Abstract
Disclosed herein is a technique for providing status feedback on the execution of a database request. The technique involves receiving a database request that defines an operation to be performed on at least one data record stored in a database. The data record is updated in the database in accordance with the operation, and one or more tasks that are to be performed in connection to the operation are scheduled for execution. A first version of a receipt is generated and provided to the application, and includes, for each of the one or more tasks, a status field that indicates a progress of executing the task. The method further includes the steps of, in response to a change in the execution of any of the one or more tasks, updating the status fields to produce a second version of the receipt, which is then provided to the application.
