Run jobs

Job tiles in the Workflow pane allow you to interact with jobs and contain the following information:

  • Job Name—The name of the job
  • Due—The date the step was scheduled to be completed
  • Type—The name of the job template on which the job is based
  • Step—The current step in the workflow

To run a step that is assigned to you or your group click the Start Step button Start Step on the job. Once the job has started, the Finish button appears and a Started or Running message appears at the bottom of the job tile. If the step was configured with Zoom to location, the map in ArcGIS Pro zooms to the job's location.

Note:

If you try to run a job that is not assigned to you and you don't have sufficient privileges to assign the job to yourself, you can't run the job and the Unable to assign step message appears.
