Copying Jobs and Job Streams

You must have access to the JobQueueAccess_ST or BasicProductLineAcess_ST security class, or their equivalents, in order to define jobs.

  2. Select the job or job stream you want to copy and open it.
  3. On the Job form, select Actions > Copy.
  4. On the Copy Job form, specifiy this information:
    New Job
    Speicify a name for the new job.
    New Job Description
    Specify a description for the new job.
  5. Click OK
  6. To modify the newly created job or job stream, return to the Jobs or the My Jobs tab, select the new record and open it for editing. For scheduling information, see Scheduling Background Actions.
