# Working with jobs

Create, configure, and then run jobs to orchestrate ETL activities. After running a transformation, analyze its results to identify possible improvements or problems.

* [Create a job](https://docs.pentaho.com/pba/pipeline-designer/working-with-jobs/create-a-job)

  Create a job to coordinate resources, execution, and dependencies of an ETL activity.
* [Edit job properties](https://docs.pentaho.com/pba/pipeline-designer/working-with-jobs/edit-job-properties)

  Job properties control how a job behaves and how it logs what it is doing. 
* [Run a job](https://docs.pentaho.com/pba/pipeline-designer/working-with-jobs/run-a-job)

  After you create a job and configure its properties, you can run the job. You can control how the job runs without modifying the job itself by configuring run options before running the job.
* [Analyze your job results](https://docs.pentaho.com/pba/pipeline-designer/working-with-jobs/analyze-job-results)

  After running a job, see how it performed, if errors occurred, and explore the data by viewing the logs.
