Exist any way to have only object code for a job in the server?

We received a request for not allow access to source code of the jobs and we do not know how do it.

Can you help us?

Yes. By just exporting job and routine executables.

That is that I must export only the executables of a project and then import them in another project?

Or you can look into 'Releasing' jobs and using the Package Installer to migrate executables.

However, I believe you are doing yourself a great disservice by not including the 'source'. Are you sure that 'not allow access to source code of jobs' doesn't just mean you use a Protected Project or transfer the jobs over as Read Only? That would allow the 'source code' to be seen but not changed.

Our production environment is implemented as Craig suggests. All projects in the production server are "protected". The developers/support personnel are authorized as "Developers" and can view the Job designs but they cannot make any changes.

A separate change control group has authorization as "Production Manager" and can import Job design changes. There is a process around the developers making a request for a job change which requires approval of the appropriate personnel.
