About status tracking for Output Manager jobs and devices

StreamServe can receive two types of status notifications from Output Manager:

•	Job status notifications

•	Device status notifications

Job status notifications

You can use job status notifications to find out if an Output Manager job is printed successfully, queued, partially printed, etc.

Tracking the job status

You can configure StreamServer applications to wait until Output Manager returns a completed status notification before marking the StreamServe top job as completed in the runtime repository.

You can also configure StreamServer applications to trigger custom actions based on the notifications, such as sending emails, SMSs, etc.

StreamServe Connect for SAP – Delivery Manager

StreamServe applications can send Output Manager job status notifications to Delivery Manager by using the automatic XOM notifications or the SAP Delivery Manager script functions. For information about setting up Delivery Manager to receive job status notifications from StreamServe, see OpenText StreamServe Connect for SAP Deliver Manager User Guide.

Device status notifications

You can use the device status notifications to see whether a particular device is available before sending jobs. When using device notifications, Output Manager sends updates to StreamServe when the status of a device changes or when the details of the device status change (i.e. the status attribute changes). For example, when the device goes from up to down, or when the status details change from lid open to jammed.

StreamServer applications can trigger custom actions based on the notifications, such as sending emails, etc.
