View the status of a job
After you assign a software configuration to user accounts or change an existing software configuration that you assigned to
user accounts, the BlackBerry Administration Service creates a job to deliver BlackBerry Device Software, BlackBerry Java
applications, or application settings to BlackBerry devices. If you assign an IT policy to user accounts or change an existing
IT policy, a job sends the IT policy changes to BlackBerry devices. You can view the status of a job to determine if it is ready
to run, currently running, completed, or completed with task failures.

View the status of a task
Each deployment job consists of multiple tasks. Each task delivers a specific object or setting to a BlackBerry device that
carries out an action, for example, updating BlackBerry Device Software, installing or removing a BlackBerry Java
Application, or applying updated IT policy settings or application settings. You can view the status of tasks. If a BlackBerry
Enterprise Server does not complete a task, you can view error messages that help you troubleshoot the task failure.
