Viewing Job History

The list of running and completed jobs can be viewed and queried in the job history. Job results are retained by the application server and may be retrieved later in the same user session or in a later session. The following job types return results which can be viewed in job history:

The job history list can be filtered to show a subset of jobs. If no filtering is used, all jobs are returned. You can also select and order the columns for the job history list.
