To define a SMART Folder, select the check box and see SMART Folder parameters.

Control-M/Server

Defines the name of the Control-M/Server (or Control-M for z/OS) that processes the job.

Order Method

Defines the method for ordering the entity as one of the following:

• Automatic (Daily): When set to Automatic, at the same time each day (known as New Day time), each Control-M/Server runs a procedure called New Day. This procedure performs a number of tasks, including scheduling the day’s jobs, and running maintenance and cleanup utilities. The New Day procedures orders the folder or folder jobs.
• None (Manual Order): The folder is not automatically ordered.
• Specific User Daily: Identifier used to assign the folder to a specific User Daily job. The User Daily name is ordered at a specific time of the day. For load balancing purposes, the User Daily jobs are scheduled for different times, throughout the day, other than the New Day time.

User Daily name

If the Site Standard field is set to None, there are no Business parameters displayed.
