Restarting a flow where we want a subset that originally tracked red to re-process while ignoring others that originally tracked green.

SCBN Customers send batch outbound files for multiple Partners and some times due to Tranlsation, Configuration or System Outages some of the transactions impacted and failed in the batch and once the issue resolved and we or Customer want to restart them then in current scenario it will restart the complete batch and that cause duplicates to some of Partners where they have already received the data.


In order to avoid that, if we have the flexibility of restarting the failed docs and ignoring the already processed one's would be much helpful.


Also, it would be good to have independence from one doc to other for restarting the data which only effect the specific Partner.


For Example:

Ceva is the Customer who sends batch IDOC which contain 100 docs for 100 Partners to SCBN to split and deliver the tranlsated EDI doc to multiple Partners and due to some reason 50 docs posted to one few Partners failed due to System issues/bugs then we can't restart them from Inflight as it will restart the complete batch.


To restart the only few specific docs then again we have to reach the Customers and they have submit it again from starting.

How will this idea be used?

Restarting a flow where we want a subset that originally tracked red to re-process while ignoring others that originally tracked green will be helpful for avoiding the duplication data delivery with restart from Inflight
