To get the latest entitlements of the control points that await the entitlements import, you can also manually create an entitlement import job. You can manually import the entitlements of the control points in any state.

The manual and automatic entitlements import work as follows:

Manual entitlement import

To manually import the entitlements of the control points, you create an entitlements import job.

You can run the entitlements import job immediately or schedule the job to run when the approval period of the control points is about to begin.

See Importing the entitlements manually.

Automatic entitlement import

To automatically import the entitlements of the control points, you configure the automatic entitlements import job.

The automatic entitlement import job runs daily at a specified time. The job imports entitlements for all the control points that display the status as Entitlements Import Required.
