recurring job kicks off non recurring job issue

[hrechek4470]

I have a job were the p10 step recurs every 15 minutes. I have a p20 that is set to run at 11:45 am. It is set to  check for completed normally on last occurance of P10. I have a P30 that runs at 1:45 that also checks for  completed normally on last occurance of  p10.  My issue is  P20, 30 cannot run until P10 is done. I cannot  set a dependancy to  check for <> active and completed normally. 

Job function:

P10 provides most current data for  P20& p30's time dependant report. 

Suggestions? 

Version 6.2.1.236

Hi hrechek4470,

Sounds like you are on the right track. OK to keep the current setup the same. But here we will add a variable dependency instead.

Step 1. Create and initialize variable to false, ie, P10_Ready := False

Step 2. Create a variable action to set P10_Ready := True

Step 3. Create a variable action to set P10_Ready := False

Step 4.  Create a job event when job completes normally, call variable action to set P10_Ready to True (Step 2)

Step 5. Create a job event when job is active, call variable action to set P10_Ready back to False (Step 3)

Step 6. Add variable dependency when P10_Ready = True to both P20 and P30 jobs
