Batch process groups organize batch processes into logical groups. For example, financial batch processes can be grouped together so that users do not have to search the entire list of batch processes to find a set of financial batch processes to execute. Batch processes are grouped together simply by adding the batch processes to the same group and assigning a name for this batch process group. Batch process groups provide flexibility for an organization to manage and maintain their list of batch processes; batch processes can be grouped according to the needs of the organization.
