Context:

The number of requests in the data target (request list) influences the processing time for various actions on requests. The overview List of Critical Data Targets enables you to monitor the number of requests contained in data targets of loading processes. This overview allows you to run housekeeping activities, which improve the performance for any actions carried out on requests.

When the request list is reduced in the data target, the entries are moved from the tables mentioned above and then deleted from the tables. The reduced request list decreases the time that status management requires to process the following processes:

• Processing of data transfer processes (DTPs) or InfoPackages
  • Generating a delta DTP request (list of source requests and target requests is evaluated)
  • Closing a delta DTP request: (water levels in the source and in the target are evaluated)

Intended people:

I'ts technical process that should be used by all developers. 

Program technical details:

The task in Solvay should be applied only over master data objects. 

Parameters: 

The weekly job for deletion will keep the last 2 years of information or the last 720 requests available in the list of master data under observation.

Output

Once the job finished, the number of records in the master data will decrease significantly according to the parameter as screenshot below for 0PROFTC_CTR object.
