RE: Batch Job and Auto start Job Entry

["Wilt, Charles" <WiltC@xxxxxxxxxx>]

With autostart jobs, the only way to reset them is to end the subsystem and restart.

So having the job in it's own subsystem like Paul does is a good idea.

On the other hand, you could also use a pre-start job. Which can be ended and restarted without ending
the sub system.

Here's some explanations of the two:

Autostart:

Prestart:
