Logging job information before the job completes

RICOH ProcessDirector writes job information to an audit log when the job's retention period ends. You can also log job information at any point in the print process.
To log job information before the job completes:
  1. Add a step based on the WriteJobLog step template to the workflow at the point where you want to log the information (for example, after the PrintJobs step).
  2. In the WriteJobLog step, set these properties:
    1. Set External command to a command that writes a log file. For example:
      cp ${getControlFileName()} /aiw/aiw1/testfiles/${Job.ID}.log
    2. Set External control file to the name of the job audit control file that defines the properties that you want to log.
