Hi,
Does anyone know if Ascential has the capability to receive workflow triggers from a source system to tell it whether to run a job or not? Thanks in advance for your help and time.

DataStage sequences can be written to do this. Since there are so many ways of branching or waiting on "triggers" it is hard to answer your question directly. Often the presence or absence of a file is used as a switch, or even as a trigger to start processing. External scripts can be called and the return codes or responses can be used to branch execution.

Thanks for the response. We did actually decide to use the switch as a solution to doing this.ArndW wrote:DataStage sequences can be written to do this.
