Managing document-style report generation jobs

You can use the Job details page in Publishing Document Builder to view the document-style report generation jobs that are currently running on the server. You can review job information, change the state of a job, cancel a job, or search for a job.

1. You can view jobs that have been running for a long time on the Long running jobs tab, or view all jobs on the Jobs tab.
2. To see the details for an individual job, click View job details in the Actions column.
3. To pause a job, select the specific running job and click Pause in the Actions column. The selected job stops running and remains paused.
4. To resume a job, select the specific running job and click Resume in the Actions column. The selected job resumes.
5. To cancel a job, select the specific running job and click Cancel in the Actions column.

   Table 1. Document-style report generation job statuses

   Status	Description
   Running	Jobs that are currently in progress.
   Paused	Jobs that have been paused by the administrator or the user.
   Failed	Jobs that might not be completed successfully.
   Cancelled	Jobs that have been canceled by the administrator.
   Finished	Jobs that completed successfully.

   Note: Administrators can change the threshold that triggers the job to appear on the Long running jobs tab by setting the Long running jobs threshold value under Monitor and control on the Runtime variables tab.
6. To refresh the status of the jobs, click the Refresh icon.
   Administrators can change how often the page refreshes by setting the Job details refresh interval value under Monitor and control on the Runtime variables tab. Finished jobs are not displayed by default. If you are monitoring a long-running job, and the job disappears because it has completed, you can find the job by clicking the Jobs tab and then Advanced search link. Select the Finished job status and search for your completed job.
7. You can search for jobs within the page by entering text in the Find in page field, or use Advanced search link to search all jobs by name, user, status, or date. You can also page through the list of reports or sort the reports by columns.
