Merge Jobs
The Merge Jobs action task merges an external metadata file containing an OLConnectJob
with the current job file.
Input
The task must receive a Job metadata file, which is output from the Create Job task. The
selected metadata file must also be the output of a Create Job task.
Processing
The current metadata file is merged with the selected external metadata file.
Output
The task outputs a merged Job metadata file which can be used in the Create Output task.
Properties
General Tab
l
Metadata file: Enter the full path to a valid Job Metadata file, or use the Browse button to
browse to a valid location.
On Error Tab
The On Error tab is common to all tasks. Details can be found in the" Task Properties Dialog"
on page731.
By default, any action task, branch, splitter or condition that generates an error will simply be
ignored, and the task just under it (not within a branch)will be given control of the job file
without any modification. Any initial input task that generates an error will stop the process from
running as a whole, and output tasks will not generate output. The On Error tab can be used to
overwrite the default behaviors.
l Send to Process: Check this option to send the job file to an error management process.
l
Error Process drop-down:Enabled only when the Send to Process option is checked.
Lists any process of which the initial input task is the Input Error Bin task.
