About EOD processing

End-of-day (EOD) processing is a routine that can perform these tasks:

  • Maintain the age of data that is stored in the TWL files
  • Calculate inventory class by velocity
  • Schedule cycle counts
  • Clean up system log files
  • Create the item history files

EOD processing is controlled by Report Scheduler in the system, in conjunction with the TWL integration.

All output files are sent to the log directory specified in Report Scheduler-Queue Setup. These files are prefixed with twl, and, when applicable, the file name includes the warehouse number and the date. The primary output for the EOD run is the standard report scheduler log file. The automated execution of TWL EOD processes through the Report Scheduler backs up and cleans log files. The TWL temp directory EOD files are removed after 7 days

Valid output files for TWL EOD

These files are valid:

  • Standard Report Scheduler output

    twleod.log

  • Used for the ABC stratification by TWL EOD

    twlabc.log

  • File for the data removed through File Retention in TWL EOD

    twl<tablename>_del.log.<cono>.<whse>

  • Summary transaction reports that are created by TWL EOD

    twld_trans_<YYMMDD>.rpt.<cono>.<whse>

    twlr_trans_<YYMMDD>.rpt.<cono>.<whse>

If the TWL EOD output file already exists from a previous EOD run, the file is renamed .old. The Report Scheduler also executes RDCLEAN, which removes these TWL temp directory EOD files after 7 days. To use or analyze these files, you must copy them to another location.
