RE: re Rebuilding Indexes in Oracle Apps -- was RE: RE: Separate

John
What about gl_interface table indexes? I think indexes on all *interface( tables must be rebuild on a regular interval...I was building indexes on gl_interfaces and fnd_request* tables on monthly basis.

Hemant,

This applies on 11i only. I would rebuild all indexes supporting the WF_ITEM_ACTIVITY_STATUSES and WF_ATTRIBUTE_VALUES tables. I have been working on some AOL table(space) problems in the background and noticed that in 11i by default, we are not be purging _all_ the WF data that we should be purging. I believe the current Purge routine purges activity rows whose persistence has expired and are marked 'TEMPORARY' and ignores those that are COMPLETE (see below). My contention is that it should be deleting old rows that are COMPLETEd... (Fyi, this is 12+ million rows...) Notes 141853.1, 144806.1, 132254.1, 148705.1, 148678.1 may help.

You could check this using the following SQLs

select activity_status, count(*)
from applsys.wf_item_activity_statuses
group by activity_status;

select item_type,activity_status,count(*) from
applsys.wf_item_activity_statuses where activity_status='COMPLETE' group by item_type,activity_status;

Once the 'correct' purge is complete, the 'holey' indexes will need to be rebuilt and the WF_ tables copied/truncated/recopied to shrink the HWM to reasonable levels.

Let me know what your install shows up.

John,

I rebuild the FND_CONCURRENT_REQUESTS indexes every four months [and the table itself, occassionally].
This Saturday I will also be rebuilding some ALR indexes. Which WorkFlow Indexes do you rebuild ?
