Hi @Menna,

You must add a info message in your batch job code.

and then you can go to the batch job history page

finally you'll find the logs

Hi @Menna,

I think you have issue in your code in batch job class.

I suggest you debug with batch.exe

You need two variables of int type and for every update or insert you need to append for these 2 variables and show that as an info.

To create a log for the batch job detailing the number of records inserted and updated in the serviceOrderLine table, a smart and organic approach involves integrating logging functionality within the batch job's codebase. This can be achieved by implementing a robust logging system that captures relevant information and provides insightful feedback to stakeholders. Begin by initializing counters to track the number of records inserted and updated. As the batch job executes, increment these counters accordingly for each insertion and update operation. Additionally, incorporate error handling mechanisms to gracefully manage any unexpected issues that may arise during the process, ensuring thorough logging of errors alongside affected records. At the completion of the batch job, generate a comprehensive log entry that includes the total counts of inserted and updated records, along with pertinent metadata such as timestamps for reference. Format the log output in a clear and concise manner, optimizing readability for stakeholders. Prior to deployment, rigorously test the logging functionality to validate its accuracy and reliability, thereby ensuring that the log effectively communicates the outcomes of the batch job execution to stakeholders in a meaningful manner.
