• Yes

    At a previous job I had numerous jobs running against an ERP system database to ensure the integrity of the transactions processed. For example, compare the general ledger account balances for inventory to the extended cost of the actual inventory held in the system.

    Typically I have jobs for:

    - daily balancing reports

    - system interfaces

    - internal system integrity

    - error conditions within the data

    I find this especially useful for data errors that appear sporadically. It is much easier to track down the cause of this type of error when you get timely notification when the error occurs.
