5.3 Some Examples
Example 7
A payroll schedule (PAY) consists of two jobs:
■ PAY001 - the summary that runs every weekday and needs an input data
set, PAY001.INPUT, that is transmitted every weekday from an RJE site. It
must also wait for job PAY002.
■ PAY002 - the summary that only runs on Friday.
Criteria for schedule PAY:
WEEK-DAY
Criteria for job PAY002:
FRI
Criteria for job PAY001:
DSN PAY1.INPUT AND
(PAY2 PAY OR NOT PAY2 PAY)
This tells Unicenter CA-Scheduler to schedule job PAY001 every week day,
whether job PAY002 is scheduled or not. Job PAY001 will wait for a data set to
be created every week day, and will also wait for job PAY002, when it is
scheduled on Friday.
Example 8
The Manufacturing Quarterly production schedule (MANQTR) contains three
jobs that run on the last day of the manufacturing quarter. MANQTR runs on
a 4-week, 4-week, 5-week cycle defined in a datetable specified in the schedule
definition using a prefix of M.
Criteria for schedule MANQTR:
MDOM-1 AND
(MMOY3 OR MMOY6 OR MMOY9 OR
MMOY12)
Criteria for job JOBA:
None - Defaults to whenever the schedule is selected.
Criteria for job JOBB:
JOBA MANQTR
Criteria for job JOBC:
JOBB MANQTR
