Call Job Sequence from another job

[psluser]

Hi,

Our requirement is to control a Job Sequence from another job(in job control). Is it possible to do it or is there any other alternative available to acheive the same.

Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

please elaborate what you want to achieve, may be you need to custom code in JOB-Control tab.

Hi,

We have a seq named "JobSeq1".
And a job named "Job1".

I want to run/call the JobSeq1 from Job Control tab of "Job1".

I hope this clears the question.

yes you can do it.............just go to job control tab in JOB-PROPERTIES, you will have a drop down list of jobs and sequences, you add your sequence and run your job.
the job will call your sequence and then finish itself.

Of course there are alternatives. I, for one, would not run a Sequence job from the Job Control tab of another job. One alternative - create a new Sequence job that first runs the Sequence in question and then the job that should follow. That would give you much more control over what happens.
