Time periods mark a time range within a time-based HD store and are grouped in time period store. A time-based HD stoe can contain multiple time period stores, each of which contains multiple time periods.

Similar to DAT files, time periods can be processed by ibaDatCoordinator when finished.

You can find out how to configure jobs in ibaDatCoordinator in Configuring a job. A description of the specific configuration options for the time period job can be found in Time period job – Settings.
