Trigger Expression

Hi,

I have 5 Job Activities in a sequence job.And I have declares a Job Parameter.
Based on the Job Parameter value, From the job Activity1, it will trigger the Job Activity2 or
Job Activity3.Here, I have written a Trigger Expression like Substrings(jobparameter,1,3)='xyz'
It should trigger a Job Activity2 else Job Activity3.

While compiling this sequence job, it gives a error like
Trigger Expression lnk_Job Activity2 - 'Job Parameter' not defined.Anyhelp would be highly appreciated.
I have defined the Job parameter.

TIA

Ensure that 'jobparameter' is a job parameter of the sequence.

So... what has changed between when it was working and now?

Be prepared to look outside the job - even if nothing has changed in the job, something has clearly changed somewhere!

There can be several reasons for this. Some of them are

1.) Someone removed the parameter from your job
2.) Someone included the check in your job
3.) The data flow never used that route in the past and was not tested for

So you are in the best seat to drive the show.
