Enter the following information in the job entry fields.

Field

Description

Entry Name

The unique name of the job entry on the canvas. A job entry can be placed on the canvas several times; however, it will be the same job entry.

Job

Specify your job by entering in its path or clicking Browse.

If you select a job that has the same root path as the current job, the variable ${Internal.Entry.Current.Directory} will automatically be inserted in place of the common root path. For example, if the current job's path is/home/admin/transformation.kjb and you select a job in the folder /home/admin/path/sub.kjb then the path will automatically be converted to**$\{Internal.Entry.Current.Directory\}**/path/sub.kjb.

If you are working with a repository, specify the name of the job. If you are not working with a repository, specify the XML file name of the job.

Note: Jobs previously specified by reference are automatically converted to be specified by the job name within the Pentaho Repository.
