Job execution (CE)Jobs can be started in multiple ways. The job’s status defines how you can start the job. You can start the job if the job’s status is In Queue or Free. Free status If the job’s status is Free, you can start the job through the Activate Job (ttaad5203m000) session. Activate Job (ttaad5203m000) If you start the job before the time and date of execution, the job’s status changes to Waiting. While the job is being carried out, the job’s status changes to Running. Because the bshell of the user who starts the job carries out the job, the user cannot quit the bshell until the job is finished. To start a job that belongs to more than one company, you must use the Change Company command on the Menu browser’s Option menu to switch to the required company. Job status This table shows the statuses a job can have during its life span:
If required, you can cancel a job, for example, to change the job’s basic job data. To cancel the job, use the Job Data (ttaad5500m000) session. On the appropriate menu, click Cancel Job. If you cancel a job, the current session of the running job is carried out, but the following sessions in the job will not be started. The job’s status changes from In Queue to Canceled. To restart a canceled job, you must release the job to change the job’s status to In Queue or Free. To temporarily stop a job, start the Job Data (ttaad5500m000) session. On the appropriate menu, click Block Job.
