Jobs (JOBS)

A Job is a unit of work that is Agent-specific. A Job executes commands on computers or in enterprise business solutions. These solutions differ from each other, therefore specific Job templates are available for each of them. This means that there are Windows, UNI and Java Jobs, for example. Jobs are always assigned to Agents. They always need a Login object that submits the necessary credentials to the target system (Agent).

As a designer, you create Job objects (JOBS) to execute processing steps in a target system. You can specify their attributes using the Automic Web Interface on the Job definition pages. Alternatively, you can use the Automation Engine scripting language to add functional logic on their Process pages, where their JCL is stored.
