Description:
By default all Autosys Job Types are shown within "Filter Job Types' when "Customize" button is selected in the Application Editor and/or Quick Edit in WCC. How can you modify this list of Job Types.
Solution:
By default all Autosys Job Types are listed within "Filter Tob Types' when "Customize" button is selected in the Application Editor (APPEDIT) and/or Quick Edit (QEDIT). As there are many job types it might be the case that there are several job types which doesn't apply to your environment as you don't have for example any z/OS or JMX-MBean jobs in your shop.
You can use the utility 'filter_utility' to remove them showing up in the Application Editor. This will limit the number of Job Types shown in the list and the user needs to scroll less into this window.
The output of the list command will show you which ones are selected to show up (= Available job types) as well as the ones who have been deselected (= Unavailable job types).
You can run at any time 'filter_jobtype'-uitlity again to add the removed job types back to the Available list so that they will show up again for your users.
