Jobs Editor (SQL Server)

Go Up to Microsoft SQL Server Object Editors

The Jobs Editor lets you modify the definition of a SQL Agent job.

To edit a job

1. Open an editor on the job. For details, see Opening an Object Editor.
2. Use the following table as a guide to understanding and modifying the settings on the tabs of this editor:

Tab	Settings and tasks
Properties	This tab/panels lets you specify an Enabled/disabled status and select a Category, as well as specify notify and delete levels for the job. For details on these settings, see Jobs (SQL Server) - Properties.
Steps	This tab/panels lets you work with the steps for a job, including subsystem specifics, success/failure/ retry details, and logging and file specifications. For details on these settings, see Jobs (SQL Server) - Steps.
