Most of the time you will leave Division, Department and Job set to All. However, if you know that you made changes to a KBI that only applies to a certain area of the job tree, select the specific Division, Department, and/or Job that was affected. The re-generation time is greatly reduced.

- Do one of the following:
- If you want to recalculate all periods, select Re-Calculate All Periods.
