When a data lifecycle request is sent to the system, a work order is created to execute the requested task. A work order represents a specific data lifecycle process, such as a scheduled dataset expiration, which includes its current status and other related details.

This guide covers how to view and manage existing work orders in the Adobe Experience Platform UI.

List and filter existing work orders

When you first access the Data Lifecycle workspace in the UI, a list of existing work orders is shown along with their basic details.

  • Failed: The job encountered an error and could not be completed.
  • Processing: The request has started and is currently processing.

Filter based on the when the work order was made.

Status

Filter based on the current status of the work order:

  • Cancelled: The job has been cancelled as part of a manual user request.
Date created
Filter based on the when the work order was made.
Expiration date
Filter dataset expiration requests based on the scheduled deletion date for the dataset in question.
Date updated
