Jobs are used to track activity (and progress of activity) within the SquareOne system. For example, a job is created each time a package is deployed (see Package Deployment).

The top-level Jobs screen lists the jobs that are currently running, and/or those that have completed (depending on the filter selected). Note that by default only jobs that are in progress and started by the Current User are shown. Use the quick filter buttons or the filter options to adjust if required. 

The progress bar indicates how far the job has progressed, and also how much (if any) of the job has failed.

Clicking the name of a job provides a drill-down into the information for that job, described in the following sections.

Information

In the Information tab of the Jobs screen, additional information is shown about the job. Note that some of the information shown links directly to other parts of the system (e.g. the Package, Version and User). 

Work Items

In the Work Items tab of the Jobs screen, the individual parts of the Job (typically each device that is affected) are listed. From this screen, it is possible to see the status for each specific item within the job (e.g. those that have not yet been completed or have failed).
