Select Job Condition for Run

You can select only a single job condition for the execution of predefined jobs in a run. A hierarchy, which is already selected as a run condition, cannot be selected as a job condition.

Note:

The Cumulative Node Expression for Hierarchy Nodes used as Job Condition in a Run definition should not cross 4000 characters. If it is exceeded, you will get an error while executing the Run definition.

Job Condition is not applicable for Instance Run.

To select the job condition for a run:
  1. 1. Click Selector from the List toolbar and select Job Condition. The Filter Selector window is displayed.
  2. 2. Select the checkbox adjacent to the hierarchy that you want to select as the Job condition and click the Forward Arrow icon.
    To know about the operations you can do in this window, see Filter Selector window.

    Note:

    Ensure that you have selected only one Job Condition and the same hierarchy is not selected as both Run and Job conditions.
  3. Click OK.
    From the List grid in the Run Definition (New Mode) window, you can also:
    • Click Move to change a selected run condition to job condition and conversely. For Instance Run, the Move is disabled.
    • Click Show Details to view the metadata information of the selected member.
    • If the selected Job condition is a Parent Child hierarchy, the Use Descendants checkbox is displayed. If the checkbox is selected for a hierarchy, the descendants will be automatically applied and need not be selected in node selection from the Hierarchy Browser window.
    Once all the necessary information in the first window of the Run Definition (New Mode) is populated, click Next to navigate to the concurrent procedures of defining a Rule.

    The second window of Run Definition (New Mode) window displays all the information you have provided in the Linked to and Master information grids. You can view the selected filters in the Run Condition grid and selected jobs along with the job condition in the Detail Information grid in case of Base Run and Simulation Run. For Instance Run, only jobs will be displayed.
    Expand a job which is a process, then the Object, Parent Object, Precedence and Type columns are populated.
