Debug mode enables you to keep track of records that have been processed by send services so that you can review how the records were processed by the services. You configure each send service to run in debug mode independently of other send services.

When a service is running in debug mode, the WM_TRACKCHANGES table retains records after they are processed, marks their PROCESSED_FLAG field to Y, and adds a value to the DATE_PROCESSED field. This enables you to review records that have been processed by the service rather than having the service simply delete the processed records.

You configure a send service to use debug mode by setting the debugMode parameter in the specifyDefaultSettings MAP step to TRUE. By default, debugMode is set to FALSE.
