Job owner activity

Use the Job owner activity to set the current owner of the running job. Based on some rules or decisions, the owner of the job may vary.

The job owner owns the jobs regardless of who performs or completes the tasks. This always ensures the visibility of assigned jobs. For example, as the team leader (TL) is responsible for all jobs the team completes, assigning the TL as the owner of the jobs means that the TL can view and track the progress of the team as required.

A Job owner activity is not supported in synchronous maps.

A job owner can:

  • Be an individual or a group resource. However, only one resource can be the job owner at a time.

  • Be a static or dynamic resource. If dynamic, the real job owner can be assigned at runtime.

  • Change the owner of the job at runtime; however, a supervisor can also do so.
