MasterScope JobCenter

Manual processes invite unexpected errors and leads negative impact on the business. What’s more, daily changes and expansions to the system come alongside business advances, weighing down the IT administrator. MasterScope JobCenter provides you with the foundation you need to automate administrative tasks for reduced operation expenses and a refreshingly simplified operations environment.

Simplifies complicated workflows

You can construct workflows with a simple drag and drop, checking operations

then and there. Through the use of layers, it’s easy to construct workflows that are

easy to understand – even for large-scale systems. Your workflows can also be

used together with SAP® and MasterScope SVF.

• Part objects: conditional branches, re-executions, parallel processing, operator validation, and more

• Waiting part objects: file, time, event waiting, and more

An intuitive interface and powerful part objects making it easy to define workflows for even the most elaborate organizations

By using this already familiar office software, you can define jobs through batch

edit (including input support and error checking) and import/export functions.

You can integrate and register definition files that have been separately edited,

making work done in separate pieces efficient and increasing productivity.

Defining a massive number of jobs using Excel for efficient batch editing and registration

Defining your workflow is as easy as drawing its flowchart. Featuring a rich variety of part objects, you can choose from any number of patterns to create your workflow. You can

even convert your job flow and its parameters into Excel and text formats and define them in a batch, so that even workflows of the largest scale are easy to edit and register.

JobCenter empowers your organization with enhanced productivity, reduced production cost, and. revitalized workflows leading to lightened workloads.

Accurate, automated jobs that follow your schedule and workflow

Now you can create a calendar and define its days of operation and non-operation.

Combining this calendar with a job schedule makes it simple to make a job

schedule that matches your complex operations.

• Calendar: Defines days of operation/non-operation for an entire system

• Schedule: Defines the date and time of jobs

Example: By defining all operations on the third Monday of a month in which it is

designated as a holiday to shift to the third Tuesday, account processing that

occurs every Monday will be processed on Tuesday of that month.

Flexible scheduling that accommodates your organizational structure

You can schedule operations flexibly and efficiently to meet the demands of both your work and system environment.

Automating jobs protects them from human error and forgetfulness.

Centralized monitoring lets you know job status at a glance, so you can discover and resolve errors right when they occur.

Other features

Access privilege to job network definitions and status monitoring

can be specified in detail, so that developer (administrator) and

user settings can be appropriately assigned.

Detailed control over user access rights

It is possible to protect your system from tampering and mistakes, and keep operations under control.

MasterScope JobCenter outputs to operat ion and job

execution logs from the client and enables to output the logs in

the CSV format.

Advantage for centralized task management

MasterScope JobCenter enables the viewing of general workflow status lists and drill down to keep tabs on detailed workflow status and logs.

Displaying tracker list

You can confirm the status of jobs through color-coded icons that reveal instantaneously

whether an item completed successfully (DONE) or with errors (DONE(ERROR)), is

currently active (RUN), or scheduled (WAIT). Lists can be viewed in chronological

order, or by layer or group, so it is easy to confirm the details and scope of errors.

From the list screen, the force quit (Forced Stop), pause (Hold) and resume (Rerun)

functions are all just clicks away, so that solving problems is quick and easy.

Job status is color-coded so you can catch abnormalities at a glance

Detecting delays by comparing and monitoring actual execution time with the

expected execution time for each job.

Job status is monitored while comparing the expected execution time required by

each job (calculated using the job history) and the actual time spent on each job.

And you can cut down on delay-related because warning events will be issued

and the job stopped.

Viewing current job status through a Gantt Chart (work progress chart)

Email can be sent to notify the IT administrator when errors occur, enabling

prompt response. Moreover, you can use the integrated monitoring

products such as MasterScope MISSION CRITICAL OPERATIONS and HP

Software OperationsManager together to notify the administrator of events.
