ANSWER
Note: The Job Type information is not normally displayed in the LMS client; however, it is displayed in the LMS Jobs Manager tool. This table links the job type IDs as seen in that tool with the names seen in the LMS client. Some jobs do not run at scheduled intervals and do not appear in the LMS client. These jobs are generated on an as-needed basis and have "N/A" for the Job Name in this table.
| Job Name | Job Type (internal ID) | Description | Default execution schedule |
| Delete finished jobs | DELETEJOBS | Each execution of an ELN background job is saved to a table in the database. This job checks for old entries in this table and deletes them. | Every day at 06:00 |
| Delete old external systems records | DELETE_OLD_RESULTS | This job refers to data received in ELN either by the Waters Agents (similar to the SDMS Instrument Agents, but rather than storing files in SDMS they store them in ELN) or through an External Systems request. Both systems are obsolete in NuGenesis 8 ELN. They were removed from the product in NG8 FR1, but some vestiges remain in NG8 SR1. The job looks for data in the external systems table and deletes old entries. This job is obsolete and not present in LMS FR1. | Every day at 23:00 |
| Check deadlines | CHECKDEADLINES | This job checks for documents where a signature request was sent with a deadline. If any signature requests are outstanding and the signature has not been applied, the system sends an email to the person to whom the signature request was sent, informing them of the outstanding request. | Every day at 23:00 |
| Check substance expiry date | CHECKSUBSTEXPIRY | This job checks for entries in the Reagents & Solvents inventory that are expired and marks them as inactive. | Every day at 07:00 |
| Create Documents for Test Requests | SCANSAMPLEMANAGEMENT | This job creates documents for Test Requests where the results have a document template and the request is for auto-document creation. | Every 60 seconds |
| Instrument Calibration Schedule | CALIBRATIONCHECKER | This job checks for entries in the Instruments inventory that are due for calibration. It can mark the instrument as invalid, send an email to the instrument owner, and create a document to calibrate the instrument. The actions taken by this job are set by the job parameters. You can get to the parameters by clicking on the job in the Background Processing window. | Job is never executed |
| Instrument Maintenance Schedule | MAINTENANCECHECKER | The same as "Instrument Calibration Checker" but uses the Instrument Maintenance Due Date, not the calibration due date. | Job is never executed |
