Using the Drawing Optimizer ribbon tab > User Options command or using the command ACDWGCLEANERUSEROPTIONS will display a list of scan options that are set for the computer.  The initial list of cleaning options is retrieved from the database.  Once modified, the list is specific to the user until synchronized with the server or reinstalled.  The list of cleaning options will only be applied when cleaning with the DWG Cleaner Plug-In.  Drawing Optimizer Application will have its own cleaning settings.

Console Batch Operation Responsibilities

The batch application is responsible for two operations:

1. Collect any outstanding cleaning data files and send the cleaning data to the database.
• Cleaning data is generated with each automated, manual, or batch cleaning operation. That data is stored on the local machine’s file system in the following folder: C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\DwgCleanerApp\JSON\
• JSON data files contain information about each cleaned file, including file name, file path,the machine that processed the file, and the number of items cleaned for each cleaning option.
• The system stores cleaning data in these JSON formatted files so that the overhead of uploading the information to the database can be off-loaded to a background process, thereby keeping the burden on the AutoCAD or AutoCAD-based vertical at a minimum.
2. Check the database for server-based jobs that must be run on the current machine at the current data and time.
• The scheduled jobs are not necessarily automated unless the console application is run. In other words, only when the console application runs are scheduled jobs checked to see if one (or more) should be run on the current machine.
• If a scheduled job is found for the current computer that matches the current date/time requirements, the scheduled job will then be processed by the console application.

Desktop Batch Runner Application:

• This is an application that allows the user to configure batch cleanings and run them on demand. Approved admin users will have the added ability to schedule batch cleaning jobs to run on a specified server.
• The desktop Batch Runner Application and the AutoCAD application plugin support Autodesk Construction Cloud® stored drawings.  This tool will only work with drawings that can be accessed by Desktop Connector 16.1.1 or higher. 

Batch Runner Application:

• This is a schedulable console application that will perform the collection of cleaned file data and check for any batch jobs scheduled to be run on that machine.If any jobs are configured in the database to run, this console application will automatically run those batch jobs and store the results in the database.

Drawing Optimizer Database (DwgCleanerAppDB)

• At the heart of the entire application is a database layer responsible for keeping track of cleaned files' history, locally configured and scheduled server batch job definitions.Additionally, almost all settings associated with the application are stored in the database for centralized configuration capabilities.
