   To find one or several discrete jobs to view, release, change, reschedule, or close:

1. When the Find Discrete Jobs window appears, enter your search criteria.

You can query by Job name, job Type (standard or non-standard), Assembly, Schedule Group, a range of Build Sequences, accounting Class, a range of Start Dates, a range of Completion Dates, Sales Order, Project Number, Task Number, or job Status. You can combine or omit criteria as required.

Caution: Querying to find jobs does not validate the records returned. For example, querying to find a range of jobs to close does not return only those jobs in that range that can be closed.

2. Choose the Find button.

   To find one or several discrete jobs to include in your purge:

1. When the Find Discrete Jobs window appears, enter your general search criteria.

You can by query by Job name, job Type (standard or non-standard), Assembly, Schedule Group, a range of Build Sequences, accounting Class, a range of Start Dates, a range of Completion Dates, Sales Order, Project Number, or Task Number.

2. Select an accounting Period or enter a Cutoff Date for the purge.

You can query by closed accounting Period. When you select an accounting period, the end date of that period is defaulted as the purge Cutoff date and cannot be overridden.

If you do not select an accounting Period, the cutoff date of the most recently closed accounting period is defaulted. You can override this date with any date in a closed period.

Attention: Only jobs with close dates before or on the purge cutoff date are purged.

3. Choose whether to Include Configurations for jobs that have ATO configurations.

If you do not choose to include jobs that have ATO configurations in your query, no jobs that include ATO configurations are returned when you choose Find. If you do include configurations, you still have access to lot and serial information using the Job Lot Compositions window or the Lot Transactions and Transaction Serial Numbers windows in Oracle Inventory. See: Viewing Material Transactions.

Attention: If Oracle Bills of Materials purges the configured item that you build in Work in Process, then Oracle Bills of Material replaces the configured item on the job with the model the configuration was based on. You do not want to include configurations if you need this information for customer support. For example, if a customer complains that you did not build the configuration he ordered.
