Design Overview

This background job is composed of two-step processing. It will have a threading assignment and a business logic processing.

Thread assignment program will filter eligible records from inventory adjustment table based on its purge criteria from system parameter settings. The Inventory Adjustment Months parameter will determine records to kept before they are purged whole adjustment date has elapsed from a pre-determined number of months. These records are chunked and Thread ID is assigned for each. They will be stored temporarily in a staging table.

The Business logic program will process all records from the staging table. Using bulk processing, this program will delete the records from inventory adjustment table. It will free up and clean the staging table afterwards. There is a STOP ON NEXT feature in bulk processing (through a loop) where Administrators can stop this batch with a flip of this indicator.
