We are working on a project wherein we pull data from an external application and act on this data. There might be scenarios where the data in external application might change and in-order to detect this discrepancies we have a process model that would compare both the data(Data we are working in Appian and external application data) and show all the discrepancies detected. Now we have a use case where in we need to generate a daily excel report of this discrepancies . And there might be around 1000-2000 cases that this process model need to run. Any help on how this can be achieved in Appian without performance issue is appreciated.

  • @shyamb we are on Appian 7.10 . Yes looping functions did help me to reduce the process running time. Now to run all the nodes in parallel I came up with new approach. I have created a table for this discrepancies and storing them once the comparison is done and any discrepancies found. Once we come out of the sub-process (all the cases are checked for discrepancies) I'm querying the DB and converting this to Excel. This way i could complete the whole process in 5 min when compared to Executing it one by one which took 2 hrs. Is this a good approach to follow? Any other suggestions are welcome.
