What is a confirmation process?
With confirmations, a company can prove that users were informed about published ARIS content or related changes, for example, changes in guidelines or processes, and that the employees confirmed to adhere to these. Confirmations can be used, for example, for audits, corporate governance systems, or a quality management system.
A confirmation process scheduler automatically generates the confirmation process and the confirmations at the specified start date. It can be defined that the process is generated only once or that the process is generated recurrently, for example, quarterly or annually.
Confirmation processes and confirmations are automatically generated at the point in time specified using automated server tasks. The execution time of the server tasks is specified using the parameters in 
Administration > General > System management > System configuration > Administration > Server task schedules. As in large companies often several thousand confirmations must be generated, what can be very time and resource consuming, the server task is usually executed at night.
