This Cron Job filters the edits by comparing a branch version with the default version and sends a message to the external system.
The Process Branch Version is a technology based on the Esri functionality to recognize edits in the geodatabase.
"Versioning is a framework where multiple editors can work simultaneously on a single feature class in a highly isolated fashion, without creating copies of the data.
It tracks changes made to a database. This brings the ability to test new designs internally without affecting published data, the capability to monitor data evolution over time, and support project workflows implemented across many organizations.
Versioning offers the type of flexible data management framework that is required to meet availability and processing demands. "
To Branch or Not to Branch, Esri
When creating or editing a branch version derived from the default version, all changes are stored exclusively in that branch. These edits remain private and are not visible to others.. But when you finish, you can inform VertiGIS Integrator that now this branch version can be processed.
The VertiGIS Integrator, using the Process Branch Version Cron Job, picks up the branch version and compares it to the default version and sees all the differences between them. After the comparison, the VertiGIS Integrator can extract all the relevant features from the branch version and send them to SAP and post back the branch version to the default one, now becoming the main version.
You can learn more about the process branch version from the Overview of versioning and the What is branch versioning? articles.
