# SQL-032: Retrieve all active non-indexed batches

This statement aggregates all `IMGSYS` rows where `IDXFL = 'N'` (not indexed) and `DELCD = ' '` (not deleted), grouping by batch ID and scan date, and excluding batches named `AUTOIMPORT` or `FAXIMPORT`. It uses the Oracle hint `/*+ INDEX(imgsys IMGSYS_IDXFL_IDX1) */` to encourage index usage. Executed by `clsIndexBatchCollection.BeforeRetrieve`.
