Often a batch update process will be used as part of a ProFiler routine – for example, when using Sales Order Batch Update you may import an ASCII file into a Datafile Database, process that database to validate and add extra items, call the batch update process, and then maybe continuing on to print an acknowledgement, delivery note or invoice. Often these types of updates are called as part of a Q (or automatic) menu.

There are some special features built into ProFiler within the Premier system to enable the call of the batch update options from within Q-menu’s.
