Rod Licensing - Fulfilment Processor
The fulfilment-job package handles the delivery of fulfilment requests to the fulfilment provider via FTP.
Fulfilment is where a licence card and an accompanying letter are posted to an angler who has purchased a licence.
This job will query the configured Microsoft Dynamics instance for fulfilment requests which have not yet been associated with a fulfilment request file. Each outstanding fulfilment request is staged into AWS S3.
The initial export phase writes fulfilment requests into 'part files'. This is due to limitations in the number of requests that can be sent to Microsoft Dynamics in a batch transaction. Currently that limit is 1000 requests and for each batch of 1000 one request in required to create/update the fulfilment file entity, leaving 999 requests available to associate the fulfilment requests which were written to the part file with the fulfilment file entity. This means that each part file may contain up to 999 fulfilment request records. Multiple part files may be written for each fulfilment file depending on the configured FULFILMENT_FILE_SIZE.
After the export phase has completed, the delivery phase retrieves all of the part files from AWS S3 and aggregates these into the final fulfilment files to be delivered. The aggregated files and corresponding sha256 hashes are written to both AWS S3 and to the FTP server of the fulfilment provider.
