Jobs table does not show the correct predicted outcome
If the Jobs table or the Predicted outcome property on the job properties
notebook shows on-schedule jobs as behind schedule or behind-schedule
jobs as on schedule, there might be a problem with the estimated
durations. The estimated durations for one or more of the steps in the
workflow might not be accurate, or you might not have included steps in
the estimate that you should have included.
-
You must use the legacy user interface for this procedure.
To adjust estimated durations for steps in a workflow:
-
Click the
Workflow
tab.
-
In the Workflow Objects
portlet, click the Workflows tab.
-
Click the name of the workflow.
-
Disable the workflow.
-
Click Edit estimated
durations (
).
-
Review the estimated duration
of each step.
-
If an estimated duration is not
accurate, change it.
-
If you want to include an
estimated duration for a step that is not included in the
estimate, set the Include in estimated duration property to Yes. Specify
both the estimated duration and the number of jobs or pages that
are used to calculate the estimated duration.
-
If you want to stop computing
estimated durations for all the steps in the workflow, do these
steps:
-
Select all the steps.
-
Set the Change column
property to Include.
-
Set the Include
property to No.
-
Click Apply.
-
When you finish, click OK.
-
Save and enable the workflow.
Your changes to the estimated duration of the steps in the workflow
affect the predicted outcome for jobs submitted to the workflow in the
future. Your changes have no effect on the predicted outcome for jobs
that have already been processed.
