Learn about multiple instance jobs in server developer guide. Job Invocations are used in multiple instance jobs.

Let us assume you have a simple job that you declare as multi-instance. It accepts a source file name as a parameter and all it does is read the sequential file, perform some transformations onto the data and load it into a database table.
You can start this one job several times in parallel, with each instance using a different parameter value for the source file.

Invocation Id help's you to run the same job on the same server with the same name by multiple users at a given instance of time.

If any instance of the jobs abort then the other instance WILL not be effected by this.

That mean that each instance is independent of the other.

Hope this clear what an invocation id is.

Do let us know what do you feel about the same.
