Job Dependency Data Table Report
The Job Dependency Data Table report is similar to the Job Dependency Data Table report in that it maps out all the predecessor and successor of a job. It is useful to use both reports in combination to understand complex designs in which jobs have multiple relationships.
This report contains multiple tables (for the job, its predecessors and successors). The columns and information contained in the tables is different depending on the scheduler.
Configuring the Report
The configuration options of this report are self-explanatory but for the following two, which require some explanation:
-
All children inherit level from parent
If you select this option, the graphic displays every single upstream dependency. If you select a job which is embedded in several layers of containers, all dependency arrows pointing to the top container are displayed. This can make the graphic unreadable.
-
Include Non-impacting Box Children
If the selected job has children which are containers with no impact on the job, you can exclude them to make the graphic more readable.
