Business Central Job Queue stops on error and doesn't restart

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by dstove 35

Hi all

I have a job queue process that uploads EDI Sales Orders. For some reason it gets deadlocks on the the sales line, and the job stops with an error status. I need this to re-try, but it doesn't

How do I get the job queue to work the same way it did in earlier versions, and retry until the retry count is reached?

I have the same question (0)

    There is a Maximum No. of Attempts to Run on the job queue.

    True, but BC 2019 ignores this. The process in question gets deadlocked and terminates. Once it terminates it gets an 'Error' status and doesn't run until you manually go in and re-set the status to 'Ready'. I appreciate that there are times when you don't want something to re-try, in which case you would probably set your maximum run attempts to 1, but when you DO want something to re-try, it should re-set the status to 'Ready' until the specified number of retries is exceeded.

    Hi Dominic,

    This is nit a solution but a workaround.

    You can create a job which runs every 5 mins and in that job you can write the code in TryFunction to set the status of the job to Ready.

    Although this is not full proof method but works well most of the times.

    You can even create a Microsoft Support Case to assist you with this.
