Overview

The jobs grid provides an overview of all jobs created and options to manage them. The Jobs tab displays all the transfer jobs (jobs that actively move content), and the Simulation tab displays the simulation jobs (jobs not actually moving content). This makes it easier to manage your transfer and simulation jobs. The grid options are the same for both grids.

...

Info

If a job name is too long to display fully in the Jobs list, you can hover on the name. This will display a pop-up that displays the full name of the job.

Searching for Jobs

Use the search field to quickly find a job. Simply type the search criteria you want to use and press ENTER. The Jobs list will show only jobs that meet your search criteria. Select Clear filters to reset the jobs list.

Filtering the Jobs List

The Filter by option allows you to refine the Jobs list based on job type, status, category, source platform, or destination platform. The filters can be used in combination with the search as needed.

...

Customizing Column Options
