Because subschedules are the 'program' the Container job runs, it is important to understand the connection between the Container and the subschedule.
OpCon supports three specialized job types with dedicated operational procedures: Container jobs, Window to Host sessions, and SAP Job Menu Options.
Custom reports in OpCon are built using the BIRT (Business Intelligence and Reporting Tools) framework. Administrators can edit the Continuous-supplied BIRT reports or create entirely new ones to meet specific reporting requirements.
Deleting Daily Schedules removes Completed or unprocessed schedules from the Daily tables.
Editing Daily Schedules modifies jobs and schedules in the Daily tables.
An escalation in OpCon is a notification marked for recurring delivery, with an escalation rule, to one or more groups of people defined in escalation groups.
Event Notification in OpCon triggers notifications when Machine, Schedule, and Job status change events occur.
Every job and schedule in the daily queue has a status reflecting its current execution state.
Notification configuration in OpCon sets up the delivery infrastructure that the SMA Notify Handler uses to send alerts — including SNMP trap settings, SPO agent configuration, and related prerequisites for each notification type.

OpCon notifications fire when jobs or schedules reach specific status conditions.

The Reporting Service is a Windows Service that extracts data from the OpCon database, transforms it, and loads it into a dedicated Reporting database. This isolates reporting queries from the operational database and makes the data viewable and downloadable through Solution Manager.
SAP jobs include right-click menu options to monitor and restart SAP Child Processes and view SAP Job Spools from within the Enterprise Manager.
Schedule and job status change commands are used with events and graphical interfaces.
Schedules and jobs in Schedule Operations have a status that indicates state and determines allowed status changes.
When schedules are built for a schedule date, all schedule and job information is analyzed together to create a day's automation.
OpCon uses specific rules to name and track schedules and jobs in the daily queue.
When OpCon runs a job, the agent on the target machine captures job output and saves it to one or more files.
