Adding a Background Job

Purpose

The Add Job function is used when a background job from the iCDR is available but does not yet appear in the job list. Adding a job makes it visible in the Background Jobs panel, where it can run on its schedule.

👥 Clinical users cannot create brand new jobs — they can only add jobs that are already available.

---

Available Jobs

The Register Job window shows a list of jobs that can be added. These jobs are provided by the system (iCDR).

Adding a Job

🚧 To add a job, please follow the steps below:

1

Click the Add button in the top left corner of the Background Jobs panel.

A Register Job window will appear.

2

Locate the job you want to add from the list of available jobs.

Only jobs provided by the system (iCDR) will appear here.

3

Click the Register button next to the job.

A confirmation pop-up will appear asking if you want to register the job.

4

Click OK to confirm.

The windows will close, and a notification will confirm that the job was registered.

If you don’t see the success notification, the job may not have been added. Try again or contact support.

5

Verify that the job was successfully added.

Go back to the System → Background Jobs page and check that the new job appears in the table.
