Deploying the latest Peoplesoft image (HCM92002, Peopletools 8.53.06), and you’ll see a lot of reports not posted:
Well, fine, they’re probably not that important, but it can be fixed quite easily especially since they are not posted for one single reason, the process scheduler was started before the PIA during the deployment.
More generally, if you have a bunch of reports which have a non-posted content for a problem you fixed, you may want to avoid to go in every single process just to click “re-send Content” as below:
Going to all and every process is tedious, so let’s try to do it with back-end statements.
First, what this “Re-send Content” is doing ? Set the AppServer in trace mode (Trace SQL=7), and we’ll see all what we need to know:

Actually 3 tables are involved: PSPRCSRQST, PSPRCSQUE and PS_CDM_LIST. We just have to update them properly as indicated in the trace file above to make the process scheduler a try to repost.
From the given below screenshot, 9 reports are not posted:
And from the back-end, the same:
SQL> select PRCSINSTANCE from PSPRCSQUE where DISTSTATUS=4 order by 1 desc;
PRCSINSTANCE
------------
2561
2560
2559
2558
2557
2556
2550
2549
2548
9 rows selected.
SQL> select PRCSINSTANCE from PS_CDM_LIST where DISTSTATUS NOT in ('5', '9');
PRCSINSTANCE
------------
2548
2550
2549
2556
2557
2558
2559
2560
2561
9 rows selected.
SQL> select PRCSINSTANCE from PS_CDM_LIST where DISTSTATUS NOT in ('5', '9') order by 1 desc;
PRCSINSTANCE
------------
2561
2560
2559
2558
2557
2556
2550
2549
2548
9 rows selected.
SQL>
Then update these tables:
SQL> UPDATE PSPRCSRQST SET DISTSTATUS = 7 where DISTSTATUS=4 ;
9 rows updated.
SQL> UPDATE PSPRCSQUE SET DISTSTATUS = 7 WHERE DISTSTATUS=4 ;
9 rows updated.
SQL> UPDATE PS_CDM_LIST SET DISTSTATUS = '8',TRANSFERINSTANCE = 0 WHERE DISTSTATUS NOT in ('5', '9');
9 rows updated.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL>
And finally, from the front-end, all are now “posted”:
And the reports are all reachable:
Of course, it won’t solve a posting problem if there is, it just tries to repost. But in such a case, useful to keep it in mind.
