Best pratice

When you are developing a job, set the status to Draft and when it is ready for production, set the status to Production. Later when you will have to monitor several jobs in production, and you will have to detect jobs in error, it will allow to simply filter Jobs in status Production and Error, without the draft ones.

Then click on the button Create job to save the job.

This will open the Actions tab, then click on the job you just have started this will open the execution tab
