Job Details

Use the Job Details window to inspect one background job in depth before changing its state. The detail window is organised into four tabs: Details, Log, Data, and Graph.

Details Tab

The Details tab shows the core metadata of the selected job.

Job details tab showing timing, state, score, and node information.

Work Type
The job type name.

Created At
The date and time when the job was created.

Delete After
The scheduled date when the system will delete the job record.

Started At
The date and time when processing began.

Completed At
The date and time when processing finished.

Duration
The total processing duration.

Score
The processing priority score. Jobs with a higher score are processed first.

State
The current job state: Waiting, Processing, Error, Completed, or Aborted.

Node
The server name of the agent that processed or attempted to process the job. In multi-server deployments this helps identify which node encountered the issue.

Log Tab

Each job keeps an execution log that records what happened in the background.

Background job log with timestamped log lines.

Each log entry contains:

  • Date: the log record date and time
  • Text: the log message text
  • a log level such as Debug, Information, Warning, or Error

Data Tab

The Data tab shows additional payload information when the job type provides it. For example, a Task Evaluation job can include XML data like the following:

1
2
3
4
5
<root>
    <VersionId>7b410523-1cda-4ef5-a4f1-c8af064b0860</VersionId>
    <PoolId>837f9054-d9cb-4756-86a7-0c615f980624</PoolId>
    <TaskId>59060336-41e0-4b88-9a9b-f4d4f566a65f</TaskId>
</root>

In that example:

  • VersionId is the related process version ID
  • PoolId is the related pool ID
  • TaskId is the related task ID

Graph Tab

The Graph tab shows how the selected job relates to other jobs. Some jobs create one or more follow-up jobs, and the graph renders those relationships as a tree.

Background job graph showing related jobs and state colours.

The examples currently documented on this page use these boxes:

  • Workflow schedule task represents time-based processing
  • Workflow task evaluate represents restart-time evaluation

Graph box colours vary by state:

State Workflow Schedule Box Color Workflow Task Evaluate Box Color
Waiting Green Blue
Processing Black -
Error Green Red
Completed Green -
Aborted Green Green

Note: The graph examples above reflect the currently documented workflow job types. Additional job types or visual variations may appear depending on the deployment and version.
