It's recommended that an SDC mailrun close event (DFWorks >>Production Workflow/Scanning Data Collector) and or the FORCE CLOSED Command via Production Workflow View be used to closed a Mailrun from the PWF View. There are instances in which the SDC and FORCE CLOSED command are not practical. In such a case manually removing a Mailruns via the Oracle Database by updating the Mailrun State may be in order.
Tools Needed:
Oracle Database tool: examples: Toad for Oracle, SQL Tools, Oracle SQL Developer and Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
Updating the Mailrun State via the Oracle Database
Log in to Oracle database from any Oracle client (those queries cannot be executed via DFWorks SQL Query Editor, direct DB connection is required). Can be SQLDeveloper or SQLPlus (which is available on DFWorks server). Use standard DFWorks credentials:
user: dfworks
password: ********
Now Execute following query
Find the desired Mailrun (This find the Mailrun in question)SELECT * FROM mailrun WHERE mailrunid = 'MAILRUNIDHERE'
Manual Change the State Mailrun (This updates the Mailrun to a Closed State)UPDATE mailrun SET stateidfk=5 WHERE mailrunid = 'MAILRUNIDHERE'
Now Commit the Update.
