With the job type you specify which data source is to be processed. Within the job, you then configure tasks and determine how the data is processed.
All jobs that you configure in a project run in parallel and can contain multiple tasks. The tasks within a job run sequentially.
You can adjust the order of the job nodes in the job tree using drag & drop. Thus, the sequence changes in which the nodes are displayed in the job tree and the status tree.
You can delete, cut, copy, or paste a job using the context menu in the job tree. Some of the commands are only available if the job is not currently running. You can also move the task nodes using drag & drop to change the order in which they are processed.

|
The order of the tasks in the tree is important because they are processed from top to bottom. Therefore, pay particular attention to correct sequencing when a task depends on the result of a previous one. |

If you perform drag and drop while holding down the <Ctrl> key, a duplicate of the moved job or task node is created. |
