You can set up a Unix shell script which can be kicked off by cron at the time you specify. In the shell script, you should use the CONSUB utility to submit the AutoInvoice master program (RAXMTR) to the concurrent manager. I believe that the master program will then submit the other odds and ends that AutoInvoice uses.

CONCSUB can be a bit tricky to set up because it takes a vast bunch of arguments. If you type CONCSUB at the shell prompt, you get back a list of the arguments required including an example of its use. Pretty much everything before the CONCURRENT keyword is mandatory.

The procedure for AutoLockbox is comparable.

Note - CONCSUB must be typed upper-case !

Hope this helps.
