          Set Up Data Processing Engine Definition for Site Management

          Set Up Data Processing Engine Definition for Site Management

          Transform data that's available in different objects to a searchable object by setting up the Data Processing Engine for site and investigator search. The Data Processing Engine joins, calculates, and transforms the data across the required objects and aggregates them into your search capability.

          Required Editions

          Available in: Lightning Experience
          Available in: Enterprise and Unlimited Editions with Life Sciences Cloud or Health Cloud
          User Permissions Needed
          To set up the Data Processing Engine definition: Data Pipeline Base User
          Note
          Note The Data Processing Engine sources its data from healthcare providers and healthcare practitioner facilities that conduct research studies. If the number of records from healthcare practitioner facilities exceeds 1.5 million, the Data Processing Engine can encounter performance issues. Therefore, Salesforce recommends that you limit these records to 1.5 million or less. If you want to process more records, contact Salesforce Support.

          Before you set up the Data Processing Engine, enable the Data Pipeline.

          1. In the Site Management guided setup, under Set Up Site Investigator Search, click Go to Setup next to Set Up Data Processing Engine.
          2. In the list of Data Processing Engine definitions, click Populate Care Site Investigator Searchable Field.
          3. On the Site Investigator Searchable Field Data Processing Engine definition page, click the dropdown next to Save, and select Save As.
          4. Specify a name for the new data processing engine definition, and select Criteria-Based Search and Filter as the process type. If needed, enter a description.
          5. Save the data processing engine definition.
          6. To update the search conditions for any object in the definition, click the object and add or update the condition on the Configuration page that opens. Save the changes.
          7. Activate the data processing engine definition.
          8. To clean up the Care Site Investigator Searchable Field entity before you run the Data Processing Engine, create another data processing engine definition or use a flow.
          9. Schedule the data processing engine definition job to run based on your requirements.
