VISUAL|job for TWS

The focal point of job flowcharting, documentation, reporting, maintenance and design for the TWS for z/OS and End-to-End environments

The intelligent graphical user interface of VISUALjob for TWS eliminates time consuming and error prone manual interactions. Having one integrated solution for cross referencing, graphical design, forecasting and quality assurance results in a better understanding of the job nets, an overall gain in productivity and quality in net design and maintenance.

Intuitive Graphical Interface

VISUALjob for TWS provides managers, production staff, applications personnel and end-users with an interactive visualization of the TWS job flow with the click of a mouse. Complex relationships between processes are presented in an interactive flowchart, not only reducing the time it takes to understand the existing environment but also pinpointing potential problems.

Cross Reference Reporting

Searching for criteria within the schedule and generating dynamic reports could not be easier with VISUALjob for TWS. The cross referencing facility offers a powerful reporting tool with an easy to use interface; without requiring individual coding skills or proprietary languages. Learn More ...

Forecasting

The flexibility to accurately forecast when one application, multiple applications or even entire batch flows will or will not be scheduled within TWS for execution identifies potential conflicts so they can be resolved before they negatively affect the production environment. Learn More ...

Workload Analysis

VISUALjob for TWS enables the user to visualize past executions in a Gantt chart, based on the actual runtime information collected in the statistical database. This provides an excellent graphical overview about how processes have performed in the past and as compared to their average performances. Learn More ...

Workload Simulation

When there is no way to accurately simulate the effect of an added load to a job flow or the longer/shorter running of jobs within a flow, service levels are hard to define. VISUALjob for TWS provides comprehensive workload simulation functions with graphical support through the GANTTview to perform resource utilization and proactive analysis. Learn More ...

Creating Images and Printing

Creation of graphics, prints, PDFs and/or MS VISIO of the job flows facilitate accurate communications between interrelated departments and better documents the business processes that TWS supports. Learn More ...

Web Reporting

In addition to the imaging and printing capabilities within VISUALjob, it is possible to create robust web based reports of the schedule flow. With a click of the mouse, reports containing hyperlinks, graphical and textual information are produced. The produced reports can be immediately available for view on your intra/internet site. Learn More ...

Designing and Maintaining TWS for z/OS Scheduling Definitions

From directly within a Windows GUI, authorized users can quickly and easily edit, duplicate or delete specific scheduling information. All TWS for z/OS parameters are supported and all field names used in the GUI are the same as in the TWS for z/OS ISPF interface, so users will be inherently familiar with the fields. Learn More ...

Mass Change

The mass change capability allows you to make multiple changes to multiple scheduling parameters across common applications/operations in a single step. Using the same powerful search tool as the cross reference facility users search for the applications/operations and specify the change(s) to be made. Learn More ...

Loop Analysis and Detection

A loop within the schedule can have disastrous consequences on the production environment. The VISUALjob for TWS loop detection facility identifies potential loops before they negatively impact batch production. In doing so, no TWS for z/OS trial plan needs to be created; which saves time and resources. Loop detection is available for a single operation or for checking an entire job net. Learn More ...

Job Path Analysis

It is often critical to identify the path of operations between the start and end of a process. The path search feature of VISUALjob provides flexible search capabilities for a path between operations based upon a given start and/or end operation. The results can be displayed graphically and optionally in a list format. Learn More ...

Change Management

VISUALjob for TWS is packaged with the VISUALjob for TWS Mainframe Component to unload and load all TWS for z/OS base definitions. Powerful selection criteria allow you to generically or explicitly qualify applications and which other resources (base definitions) associated with those applications to unload automatically. ALL base definitions are supported and can be unloaded/loaded in batchloader format or to a flat file. Because the data is sequential, it is compatible with virtually all change management solutions / strategies.
