regularly running create index definition and perform initial ingest to OSCS since redwood ORC SSP

Summary:

In 2 different areas now of the system, for Self Service Procurement Requisitions, and also in Recruitment Requisitions, we are being advised to run the ESS job ‘create index definition and perform initial ingest to OSCS’ with different parameters in order to maintain the indexes around requisitions and allow the system to operate.

I am concerned, as all the documentation around this process state that this job need run once at implementation, and it is not required on an ongoing basis. Indeed it has rarely outside of quarterly updates since we went live in 2024.

It would appear that we are now being asked to run this job on a regular basis in order to shore up the indexing since the introduction of Redwood in both Self Service Procurement and ORC
