kurthatlevik: Batch Jobs; Take control of the executions

[Blog bot]

Источник: https://kurthatlevik.com/2020/01/20/...he-executions/
==============

Dynamics 365 can be automated quite a lot with the use of batch jobs. With batch jobs, your Dynamics 365 solution becomes “alive”, and we can set up the system to automate many manually processes. Lets say to have the following “vanilla process”, and wants to automate as many steps as possible.






This document covers the Batch jobs needed to be setup for this process to be as automated as possible. I wanted to put a structured system on all the batch jobs that is typically used in a production system. But this also generates a lot of data, that you don’t normally need. It is therefore common to create both functional batch jobs that processes and executes functionality, and also execute cleanup jobs that removes irrelevant data.


Batch job Naming conventions


To make it simpler to understand the batch jobs a simple structure of naming the batch jobs have been created. The first character is just “A”, to make sure that the sorting of the batch jobs is in the best possible way, and that the batch jobs can be sorted according to name. The next is a 3 digit number and at the last there is a then a description that explains the batch job.


IDDescription

A001-A099System administration batch jobs

A100-A199Data management batch jobs

A200-A299General ledger batch jobs

A400-A499Sales and marketing batch jobs

A500-A599Retail batch jobs

A600-A699Inventory management batch jobs

A700-A799Warehouse management batch jobs


Reach of these ranges are then set up as batch groups, and you can better control what AOS servers is executing what type of batch jobs:





In this blog post more than 87 batch jobs have been specified, and that keeps the Dynamics 365 system updated and as automatic as possible

System administration batch jobs


These are general system batch jobs that can perform cleanups and other general executions.


IDName, path and recurrence

Description and recurrence

A001A001 Notification clean-up
</p>System administration > Periodic tasks > Notification clean up


DailyThis is used to periodically delete records from tables EventInbox and EventInboxData. Recommendation would also be if you don’t use Alert functionality to disable Alert from Batch job.

A002A002 Batch job history clean-up


System administration > Periodic tasks > Batch job history clean-up


DailyThe regular version of batch job history clean-up allows you to quickly clean all history entries older than a specified timeframe (in days). Any entry that was created prior to – will be deleted from the BatchJobHistory table, as well as from linked tables with related records (BatchHistory and BatchConstraintsHistory). This form has improved performance optimization because it doesn’t have to execute any filtering.


A003A003 Batch job history clean-up (custom).
System administration > Periodic tasks > Batch job history clean-up (custom)


ManuallyThe custom batch job clean-up form should be used only when specific entries need to be deleted. This form allows you to clean up selected types of batch job history records, based on criteria such as status, job description, company, or user. Other criteria can be added using the Filter button.

A004A004 Daily Diagnostics rule validation

A602A602 Inventory settlements clean up


Inventory management > Periodic tasks > Clean up > Inventory settlements cleanup


Manually/Yearly


 

It is used to group closed inventory transactions or delete canceled inventory settlements. Cleaning up closed or deleted inventory settlements can help free system resources.


Do not group or delete inventory settlements too close to the current date or fiscal year, because part of the transaction information for the settlements is lost.


Closed inventory transactions cannot be changed after they have been grouped, because the transaction information for the settlements is lost.


Canceled inventory settlements cannot be reconciled with finance transactions if canceled inventory settlements are deleted.

A603A603 Inventory dimensions cleanup


Inventory management > Periodic tasks > Clean up > Inventory dimensions cleanup


Manually/Yearly

This is used to maintain the InventDim table. To maintain the table, delete unused inventory dimension combination records that are not referenced by any transaction or master data. The records are deleted regardless of whether the transaction is open or closed.


Inventory dimension combination record that is still referenced cannot be deleted because when an InventDim record is deleted, related transactions cannot be reopened.

A604A604 Dimension inconsistency cleanup


Inventory management > Periodic tasks > Clean up > Dimension inconsistency cleanup


Manually/Yearly

This is used to resolve dimension inconsistencies on inventory transactions that have been financially updated and closed. Inconsistencies might be introduced when the multisite functionality was activated during or before the upgrade process. Use this batch job only to clean up the transactions that were closed before the multisite functionality was activated. Do not use this batch job periodically.

A605A605 On-hand entries cleanup


Inventory management > Periodic tasks > Clean up > On-hand entries cleanup


Monthly

This is used to delete closed and unused entries for on-hand inventory that is assigned to one or more tracking dimensions. Closed transactions contain the value of zero for all quantities and cost values, and are marked as closed. Deleting these transactions can improve the performance of queries for on-hand inventory. Transactions will not be deleted for on-hand inventory that is not assigned to tracking dimensions.

A606A606 Warehouse management on-hand entries cleanup


Inventory management > Periodic tasks > Clean up > Warehouse management on-hand entries cleanup


Weekly

Deletes records in the InventSum and WHSInventReserve tables. These tables are used to store on-hand information for items enabled for warehouse management processing (WHS items). Cleaning up these records can lead to significant improvements of the on-hand calculations.

A607A607 On-hand entries aggregation by financial dimensions


Inventory management > Periodic tasks > Clean up > On-hand entries aggregation by financial dimensions


Weekly

Tool to aggregate InventSum rows with zero quantities.


This is basically extending the previously mentioned cleanup tool by also cleaning up records which have field Closed set to True!


The reason why this is needed is basically because in certain scenarios, you might have no more quantities in InventSum for a certain combination of inventory dimensions, but there is still a value. In some cases, these values will disappear, but current design does allow values to remain from time to time.


If you for example use Batch numbers, each batch number (and the combined site, warehouse, etc.) creates a new record in InventSum. When the batch number is sold, you will see quantity fields are set to 0. In most cases, the Financial/Physical value field is also set to 0, but in Standard cost revaluation or other scenarios, the value field may show some amount still. This is valid, and is the way Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations handles the costs on Financial inventory level, e.g. site level.


Inventory value is determined in Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations by records in InventSum, and in some cases Inventory transactions (InventTrans) when reporting inventory values in the past. In the above scenario, this means that when you run inventory value reports, Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations looks (initially) at InventSum and aggregates all records to Site level, and reports the value for the item per site. The data from the individual records on Batch number level are never used. The tool therefore goes through all InventSum records, finds the ones where there is no more quantity (No open quantities field is True). There is no reason to keep these records, so Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations finds the record in InventSum for the same item which has the same Site, copies the values from the Batch number level to the Site level, and deletes the record. When you now run inventory value reports, Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations still finds the same correct values. This reduced number of InventSum records significantly in some cases, and can have a positive impact on performance of any function which queries this table.
