The base package provides a periodic monitoring batch process for each maintenance object that supports soft state transition. The process periodically executes the monitoring algorithms associated with the current state of an entity, excluding states explicitly referencing a deferred monitoring batch process.
A deferred monitoring process works in the same way but only considers entities whose current state references this particular batch control as their monitor process. Deferred monitoring is only needed for certain states based on business requirements.
Your business rules will dictate the execution frequency of each monitoring process and the order in which they should be scheduled.
