To review the list of print jobs:

    Job Reference
    The job reference number of the data source object that is linked to the print request.

    The type of document that is printed. Types of documents are, for example, Waybill, EDI Waybill, Packing Slip, or VDA 4902 barcode transport label.
    Subtype
    The subtype of the document that is printed. Subtypes are, for example, Small or Large when you print VDA 4902 barcode transport labels.
    Job ID
    The job ID of the print job that is automatically created by the print server.
    Status
    The status shows the progress of the print job. The print server sends back a status message of the print job to the functional area that created the print request.
    • Ready to Print: A new print job that has not been sent to the print server is ready to be printed.
    • Printing: The print server is currently printing the documents. The print job is not yet successfully completed.
    • Printed: The documents are successfully printed.
    • Queued - The print job is sent to the print queue, but the print server has not started printing. If the print server does not start printing within the designated timeout period, the print job is automatically set to Error status.
    • Error: The documents are not printed, because an error happened. If the error is caused by a timeout while in Printing, the print job may automatically change to processed in the future. If the error is caused by a timeout while in Queued status, the print job may have been purged from the queue and not processed. This can happen when the print server is unavailable for an extended period of time.
