FlowForce Server job

FlowForce Server Job is a task or series of tasks executed by a server. Assignments can be very simple, such as moving files or sending emails, or multiple operations can be performed to execute complex workflows, and the results (such as files) can be passed as parameters to other jobs. The homework consists of input parameters, steps, triggers, and other settings.

The steps define the actual operations to be performed by the FlowForce Server Job. In its simplest form, job steps are operations that execute functions and report successful or failed results. Structures can be defined to conditionally or cyclically execute job steps. Due to the fact that a single step can execute a complete independent job, it can be nested. Homework can include the required number of steps and be executed in the defined order.
