Using the Job Management tools
此主题仅适用于 ArcEditor 和 ArcInfo。
The ArcGIS Workflow Manager toolbar contains many job functions to help you create new jobs, search for a job, and display information about jobs.
Other job management tools are available by right-clicking jobs in the list view.
This functionality is privilege based. If you do not have the privilege to perform these actions, the tools and menus will be unavailable.
Job management activities
Creating jobs
The Create Job button allows you to create jobs within the Workflow Manager database. The Create Jobs dialog box provides functionality to create multiple jobs of the same type as well as set default properties such as assignment, start and due dates, parent version, priority, and job description. When these properties are set, jobs will automatically contain these attributes when they are created.
On the Advanced Options dialog box, you have the ability to set the number of jobs to create, define areas of interest, and add attachments as part of the create job function.
See the Creating jobs topic for more information.
Closing jobs
The Close Job button will close a job at any time during the life of a job. Until all steps are marked as done, the Close Job button will not be enabled when that job is selected.
Once you have closed a job, it is not possible to reopen it. You can create a copy of the job by using the Clone Job tool accessed from File > New.
Finding jobs
The Find Job button allows you to search for a job by ID, name, or description. See the Finding job topic in the Jobs View book for more information about the Find Jobs dialog box.
Displaying child jobs
The Show Child Jobs button will locate all jobs marked with a parent version, for the job selected in the list. The parent version is specified on the Job Properties tab in the lower tabbed section of Workflow Manager. Parent and child job relationships are manually specified and their use is defined by you.
