## What It Is

Process Jobs (also called Job Definitions) are groups of one or more process definitions (or other jobs) bundled together to run as a single scheduled unit. A job executes its constituent processes in a defined sequence or in parallel, depending on the job definition.

psLens allows you to browse job definitions, inspect the list of items inside each job, and check their execution sequence.

## Search Page

URL: `/processjobs?db={database}`

* **Search:** Search for job definitions by job name (prefix match).
* **Metadata Card:** Results display the job description, owner, and modification timestamps.

## Detail Page

URL: `/processjobs/{JOBNAME}?db={database}`

The Detail Page displays:

* **Job Properties:** Basic settings, such as description, run control validation, and server settings.
* **Job Items & Sequence:** A table showing all processes and sub-jobs nested within this job, including:
  * Run order/sequence number.
  * Process Type and Process Name.
  * Description.
  * Run mode (e.g., Serial, Parallel).
* **Export as Markdown:** Export the job definition and its sequence table to a markdown document.
