My Jobs

Jobs are also referred to as batch jobs. Jobs are specific units of work that are performed in the background. Two types of programs use batch jobs: batch updates and reports.

These programs differ from those that are used by online application forms. For online forms, the data is processed immediately. Batch jobs are in a job queue and are processed when resources are available in the system.

Reports differ from batch updates in that their purpose is to retrieve data from the database. The purpose of batch updates is to make changes to the data in the database. Sometimes reports are available with batch updates, for example, to show data that was updated.

Use My Jobs to create, modify, run, and monitor jobs. My Jobs page includes a list of your jobs and public jobs.
