In Workflow mode, click this button to create a new job. The Create a
Job dialog box opens. See Creating and Editing Deployment Jobs,
page 8-36.
Open button
(Workflow mode only.)
In Workflow mode, click this button to open the selected job. The Edit

Close button
(Workflow mode only.)
In Workflow mode, click this button to close and save all changes made
while the selected job was open. You can close a job when it is in the
Edit Open or the Submit Open state. Normally, you do not need to close
a job, because you will typically submit, approve, deploy, or schedule
the job for deployment. However, if the Security Manager server is
suddenly unavailable or your login session times out, a job might be left
in the Edit Open state. If this happens, you can close it manually by
selecting it and clicking Close.
Submit button

In Workflow mode, click this button to submit the selected job for
approval. You can submit a job when it is in the Edit or the Edit Open
state. The Submit Deployment Job dialog box opens. See Submitting
Deployment Jobs, page 8-39.
This button is active only if you are using Workflow mode with a
deployment job approver.
