Overview of Jobs

Jobs are requests to perform background tasks like synchronizing data, evaluating models or controls, exporting results, or generating reports. You run or schedule a job on the page it applies to, but manage it in the Monitor Jobs page.

You can:

  • See the current status of a job and review job results.

  • Manage files created by export jobs.

  • Cancel some jobs.

  • Purge job history.

Monitor Jobs is the landing page for the Setup and Administration work area. In some cases, you can also reach it from pages in which you run jobs. For example, users run advanced controls from the Controls page in the Advanced Controls work area, and the Monitor Jobs page is available from that page. In such cases, click the Done icon to return to the page you started from.
