HPU writes tables locally. If HPU could write direct to S3 locations, it would eliminate the need to move files after creation.

If HPU had a feature to write data directly to S3 buckets, it would make the process for moving data to cloud faster & easier. While initial unloads may be constrained by available bandwidth, the process of writing to S3 immediately starts the...

Providing a new HPU parameter so that we can chose the number of BSAM buffers for SORTIN.

When unloading and sorting data due to ORDER BY option, HPU reads data from tablespace and write it to DFSORT SORTIN dataset via QSAM with BUFNO=60, that is a default. In the environment where zHPF is enabled, DFSORT has used BSAM for SORTIN since...

Add Date Range to Completed Simulation Result Page

When using the simulation data range of 'server time absolute', you are unable to see what the date range selected was after the simulation completes. You are only able to see the record numbers that were simulated which isn't that useful at times...

Healing of Transactional Records - Data Maintenance / Data Quality

Safer Payments has the capability of healing/fixing masterdata through processing (and optionally curtailing) batch feeds. However, for transactional records there doesn't seem to be a viable approach. This would be required to provide accurate da...

Improve logging/tracability options of (HTTP) Case actions

Currently when executing case actions the investigator gets no information (UI) that an error might have occured delivering the message. Also the logging of errors within a case audit trail seems only to work for HTTP error codes which are stored ...

Index query definition does not check if the index attribute has storage enabled leading to query which will never return results

If an index attribute is not stored the index query will never return any data. This can be cause confusion to the user as to why it is not returning data because it is not stored it will never return any result. If a check can be done to exclude ...

Read and Write partitions in parallel with only one OUTDDN dataset

Recently, during some tests, we observed that using a single dataset for each part in the OUTDDN with &PART drastically improves the elapsed time of the HPU job (with benefits for data availability, reduced contention probability, etc.). Howev...

In Case Management, allow visibility of fired rules for only the mandator level they fired in.

Currently, in a Case all rules that fired will be shown in that case, even if another case class was raised by the same or other rules firing at the same time. Therefore, if there are sensitive rules from 1 department firing, these would be visibl...

Fixed column List for a Select * based on a timestamp

It can be very useful if we could input a timestamp in the Unload cards which results in any column that were added to the table post the timestamp to be excluded from the column list to be unloaded. This will give a nice mechanism so that a SELEC...
