RELATED IDEAS

COC Data Extract should send deleted records to the FTP to avoid orphaned records in target data warehouse.

When we remove and add new data thru API or internal code, the deleted records get removed and not propagated to the target system consuming the COC Data extract data published from OMS. This causes additional records to be retained in the target system as compared to the data present in OMS.

Example scenario.

1. We use updateFutureInventory api to process Planned PO messages.

2. Everyday in the morning, we do a full refresh of Planned PO Inventory process which removes the existing supply record from OMS and creates a new one.

3. Old supply records for an item-WH-duedate-supplyreference combination is removed and a new record is created for each message processed.

4. When the records are deleted, there is no retention of some sort or propagation to the target system

5. This causes the ETL data store to have all the older records that are removed from OMS thru full Refresh/delta processes.Overtime, it builds up a lot of records ('n' full refresh records each day) and only the latest day's records being the correct one.

We have multiple scenarios where the same scenario is faced , but the above one is a straight forward one where this happens every day.

    We also have the same challenge at Carter’s as well, would be great to see IBM provide a solution for this issue.
