I know this is something a lot of people would love to see in AX, so I'm hoping someone has spent the time and energy to figure out a way to do this. If you have, I would love to get some tips, tricks, pointers, or website to show how to do this. Here is what I'm looking for:
Weekdays from 6am to 4pm every 10 minutes
Below is a screenshot I threw together as a concept. I have been able to change the code to show these fields but they don't function.
Thanks everyone for your responses. I will still need to create a customization at some point to get exactly what I want but in this specific instance I was able to solve my problem without customization. I put my batch job in a batch group that was assigned to an AOS that only runs the batch server during the times that I need. This wouldn't work for everyone and doesn't allow a lot of flexibility but it was a quick fix that seems to be working.
I have implemented similar functionality and referred to as Batch Time Fencing before.
Our goal was to be able to tell that between what time shall a batch job run, but it can be easily expanded with days.
1) You would need a table which holds the information that when can it run.
2) Change SysRecurrenceBuild class by adding an additional datasource and grid from code in the build method, and store the table values in a packed format in the update method
3) Change SysRecurrence class to take care of the reset method to empty your time fence table, or to include a default value
2) Change BatchRun class to skip picking up the next entry if the current time does not fall within the recurrence settings packed in your table for the batch task in the serverGetTask and serverGetOneTask methods
You would need to clearly understand how the framework works, to be able to implement it correctly.
Hi Ansel,
Your requirement includes,
1. Start time and end time (could be replaced by interval and count)
2. Recurring pattern in minute
3. Recurring on specific days
But AX batch job recurrence only provides the control on
1. Start time, count
2. Recurring pattern in minute or Recurring on specific days.
So as my understanding, AX cannot cover your requirement with the recurrence setting. You can either program the recurring pattern in minute or recurring on specific days in that job to realize the logic.
Yes, this is very do-able, but its a mod. We've done it for clients before.
Yes. I'm just looking to have the job run every weekday starting at 6am, every 10 minutes till 4pm.
Right now I have the job running every 10 minutes, but there are other tasks that users need to complete and they don't want to stop the batch job and restart it every time they need to do a task.
