Trigger Scheduling Panels

The database elements that can trigger the scheduling of a job are jobs, data sets, and input networks. The topics that follow identify the different types corresponding to these elements, their keywords, and how they cause triggering.

Note: All trigger commands share common field requirements.

Uniqueness of the trigger relationship is determined by the triggering element, triggered job name, and schedule ID. When a triggering element is successfully completed/created, the triggered job (TRGD-JOB) enters the request queue. The TRGD-JOB assumes the schedule ID of the triggering element unless TRGID is specified, in which case the schedule ID is replaced by TRGID.

Up to 255 job name/schedule ID combinations can be triggered per triggering element, or one job can be triggered by up to 255 elements.
