You can filter batches by groups in the Job Monitor based
on your ADSI, LDAP, or LLLDAP group authentication.
The user's view of batches in Job Monitor can be restricted to
batches that are assigned to a specific group. The application's rules
determine the groups that can view the batch. Four steps must be
completed to filter batches by group in the Job Monitor.
- You must set up your ADSI, LDAP, or LLLDAP group authentication
in the Taskmaster Server
Manager. If LLLDAP is used, the group-based authentication option
must be used. For information on setting up LLLDAP group authentication,
see LLLDAP group authentication
- A custom column must be defined in the tmBatch table in the Taskmaster Engine database.
For information on defining a custom column, see Creating a
custom column in the Job Monitor
- The group names must be set up for filtering purposes by defining
a custom Job Monitor filter in the Application Manager. The two methods
for filtering are with exclusive groups and additive groups.
- You can define a maximum of 31 additive groups. Each user can
be member of multiple groups and each batch can be assigned multiple
groups. The user must belong to all of the groups that are assigned
to the batch to view that batch.
- You can define up to 32,000 exclusive groups. Each user can be
a member of only one exclusive group and a batch can be assigned to
one filter group. You can create a supervisor group whose members
can view all batches with exclusive filters.
- You must assign one or more groups to each batch to be filtered
by adding a rule in Datacap Studio.
When groups are assigned to a batch by this rule, the batch can be
viewed in Job Monitor only by members of the assigned group.
The batches that you run by selecting can be limited by
using additive group filters in the same way that those batches are
limited in Job Monitor. You cannot use exclusive group filters to
limit batches that are run when you select Run Shortcut.
