Storing Jobs

If you want jobs to be saved in TotalFlow Production Manager after printing, you can store them.

Stored jobs and printed and held jobs both remain in TotalFlow Production Manager after printing, while other jobs are deleted. The difference is that you can specify a time when stored jobs are automatically deleted, but printed and held jobs remain in the system until you delete them.

To store a job:

  • To store a job until you delete it:
    1. On the Job Setup page of the Properties for Job dialog, expand the Advanced Settings section and set the Store property to Store indefinitely.
      Properties for Job: Job setup page
    2. Click OK.
    The job processes normally until it is printed. After printing, the job remains in TotalFlow Production Manager until you delete or reprocess it.
  • To store a job for a specific time:
    1. On the Job Setup page of the Properties for Job dialog, set the Store property to Store for.

      You see Days and Hours fields.

      Properties for Job: Job setup page
    2. Enter or select values in the Days and Hours fields.
    3. Click OK.
    The job processes normally until it is printed. After printing, the job remains in TotalFlow Production Manager until the specified time expires or until you delete it, whichever comes first.
