What are Award Expiration Run Definitions?

Award Expiration Run Definitions are a set of business rules which are used by Award Expiration Runs to evaluate the validity of Awards provided to Reward participants Rewards Participants and to debit the participants' Wallets whenever the awarded amount expires before being spent.All Award Expiration Runs that were performed based on each Award Expiration Run Definition can be viewed within the reward run definition.

Award Expiration Runs can be applied only through an effective Award expiration Run Definition and the result is the creation of Award Expiration Transactions

Creating, Editing & Deleting

unspent awarded amounts expire.

Run Definitions must be submitted once created and are executed once or on a recurring basis, depending on the defined Scheduling Settings. Each time a Definition is executed, a Process Run is logged, and once the Run is completed, the information is available in the /wiki/spaces/WIP/pages/10008606.
The user has the option to delete the specific run provided it has not been executed (still in 'Draft' state).
A Definition must be in an 'Effective' Life Cycle State to be submitted.  The state can be changed between 'Effective' and 'Not Effective' using a dedicated action.

  • Navigate to Award Expiration Run Definitions and explore existing records via the Summary page
  • Click on the link (name or number) of the record of your interest to access the Data Entry page and see more detail, or submit the Definition. 

  • Use the Actions Menu to create a NEW Definition, modify (EDIT), or DELETE an existing one.  

  • Use BACK to return to the Summary page and CANCEL to revert any unwanted changes made to the Definition.
