You can define meaningful work by associating metadata with job types and by assigning schedules to the work.
When managing the work of Oracle Enterprise Scheduler jobs, you can:
Associate request instance-specific data through properties -- whether your own or the system's -- that tie jobs to the context in which they are running
Determine what level of access a group of people have to data related to the work done by jobs.
Organize jobs into job sets so that they can be run as a unit, whether in sequence or in parallel.
Specify that certain job definitions may not run at the same time, and the circumstances under which they cannot.
Define the constraints within which jobs may run, based on factors such as system resources.
