| 1.2. Monitoring Job Progress | ||
|---|---|---|
 | 1. Running Batch Jobs |  |
Once a job has been submitted to the xTuple Connect Batch Manager, it's possible to then go to the xTuple Connect Console and monitor the progress of jobs. This monitoring of jobs can occur either from within xTuple ERP or within the xTuple Connect Batch Manager client itself.
To monitor jobs with the Batch Manager client, select In addition, the main Batch Manager window has a status bar that changes whenever a job starts and finishes, when the Batch Manager cannot connect to the database, and when the Batch Manager receives an error looking for jobs to process. These messages remain in the status bar for an hour after they have occurred or when another message overwrites the old one, whichever comes first.
To monitor jobs within xTuple ERP, select . The following screen will appear:
On this screen you can filter by the user who submitted the job, display completed jobs, and check the "Automatically Update" option to refresh the screen on a regular interval. Completed jobs will have a Run Status of Done and a Completed timestamp. If the job failed for any reason, the first line of the error message will appear in the Exit Status column. If you allow the cursor to hover over the Exit Status text, the full version will appear in a tooltip window.
Read the exit status carefully. Jobs might show error messages for a number of different reasons. For example, a RunMRP job might fail with a database error or with an email error. The database error would mean that the planned orders were not created. The email failure would indicate that the planned orders were created as they should but this successful processing could not be reported properly.
The following options are available:
Allows you to rerun a completed job, change it to make it recur or not, and change the time it's scheduled to run
A shortcut to the RESCHEDULE button. You can highlight one or more jobs and click RETRY ASAP to rerun one or more jobs without asking any questions. Only jobs that have already completed are rescheduled by this button.
