Introduction

Data Definitions and Triggers offer the flexibility of storing and printing additional information.

This document provides instructions for automating a process to be prompted for required information at various job stages. 

Defining job data collection fields is a two-step process:

  1. Setting up the data collection fields (the information for which you get prompted)
