Job Move Method

I have a group of items with very simple BOMs - one operation and one material. I want to have the Job Orders for these completed when a button is pushed. I have looked at the Posted Job Transactions form and it appears the method JobJobP2 can be used, but I get zero results when I try this. Has anyone done anything like this and have some insight?

This is the Method:
IDO: SL.SLJobTrans
METHOD: JobJobP2
VAR V(PostCompleteVar), VAR V(PostNegativeInventoryVar), VAR V(StartJobVar), VAR V(EndJobVar), VAR V(StartSuffixVar), VAR V(EndSuffixVar), VAR V(StartTransDateVar), VAR V(EndTransDateVar), VAR V(StartEmpNumVar), VAR V(EndEmpNumVar), VAR V(StartDeptVar), VAR V(EndDeptVar), VAR V(StartShiftVar), VAR V(EndShiftVar), VAR V(StartUserCodeVar), VAR V(EndUserCodeVar), VAR V(HourlyVar) V(SalaryVar) V(NonEmployeeVar), VAR V(FormCurWhse), VAR V(), VAR V(), RVAR V(PromptMessage), RVAR V(HourlyVar) V(SalaryVar) V(NonEmployeeVar), VAR, VAR, VAR V(BackFlushFromJobForVar)

This is what I get back:

SL.SLJobTrans.JobJobP2( PARMS(VAR ~LIT~(1), VAR ~LIT~(1), VAR ~LIT~(1234587696), VAR ~LIT~(1234587696), VAR ~LIT~(), VAR ~LIT~(9999), VAR ~LIT~(), VAR ~LIT~(), VAR ~LIT~(), VAR ~LIT~(), VAR ~LIT~(), VAR ~LIT~(), VAR ~LIT~(), VAR ~LIT~(), VAR ~LIT~(), VAR ~LIT~(), VAR ~LIT~(H) ~LIT~(S) ~LIT~(N), VAR ~LIT~(MAIN), VAR , VAR , RVAR , RVAR Cancel|OK-Q, VAR, VAR, VAR ~LIT~(0)) ERRORMESSAGE(mBackEndMessage) SUCCESSMESSAGE(mBackEndMessage) )

We do the same thing! We have items with 1 operation and minimal material. We close via event system.

This is the function we use to insert the unposted job transaction:

And then we run a background task for JobJobP2:

We do this wide open, however you could substitute the 3rd and 4th blank options with your job number to filter it.

Ryan - My plan is to have one button that creates the job, copies the BOM, and then moves the job to complete. Are you saving the job information in Unposted Job Transactions before the event runs? I am wondering if that is required?

We have the job # before the event runs so we can issue material. The unposted job transaction is saved before the background task runs, but its in the same application event. So in your case what I would try is do the job create, run JobOrdersCopyJobSp to copy the BOM into the job, set the job to released and then do the close? I am not sure about issuing materials though - that I have not automated.

I have the Job creation and BOM copy processes working. I have to move the job before I can close it so that material and labor will be issued and that is what I want to use the JobJobP2 to do (unless someone knows a better SP to use?). I am thinking though that I have to create the record in SLJobTrans (like Unposted Job Transactions does) before the JobJobP2 SP will be successful?
