Specifying how to store successful jobs

A job is stored in the queue until it is marked as successful or failed. What to do with a job after it is marked as successful depends on the option you specify for how to store successful jobs. These options are described in the table below.

Option	Description
No	No job or job information is stored. If you select this option, jobs cannot be resent from the queue, and no information about the job can be retrieved.
Store information only	No job is stored, but information about the job is stored. If you select this option, jobs cannot be resent from the queue.
Store information and job	The job and information about the job is stored. This is the default option. If you select this option, jobs can be resent from the queue. Successful jobs remain in the queues as long as specified in the Platform configuration dialog box (see Configure Platform dialog box – Generic layer mode).

When is a job marked as successful?

•	A job sent from an output queue is marked as successful when the output job is successfully delivered from the output connector.

•	A job sent from an input queue is marked as successful when it is successfully processed, and when all output jobs created from this job are successfully delivered from the output connectors.
