Launches the following jobs to refresh unit data in the system. This background job needs to be running
remove-outgates: Removes units that left the facility more than N days ago, and makes them invisible to the XPS clients.
The number of days (N) is determined by the value specified for the INVOUTGATE001 (OUTGATE_RETAIN_DAYS) (on page 1) configuration setting. The remove-outgates job:
Depends on the INVOUTGATE001 (on page 1), INVOUTGATE002 (OUTGATE_BATCH) (on page 1), and INVOUTGATE003 (OUTGATE_FREQ) (on page 1) configuration settings.
Removes only the units that departed by truck or rail. It does not remove a unit if the current position of a unit is on a vessel.
Deletes TBD units where the Pending Delete field is set as true. You can view this field in the TBD Units view.
refresh-units: Refreshes the impediment columns, Impediments:Rail, Impediments:Road, and Impediments:Vessel for all units, except for retired units, to ensure that the unit information is always accurate and up-to-date.
The refresh-units job depends on these configuration settings: INVREFRESH001 (RFRSH_FREQ) (on page 1), INVREFRESH002 (RFRSH_BATCH) (on page 1), INVREFRESH003 (RFRSH_STALE) (on page 1), INVREFRESH004 (RFRSH_UNIT_NUMBER) (on page 1), and INVREFRESH005 (RFRSH_THREAD_NUMBER) (on page 1).
The unit maintenance background jobs also set the XPS visibility of Retired and Departed units as false. This ensures that the Retired and Departed units are no longer visible in XPS.
