Is the offshore team developing or testing? If the former they will need the job design; if the latter they will need the job executable (and probably the job design). In addition they will need all repository objects upon which the job depends; data elements, routines, shared containers, table definitions and transforms.
And, if you're in Pune, why do you refer to "back in India"?

Re: regarding exporting the jobs created in designer
When you export, you export either into a XML file or a DSX file. To import, you again use the manager, Click on import and then depending on your export file(DSX or XML) choose 'DataStage Components' or 'DataStage Components(XML)'.Saama wrote: how do my offshore team back in india import these jobs .

hi,
my company has registered, i said my comapny to register, they did so.
My offshore team wants to analyze the design what i created.
i want to export the design, what components i used, what routines used, which all stages used in developing job.
In order to do i went to manager, select the project and in that i have choose job and click export---->datastage components----->in the components tab----> selected
job design
when i select stage types- iam not able to view the stages used in developing job.infact it displays all the components in the pallete.
i cant even view the functions used in transformer stage.
in the options category i have choosen by individual component.
if i export the job, can a developer understand the stages used and transformation used.
plz help me how to export , Am i analyzing in right way
cheers;

You designed it. Only you know every component that you used. You don't need to export stage types, because their DataStage project will have these too (or will need to install them). But you do need to export every component that you or one of your team created which forms part of the job design in question.

So export the job design. Follow that with exports of any components they'd need to be able to compile it there, appending them to the export file:
Custom Routines
Custom Transforms
Shared Containers
As noted, you need to know what you need to include, it won't fish them out for you automagically. If you are unsure, include them all in the initial export with the job design.

hi,
Thanks a lot.
my doubt is when i click on available tables, i just can select only one table
how to select 2 tables, like if i performed join transformation in a particular job, that means i need to select 2 tables, one of my friend is telling me that there is no need of selecting 2 tables, the other table will automatically exported.
the list only says to include routines, what about how to include functions.
i used some i conv and oconv transformations, how to include those.
iam not appending to a file. when to go for this option. bz iam just exporting as .dsx file.
even iam not choosing the option to compile and run, when to go for these options, plz help me to analyze, am i going in the right way.
plz help me.

- Right
how to select 2 tables,
- One after the other or you can select by category too
like if i performed join transformation in a particular job, that means i need to select 2 tables, one of my friend is telling me that there is no need of selecting 2 tables, the other table will automatically exported.
- If you need two tables you need to select both of them, it does not happen automatically. If you have saved the join metadata then only that could suffice
the list only says to include routines, what about how to include functions.
i used some i conv and oconv transformations, how to include those.
- ICONV and OCONV are inbuilt, you dont need to export these
iam not appending to a file. when to go for this option. bz iam just exporting as .dsx file.
- You select append to a file, if you already have a .dsx file and you need to append new jobs/routines to it
even iam not choosing the option to compile and run, when to go for these options, plz help me to analyze, am i going in the right way.

Finding answers is simple, all you need to do is come up with the correct questions.

This isn't that difficult. 
They don't need the table metadata to run the jobs. However, if you want to include it, export them one at a time to the same .dsx and choose the 'Append' option. Your friend is incorrect about 'the other table will automatically exported', it won't.
Same goes for any custom routines or transforms. Either all of them or cherry-pick the ones you want by exporting one at a time. In any case, append them to the same .dsx export so you only have one file to send.
You don't need to include any built-in objects like IConv or OConv, only any custom objects written in your shop as I mentioned earlier - routines, transforms, shared containers.
There is no 'compile and run' option, so not sure what you are referring to there.

There is no "multi select" capability in the Export dialog's drop-down lists. On the Options tab choose to export individual components or categories.
To export a second category, or a second infividual component, you need to do a second export, this time with the Append check box checked.
Or you can export the entire project, and allow your colleagues "back in India" to do a selective Import.
