Configuring a new job

Learn how to create a new job in the Content Administration page.

1. Log in to IBM Cognos Analytics as an administrator.
2. Open the menu and go to Manage > Content.
3. On the Content Administration page, click the New job icon.
   An empty New job page opens with no steps are defined.
4. Click the Add job step icon.
5. Select the content items to add as job steps.
   For example, you can add a report, an import, an export, and so on.
6. Click the Add job steps button to confirm your selection and add the step.
7. Specify the Run Options property.
   • Run all at once: all jobs run at the same time.
   • Run in sequence: the jobs run one after another in the listed order.
8. Specify the Continue on Error option.
   This option is enabled by default and the job continues to run even if a step returns an error. If you disable it, the job stops if any step fails.
9. Save the job.
