After you tailor your view of a jobflow in the Jobflow Forecast window (by expanding and collapsing the levels that appear and by modifying the scheduling database), you can “take a snapshot” of the jobflow by saving it as a jobflow forecast file with an extension of .GBF.
Note: This option is available only in Unicenter Classic.
When you open a flowchart forecast, the displayed workload is not connected to the underlying scheduling database; thus, you cannot expand and contract trigger levels or display dependencies. The advantage of working with a jobflow forecast file is that you can open the file quickly, because Jobflow does not have to build a selection list of jobs in the database. Working with a file, rather than a “dynamic” flowchart is useful if your schedule does not change frequently.
For procedures to open and save a Jobflow Forecast file, see the following topics in the online CA Procedures:
