Automated Realignment for DP

I have a process chain that loads my Shipping History and Inventory monthly. One of the steps of this process is to realign my products from old to new (and obsoleted). This works fine but each time I run the process chain the records in the realignment table are set the status to processed ("X").

Is there a way to not have these records maked as processed (remain status " ") or a way to reset the status in another process chain step back to " ". I would like them to be applied the next month automatically when the load runs again without someone having to remember to go in and set them back tr "ready".

Any thoughts or comments on how to do this or alternate ways would be great! many thanks!
