Batch Logs

As the overnight batch process runs, it kicks off a series of COBOL programs that perform various tasks. The Batch Log shows the name of each job, when it begand and when it ended, along with a brief comment. You can use the filter boxes at the top of the list to reduce the list.

The Created At filter supports comparison operators. If you enter ">12/1/2023" it will filter the list to logs created after 12/1/2023. If you enter "=12/1/2023" if will filter the list to log created on 12/1/2023. If you put in "12/1/2023 1 am" it will filter logs created at that time.

Batches are typically kicked off around 10pm, which can make reviewing the logs for a particular run tricky. For example, if you want to see just the logs from the 11/15 - 11/16 overnight, you would put in =11/15/2023 and then sort descending to see the logs from 10pm to 12pm on the 15th. Then you would put in =11/16/2023 and sort ascending to see the logs after 12pm on the 15th.
