Executing a job using batch file

[former_member208246]

Hi Every one,

Can we execute a job from another job using a batch file.

If so, how to invoke and run the jobs successfully?

Thanks and regards

Hi Sanjay,

Please refer the below link for executing a job by another job in BODS 4.1 using simple script

Hi,

Go to Management Console > Batch jobs > Batch job configuration > 'Export execution'

This will generate a .bat file in the install folder (will be displayed).

Create a script file in job connect after the dataflow-

inside the script

sleep(2000);

exec('cmd.exe','C:\..............dir..........',8);

Print(Job B running);

Note - you wont see the job run status for the second job when you use this approach.

Thanks,
Arun
