Job Element Manager

[Job Structure] Pane

In the [Job Structure] pane, you can manage jobs in a tree structure, and display the structure of pages included in a job and the status of assigning pages to workflow items. You can edit the job structure from the context menu.

In addition, for PDF files in which the input file includes layer information, versioning can be set and sections can be created.

Note

XMF jobs consist of individual pages included in the input data, and sections that group together these pages.
Using multiple sections in the following types of situations enables jobs to be managed efficiently.

In variable jobs, the job structure per record is set, and this setting is applied to all records.
