Help - UK Mechanical Royalty Runs

The "UK Mechanicals Royalty Run" page lists mechanical royalty runs that have been completed for MCPS reporting. This historical listing of runs includes the ability to access details for each run from this page.

High level information concerning each run is provided within this view:

# of Statements

- The number of statements that are available in a specific royalty run. By selecting the number in this column the user is taken to the list of statements that are included in the royalty run.

Payor

- The name of the payor for whom the statements where generated. Note that royalty runs are Payor specific. All statements contained in a royalty run are associated with the same Payor.

Reporting Period

- Notes the quarter and year for the associated royalty run. This is informational only and is used to help differentiate royalty runs.

Run Date

- The date that the royalty run was generated.

Status

- The status of the royalty run. The following states can be seen for a royalty run:

• Completed – The royalty run successfully completed with no errors.
  • A completed run can be deleted if corrections to data have been made and another run is required. When deleted, the run will be removed from the system.
  • A completed run can be invalidated. The run will remain in the system, but cannot be committed. Note: Changes to UK mechanical related data within the system can only be made if there are no "Completed" runs.
  • A completed run can be committed.
• Committed – The royalty run was committed. All associated calculations and data are confirmed and set within the application. Note: committed royalty runs cannot be deleted.
• Closed – If a subsequent royalty run is committed, the previous run is automatically closed. Closed is the final state for a royalty run.
• Error – Notes that the associated royalty run has an error and statements could not be fully generated.
• Invalid – Notes that the associated royalty run has been invalidated. Statements can be viewed when a royalty run is in this state, but the run can only be deleted and is no longer available for being committed as data has changed since it was initially created.
