SAP CS 8.0 - question to parallel tasks in one job chain

[Former Member]

Dear all,

I have a question about job chains in SAP CPS/Redwood

We have a job chain like this:

Job 1

     Job 1.1

               Job 1.1.1

               Job 1.1.2

     Job 1.2

                Job 1.2.1

...

The Jobs 1.1.1 and 1.1.2 should start  when the Job 1.1 is compled and don't have to wait until Job 1.2 is complete.

How could I release it in Redwood in one job chain? Should I use a precondition in the job definition of 1.1 and 1.2?

Thank you for your help.

Best regards,

Hans

Assumptions :

Job 1.1.1 and Job 1.1.2 are running in parallel.

Job 1.1, job 1.2 are also running in parallel.

Chain A -

Step 1 - Job 1.1

Step 2 - Job 1.1.1, Job 1.1.2 (these both will start as soon as Job 1.1 completes)

Chain B -

Step 1 - Job 1.2

Step 2 - Job 1.2.1

Chain C

Step 1 - Job 1

Step 2 - Chain A, Chain B (Chain A and Chain B will start as soon as Job 1 completes).

Submit Chain C.

Preconditions are usually  used to check the timewindow, for example , if you want to execute a step in a job chain, only if it is a Friday.

thanks
