A job is a single unit of work in ArcGIS Workflow Manager. In some organizations, this might be known as a work order or a task. Jobs can be assigned to a user or a group and can be scheduled for completion by a certain date. Jobs are created from a job template, which outlines the scope and properties of work and contains additional details to help complete steps in a workflow. Complete the steps in the following sections to create jobs in the Workflow Manager web app.
