Function documentationJob Documentation

 

Job documentation is the central object of the Job Scheduling Management standard. It allows you to centrally manage, schedule, and document in detail the background processing of your entire system landscape.

Features

The Job Documentation view of the Job Management work center is the central access point to most activities related to job documentation. It provides the following functions:

  • Displaying job documentation

    Job documentation is displayed in a list. You can choose a standard query or define your own queries. You can use Quick Criteria Maintenance to further restrict the display. When you select job documentation in the list, its details are displayed below.

  • Creating and editing job and job chain documentation

    You can use job documentation templates to ensure consistency.

  • Copying job documentation

    When you copy job documentation, the copy gets the name Copy from <name of source documentation>.

  • Creating a new version

    To save the current version of the job documentation before making changes, you can create a new version. You can later view the saved versions by opening the job documentation and choosing Versions.

  • Activating or deactivating job monitoring

    If job monitoring is configured for the job documentation, you can activate or deactivate the job monitoring directly in the overview. You do not need to open the job documentation to do so.

    For more information, see Job Monitoring and Alerting.

  • Activating or deactivating change control

    When change control is active, the job documentation can only be edited if the associated CRM document has the status In Process and the user who wants to edit the job documentation is assigned as processor.

  • Creating a print view of job documentation as a PDF document
