Recommendation: Check that Object Count = 0 

Before you use Delete SIF Temp Table and Send SIF Objects to send the fresh data over you should check the SIF Transmission Report > Object Counts to confirm that they show as 0 (zero). This will be your confirmation that the DOE completed the request to clear out the objects.
