Using the Job System, you can create a job by clicking Create Job in the Job Activity page and selecting the job type from the Select Job Type dialog. You can find a specifc job type by either searching for the name of a job type or by specifying a target type.

The most commonly used types are as follows:

• OS Command — Runs an operating system command or script.

• SQL Script — Runs a user-defined SQL or PL/SQL script.

• Multi-Task — Use to specify primary characteristics for multi-task jobs or corrective actions. Multi-task jobs enable you to create composite jobs by defining tasks, with each task functioning as an independent job. You edit and define tasks similarly to a regular job.
