Batch Scheduler

EICS provides a batch scheduler interface that allows customers to enable/disable batch jobs and schedule batches with specific intervals.

Please note this is part of EICS itself.

For more details, see the information on batches in the Oracle Retail Enterprise Inventory Cloud Service Administration Guide Batches Chapter- Job Scheduler.

Batch Activity

Admin users and system operator can view batch job activities via EICS Batch Job Admin Screen.

See Oracle Retail Enterprise Inventory Cloud Service Administration Guide Batch Job Admin Chapter- Job Admin screen.

Cleanup Batches

The scheduled batch jobs that perform cleanup of old data have been moved to systems operations. The scheduling and execution of these batch jobs is necessary for the functioning of the application. Each of these jobs will be scheduled to run by default on a cycle, often daily. As systems operations, these will not appear on the batch screen unless the user is an Oracle system operations account.

However, most of these cleanup batch jobs have a retention policy that is configurable in the systems configuration. The system configuration is available to standard customer accounts where they can set those configurations within specified range.
