Create a Batch Job in D365 AX and Create new Batch Job Alert

Hi

Create a Batch Job in D365 AX and Create new Batch Job Alert


Step 1: Create new class which extends RunBaseBatch to run as Batch Task in Batch Job.

public class TestBatchClass extends RunBaseBatch
{
    public void run()
    {
           
        //    //Code to execute
                  info(strFmt("Hello from Batch Demo Class .run at %1",DateTimeUtil ::toStr(          DateTimeUtil ::utcNow())
           ));
    }

    public container pack()
    {
        return conNull();
    }

    public boolean unpack(container packedClass)
    {
        return true;
    }

    public ClassDescription caption()
    {
        return 'Fetch Data';
    }

}

Step 2:  Assign Batch Server for Batch Group

Go to System Admin --> Batch Group

Step 3: Create a Batch Job

Batch Status
Withhold – batch will not be picked up for execution, batches need to be in this status to edit
Waiting – batch will be picked up for execution at next recurrance schedule
Executing – batch is currently being executed
Ended – batch processes successfully

Tabs in Batch Job
View Tasks – shows the individual tasks of the batch
Batch Job History – shows status of previous executions of the batch
Recurrence – set up the schedule to execute the batch
Alerts – set up alerts for different events of the batch
Change Status – changes the status of the batch

Go to System Administration -> Batch Jobs --> New

Click on View Tasks and Create a new Task and assign batch job which is created in Step 1 TestBatchClass 

Change Status and set Recurrence if its required

And Check Histoy in Batch Job History

Finally make sure Batch Management Service is running on Azure VM
