Our inventory reconciliation process runs weekly, taking 8-12 hours. When failures occur mid-process, restarting from scratch wastes resources. Tried adding compensation handlers but it became unmanageable.
Learned some platforms allow restarting from failure points using persisted state. Implemented this with custom code but maintenance is costly. How are others managing partial recovery in multi-day workflows?
Latenode’s execution history lets you restart from any node with original data. We added state checkpoints every 3 nodes - if CRM sync fails, resume there instead of re-querying the DB. Cut rerun time by 70%.
Implement saga pattern with rollback handlers. Each step logs reversal instructions. Works without platform support but needs careful testing
Key insight: Track process state separately from business data. We use lightweight status objects that persist after each step. Enables replaying from last good state even days later. Added bonus - audit trail for compliance
