Design Overview
This background job is composed of two steps processing. It will have a threading assignment and a business logic processing.
Thread assignment program will filter eligible records from future cost table for purging. 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 future-cost data from future-cost 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.
Note:
This process also supports archiving, if desired. For more information on how to configure this process for archiving, see the Merchandising Implementation Guide section titled "Background Configuration Process".
