Batch Job Multi threading D365FO AX7


Multi-threaded batch job



Normally, when we schedule our "Run Base Batch" class as a batch job, it will create a single task. Which will be responsible to execute the complete process in a single thread.

But, As you know like AX-2009 and AX-2012. In D365FO We can add multiple AOS servers in a single batch group and they can process multiple tasks simultaneously. 

In this demo, I will show, How to create a multi-threading Batch job.
following are the steps
Step-1 Create a table for demo purposes in our demo we keep the table name is SLD_DemoTable.





Step-2 Create a class with the name SLD_DemoBusinessLogic and write your business logic in this class.
In the demo, I write only to insert records in a table and show you guys how it works.






Reference Code

class SLD_DemoBusinessLogic
{

    public void processInit(VendTable _vend)
    {
        SLD_DemoTable   SLDDemoTable;

        SLDDemoTable.clear();
        SLDDemoTable.VendName=_vend.name();
        SLDDemoTable.VendAccount=_vend.AccountNum;
        SLDDemoTable.insert();

    }

}

Step-3 Create a batch job class with the name SLD_DemoMultiThreadTask.
This class we will use as Task in the main batch job.




Step-4 In this class We Create a getter setter to store vend table buffer;
Step-5 Create an object of our business logic class and execute the method



Reference Code

public class SLD_DemoMultiThreadTask extends RunBaseBatch
{
  
  VendTable ventTableBuffer;
    #DEFINE.CurrentVersion(1)
    #LOCALMACRO.CurrentList
        ventTableBuffer
    #ENDMACRO

        public ClassDescription caption()
       
        {
              ClassDescription ret;
          
              ret = 'Update Multiple Thread task';
          
              return ret;
          
        }

    container pack()
    {
        return [#CurrentVersion,#CurrentList];
    }

    public boolean unpack(container _packedClass)
    {
        int version = conPeek(_packedClass,1);
   
        switch (version)
        {
            case #CurrentVersion:
                [version,#CurrentList] = _packedClass;
                break;
            default:
                return false;
        }
        return true;
    }

    public void pramVendBuffer(VendTable _vend)
    {
        ventTableBuffer=_vend;
    }

    public void run()
    {
        try
        {
            SLD_DemoBusinessLogic       SLDDemoBusinessLogic=new SLD_DemoBusinessLogic();

            SLDDemoBusinessLogic.processInit(ventTableBuffer);
     
        }
        catch
        {
            info(strFmt("%1",xSession::xppCallStack()));
        }
    }

}

Step-6 Now Create the main batch job which will respond to create multiple tasks in the single batch job.




Reference Code

class SLD_DemoMultiThreadBatch extends RunBaseBatch
{
    BatchHeader                             batchHeader;

    VendTable        vendTable;
 

    public static void main(Args args)
    {
        SLD_DemoMultiThreadBatch  objMultiThread = new SLD_DemoMultiThreadBatch();

        if (objMultiThread.prompt())
        {
            objMultiThread.run();
        }
    }

    void run()
    {
        SLD_DemoMultiThreadTask                 SLDDemoMultiThreadTask;
       

        try
        {
          
            while select firstonly10 vendTable
            {
                if(this.isInBatch())
                {
                    if(!batchHeader)
                    {
                        batchHeader = BatchHeader::construct(this.parmCurrentBatch().BatchJobId);
                    }
                    batchHeader.parmCaption("Multiple thread batch jobs");
                    SLDDemoMultiThreadTask =  new SLD_DemoMultiThreadTask();
                    SLDDemoMultiThreadTask.pramVendBuffer(vendTable.data());
                    // add tasks to the batch header
                    batchHeader.addRuntimeTask(SLDDemoMultiThreadTask, this.parmCurrentBatch().RecId);
                }

                else
                {

                    // execute your code here when not running in batch
                }
            }
            if(batchHeader)
            {
                // save the batchheader with added tasks
                batchHeader.save();
            }

        }
        catch
        {
            info(strFmt("%1",xSession::xppCallStack()));
        }
    }

    public container pack()

    {

        return conNull();

    }

    public boolean unpack(container packedClass)

    {

        return true;

    }

}


Step-7 Now create an Action menu item and reference our batch job SLD_DemoMultiThreadBatch .




Step-8 Build and sync database and module and run the job.
Step-9 Navigate to your batch job page and find your job and check Job Task.






Step-10  before execution of the batch job check the demo table. 
you can check the below screenshot currently table is empty.


After execution of the job table filled with vendors' names.
