Running reconciliation jobs in a sequence by using the Execute activity

Before you begin

Make sure that you have a reconciliation job that you want to use in the Execute activity. See Creating-a-reconciliation-job.

To run reconciliation jobs in a sequence

1. On CMDB Portal, go to Jobs > Manage Reconciliation
   • To add the Execute activity in a new job, click Create Job. 
     See Creating-a-reconciliation-job.
   • To add the Execute activity to an existing job, on the reconciliation dashboard, select an existing job from the All Job Run Activities and then click Edit Job.
     
2. Create an Execute activity in the reconciliation job.
   1. In the Activities area, click Add activity and select Execute from the list.
      

   2. Enter the following information:

      The [confluence_table-plus] macro is a standalone macro and it cannot be used inline. Click on this message for details.
      This macro generates standalone content. As a consequence you need to make sure to use a syntax that separates your macro from the content before and after it so that it's on a line by itself. For example in XWiki Syntax 2.0+ this means having 2 newline characters (a.k.a line breaks) separating your macro from the content before and after it.
      

   3. In Job to Execute, select an existing reconciliation job from the list.
      
3. Click Save to save the reconciliation job with the Execute activity.
4. (Optional) To run the job immediately, open the job from All Job Run Activities and click Start Job.

If there are multiple activities in a reconciliation job and you want to run a specific activity, use the Status button to make the other activities inactive.
