Develop New Jobs

CA Clarity PPM provides many stock jobs. If you cannot find a job that satisfies your requirements, you can also develop new customer-specific jobs.

You must have programming experience to develop new jobs, such as writing queries, statements, procedures, and Java classes.

To create a new job

1. Pick a method that best addresses the job you want to create and then write the queries, statements, or procedures for it.
   • Guidelines for SQL stored procedure executable types.
   • Guidelines for Java executable types.
2. Deploy the executable.
3. Create a job definition for the new job by referencing the executable type and name of the method.

To enable the background scheduler to clean up all processing jobs at start up, you can set the isPrimary attribute on the jobSchedulerInstance element in properties.xml to true. Setting this attribute to true is useful when the background server shuts down and restarts while a job is executing.
