How to Make a Job File Triggered?

saurabh39 · Posted: Sat Apr 19, 2008 7:17 pm

Is there any way by which I can make my job file triggered?

My Requirement is, I have a master file, one job should be submitted after file has been altered. Is there any way that automatically submits the job when the file is altered and saved?

it does not make any difference from a scheduling point of view the content of the job You want to schedule

can You please clarify the concept of ... altered vs. saved

as a general understanding

alter means just to alter any record in a dataset organization whicjh allows such process

save is more related to editing, at the end of the edit session the user saves the result of his/her work

why not make use of a scheduler, to schedule the appropriate job after any job that updates Your triggering resource ??

Hi,

Soory for creating confusion, by altered and save means - if a user appends a records and then saves it.

As for sceduler, this file is not being updated by any production job. It is a rexx module which we are introducing for automation purpose.
