Running a Waiting Job Immediately

Use this procedure to assign the highest priority to a job with a status of Waiting or Waiting on Time. The job will run immediately on the designated queue regardless of how congested the job queue is. If another job that calls the same program in the same data area is already running, however, the selected job is given a status of Waiting Step and is still listed on the Waiting Jobs form.

To run a waiting job immediately

  1. Access the Lawson Interface Desktop (LID) Job Scheduler and click the Waiting Jobs button.
  2. Select the Waiting or Waiting on Time job that you want to run.
  3. From the Actions menu, select Run Job Immediately.
  4. If you want to change the job queue, select the name of the job and click Change.

    This job queue overrides the job queue assigned for the job when it was submitted. If you do not assign a job queue, Job Scheduler assigns the default job queue (**********).
