AUTO_VALIDATE_JOBS
BOOLEAN
When the last sample in a production or internal job is stamped as validated, and a cascade is being performed to determine whether the job should be stamped as validated, then:
- If checked (default on deploy) and the AUTO_COMPLETE_JOBS application preference is checked, then the job's Workflow Status becomes Completed if it is not already completed, and the job's Validated Date is stamped if it is not already validated.
- If checked (default on deploy) and the AUTO_COMPLETE_JOBS application preference is cleared, then the job's Workflow Status becomes Released if it is not already released, but does not proceed to Completed, nor is the job's Validated Date stamped (such that the job needs to be completed manually, and as soon as it becomes completed then it is validated automatically).
- If cleared (default if missing) and the AUTO_COMPLETE_JOBS application preference is checked, then the job's Workflow Status becomes Completed if it is not already completed, but the job's Validated Date is not stamped (such that the job needs to be validated manually).
- If cleared (default if missing) and the AUTO_COMPLETE_JOBS application preference is checked, then the job's Workflow Status becomes Released if it is not already released, but does not proceed to Completed, nor the job's Validated Date stamped (such that the job needs to be completed and validated manually).
