Jobs and review
Long running work runs as a job. Work that needs a person's approval waits in the review inbox.
The job queue
Open Jobs in the sidebar. The queue is shared: every member sees every job, with the member who started it named against it.
| Column | Contents |
|---|---|
| Type | What the job does, for example Extract pain points or Market report |
| Project | The project the job belongs to |
| Created | When it was started |
| Status | Pending, Running, Complete or Failed |
| Control | Effect |
|---|---|
| All and Mine | Shows every job, or only your own |
| Refresh | Reloads the list |
| Auto-refresh | Reloads the list continuously |
| Retry | Restarts a failed job from its last checkpoint |
| Cancel | Stops a pending or running job |
Outputs
A completed job lists what it produced.
| Output | Meaning |
|---|---|
| File | A file written to the project |
| Report | A report written to the project |
| Thread reply | A reply posted into the conversation that started the job |
A failed job carries Error details stating the reason.
Cost
Each job shows its model cost, and the page shows a Page total.
| Reading | Meaning |
|---|---|
| An amount | The estimated cost of the model calls the job made |
| No model calls | The job used no model. The cost is genuinely zero |
| Not priced | The model has no configured price. The cost cannot be estimated and was not zero |
| Not measured | No cost data was reported |
Where some calls could not be priced, the figure shown is a floor and the note says so.
Duplicate work
Starting a stage action that another member already started reports Already started by another member and starts nothing.
Scheduled jobs
Recurring work is scheduled per project. Open Operations on the project, or the Scheduled jobs tab of the Jobs page.
- Select the Job type.
- Select the Cadence: Daily, Weekly or Monthly.
- Select Create.
| Job type | Produces |
|---|---|
| A1 Market report | A market report for the project |
| B1 Positioning | A positioning analysis |
| C1 Compliance check | A compliance checklist |
Each schedule shows its owner, its Next run and its Last run. Select Enable or Disable to change whether it runs. A schedule that has not run reads Not run yet.
Creating or switching a schedule requires the reviewer or admin role. Other members see the list read only.
Reports produced by scheduled jobs appear under Latest ops reports on the project's Operations page.
The review inbox
The review inbox holds artifacts submitted for sign off. Open Review Inbox in the sidebar. The sidebar entry carries the pending count.
Access requires the reviewer or admin role.
