A job is one or more processes set up to run sequentially. These processes do not have to be exclusively Tagged Import Processes. For example, one job can be made up of a TIP process and a COLD process. The main benefit of a job is that it runs a series of processes automatically. It is not necessary to wait for one process to finish before starting another.

- Select Process Job from the left side of the TIP window.
- Right-click on the right side of the window and select Create New Job.
- Enter the name for the job and click Apply.
- Select the job on the right side of the screen.

Right-click and select Configure Job. The Process Job Configuration screen is displayed.
