About publishing jobs

A publishing job defines the source and destination systems and the options that are used to publish documents between them. Publishing jobs are created from publishing job templates in Meridian Enterprise Server Configurator. A template provides specific options that depend on the type of the source or destination system. Some publishing job templates are provided with Meridian Enterprise Server and some are installed by other BlueCielo products.

Multiple publishing jobs can be created for running by Meridian Enterprise Server and each job can be ran either manually or as a scheduled task.

Note    You must be a member of a BlueCielo group with the BC Publisher Administrators or Application Administrators permission in order to create or manage a publishing job.

To use publishing jobs to publish documents, you perform the following steps in the order listed, regardless of the job template that is used to create the job:

1. Create publishing jobs as described in Creating a publishing job.
2. Configure the publishing jobs as described in the topics that describe each job template type.
3. Run publishing jobs as described in Running a publishing job.
4. Monitor the progress of publishing jobs as described in Monitoring background tasks.
