or set to run later according to a schedule. /wiki/spaces/DPM/pages/491703.

  6. In the DataMart Routing panel, use the checkboxes to select the DataMarts to submit the request to. Only those DataMarts that you have the rights to submit to will be displayed.
