This section describes the Submit Client Scheduled Job (BURSUBM) panel.
The client scheduled job reads the Knowledge Base to determine if a new job has been created in the client
Work with Jobs area, and then submits the jobs accordingly. The client scheduled job is also called the submitter job.
To submit client scheduled jobs:
- From the
Main Menu panel, select the option Submit Client Scheduled Jobto display theSubmit Client Scheduled Job (BURSUBM)panel as shown below:
- Insert parameter names into fields as required:
- Expiration Date/Time
- Day and time at which the submitter job will stop running. Setting the
Expiration Date parameter to the value
*TODAY causes the submitter job to expire automatically. If you leave the
Expiration Date parameter blank, the submitter job does not expire.
- Maximum Number of Total Job
- Maximum number of jobs that can be submitted.
At the end of the last of these submissions, the submitter job turns itself off even if the time to switch itself off has not been reached.
- Cycle Sleep Time
- Amount of sleep time (hhmmss: hours, minutes, and seconds) between two successive job submission cycles.
- Maximum Number of Jobs for Cycle
- Maximum number of jobs that can be submitted in a submission cycle. Assuming you want to submit one job per hour, set the Cycle Sleep Time parameter to

- Input class in which the submitter job must be executed. The
JES2 Input Class parameter updates the
KURJBNPC job tabsheet located in the PDS
SKEL product library. Before submitting the submitter job, you must customize this tabsheet according to your company standards.
