Duplicating Jobs

Use the Save As option to create a duplicate of an existing job, and then update it to avoid starting over making selections each time you create a new job.

Save As is supported for the following job types:

  • Export Data

  • Import Data

  • Export Metadata

  • Import Metadata

  • Refresh Database

  • Clear Cube

  • Import Exchange Rates

Note:

For descriptions of the job types, see Job Types.

To duplicate a job:

  1. Click Application, and then click Overview.
  2. Click Actions, and then select one of the following actions:
    • Export Data

    • Import Data

    • Export Metadata

    • Import Metadata

    • Refresh Database

    • Clear Cube

    • Import Exchange Rates

  3. On the listing page, click Actions icon (Actions) in the Actions column next to the job that you want to duplicate, and then select Save As.
  4. Enter a name for the new job, and then click OK.

After the duplicate job is created, you can then open the job and update it. The error file for the duplicate job will automatically use the new job name as a prefix.
