Working with job templates

From DataMiner 9.6.6 onwards, it is possible to save a particular job configuration as a job template. This way you can later apply the template to immediately fill in the configured values.

Note

The default fields Name, Start Time and Stop Time, as well as any auto-increment or booking fields are not included in job templates.

Saving a job template

  1. Create a job, applying the configuration you would like to have in the template, but do not save it.
