User Permissions Needed
To run definitions on-demand:

Run Data Processing Engine Definitions On Demand

In orgs that have Financial Services with the On Demand Record Rollup process type or Revenue Management with the Revenue Transaction Management process type, you don't need this user permission to run on demand definitions.

Before you begin, make sure that the definition is active and the processing type is set to On-Demand Processing.

  1. Open the active on-demand definition in the definition builder.
  2. Click Run Definition.
    Definitions run synchronously and complete in near real time, or they're queued to run as an asynchronous batch process and can be monitored in Monitor Workflow Services.
  3. To check the run status, from Setup, find and select Monitor Workflow Services.
    Note
    Note Only on-demand definitions that run asynchronously can be monitored in Monitor Workflow Services.
