Issue/Introduction

Using DUEOUT with "OPTIONS DUEOUTPROPAGATION" in ESP Procedures, and want to know if following can be done:
Set different colors on Workstation Workload director, for the critical JOB DUEOUT overdue and its Predecessors'  propagated overdue.

Environment

Component: ESP Workstation
Release 11.3

Resolution

Here is the field to distinguish if it's the critical JOB is overdue or its predecessors are overdue:
The SystemStatus field contains 'LATE" for the JOB overdue by dueout propagation.
 
Add the custom view "OVERDUE_P"(for JOBs overdue by propagation), following can be defined:

- Filter: ( Conditions Contains overdue ) And ( System Status Contains LATE )
- color&font: unselect "Use State Colors", and select "yellow" under "foreground".

And in the existing custom view OVERDUE, change the filter as below:
( Conditions Contains overdue ) And ( System Status Does not contain LATE )

Note: 'LATE' is in the SystemStatus when the propagated overdue JOBs are in Wait or Hold or Submitted status, and it's gone after the JOBs' run.
