8.4.7 Displaying jobs in a specified execution status

In JP1/Software Distribution Manager, you can display the execution status of only certain jobs. This enables you to view only jobs in which an error occurred, or only jobs that completed successfully, for example. To display only those jobs with a particular execution status, from the View menu, select Filter and specify the display condition in the Filter dialog box. After you have displayed the jobs in the particular execution status, you can display all jobs by going to the View menu and selecting All Job Types.

The items you can specify in the Filter dialog box are explained below.
