On-Request Jobs

Applications can contain on-request jobs that run only when requested by a user. If the on-request job is not requested before it is eligible to run in the schedule, the server bypasses the job. You can include an on-request job in an Application to ensure that the job's predecessor dependencies are met before the job runs.

Example: On-Request Job

Jobs A, B, and C are eligible to run daily, but job B only runs if requested.

One of the following will occur:

• If Job B is not requested, when job A completes, job B is bypassed and job C runs.
• If Job B is requested, when job A completes, job B runs. When job B completes, job C runs.
