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.
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.
