Using Job Steps

The job framework includes some out-of-the-box system steps. When you use system steps in a job flow, you don't have to do any coding, although most job steps require that you configure some parameters. If there is no system step that does what you want to do, a developer must create a custom job step.

For details about the system job steps that are available to use in jobs, refer to B2C Commerce Job Steps.

  • Creating Custom Job Steps
    If there is no system step that does what you need to do, a developer must develop a custom job step. The developer first writes a task-oriented or chunk-oriented CommonJS script module or a legacy pipeline to describe what the step does. The developer includes the module or pipeline in a cartridge along with a JSON or XML file that describes the step, and then uploads the cartridge to the site. The custom steps are then available to the administrator creating jobs. The topics in this section are for developers.
