Custom End Job Menu Item

dennispluken

I am running TS6.1 on Solaris 2.8

I have workflows set up that interact with a database to maintain data integrity through out the workflow. If a user uses the existing End Job item in the Action menu for a specific job, I end up with quite a few loose ends dangling in the database.

I want to be able to have the "End Job" menu item call a perl script that will use the job id to go through the database and do the required housekeeping, tie up any loose ends and then use iwrmjob clt to delete the job.

I have done a pretty exhaustive review of all of the documentation I can find, so it is either not out there or I am just missing it.

Can anyone help me here?

Thanks in advance!!!

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
If it don't work good, make it better.

We did it a little differently here. We have a parallel step, cancelandunlockfiles that the user can use to
end the job. This task stays in the users task list until the job completes. If they want to remove the
job they click on that task & it cleans up after itself.

Do not think there is a way to pre-empt the remove job item, that is why we do not let people
use it. (jobs are not owned the the initiatior)
