Holding and Releasing Jobs

You can hold or release jobs and their associated spooled files from the Jobs page and several other pages in Robot Schedule. Use the Hold override code to keep the job from running. The job won't run until after you remove the override.

A red icon The Held job icon. indicates that a job is being held.

  2. If this is an active job, you're asked if you also want to hold all the spooled files (the default setting). Check the box to do so, though this doesn't prevent them from printing.
