It worked, Thanks Michael and Chulett..

Thanks for the reply Andrw

Can you please elaborate more on setting the user status..

I have a job in the sequence which uses a after job sub routine to kick of a shell script which does an insertion in a table used by another job.

How can I get the status of the script using a routine activity stage (whether it ran successfully or not?)

Thanks in advance.

I am calling a script in the execute command stage and would like to parameterize the path of the shell script.
what is the syntax for it?

Thanks
